Hi Pankaj., This difference in the HTTP response header is very critical. It influences the way in which the Client is going to behave.
In case of 1, as the "Connection: Close" header is sent as part of the response, the http server will initiate the tcp teardown and need not bother sending the content length of the application payload. In case of 2, the client is expected to keep the HTTP connection alive, so that perhaps subsequent http requests can be pipelined, this is a feature of HTTP1.1. when a 302 is sent from the server, it means that either a "REDIRECT" req needs to be sent by the client as the "http resource" is not available in the requested path, so this redirect url will be as part of the "Redirect" header of the HTTP response, also as the connection keep alive has been set, the redirect request from the client will have to go on the same tcp connection over which the 302 was got, which is not supported by your ssl server? Thanks --Gayathri When I tried to print the values returned by BIO_read it shows -1, 8, 12, 30, 24, 79, 407, 47, 10, 2, 61, 2, 3, 2, 80, 2, 2, -1, -1, -1......... , -1 I tried to catch the error using perror which shows the error message "Error 0" till the return value 2, after that "Resource temporarily unavailable" for all "-1" returned values. If you want to see code then let me know. On 12/28/05, Pankaj <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I am quite new for the OpenSSL programming.
