Is it possible that the /client/ is behind a (possibly transparent) proxy? In our environment we've had problems with proxies mangling the client's requests in this way (the request that actually makes it through has a 0 byte Content-Length); using HTTPS would prevent this from happening, since the proxy cannot see / modify the communication between the client and the destination web server (Apache, in your case). In some cases, this even persists beyond the three retries that Athena attempts, causing the client to experience unpredictable and unexpected disconnections. -- mithrandi, i Ainil en-Balandor, a faer Ambar _______________________________________________ Twisted-web mailing list [email protected] http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-web
