Hi, I'm running varnish 2.0.6 under centos 5.4:
varnish-libs-2.0.6-2.el5 varnish-2.0.6-2.el5 I'm setting up a media server and would like to use varnish for caching some of the heavily requested medias (mp3, mp4 ... ). I've a few questions regarding media broadcasting with varnish. mp3: progressive download is used in order to read mp3 from the webpages, is it foreseen to have a function to would allow providing the media before it gets completely retrieved by varnish from the backend ? mp4: how is handled Accept-range field in the header, does varnish supports it ? Trying to retrieve a mp4 file from apache gives me the following response: HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Tue, 15 Jun 2010 14:24:46 GMT Server: Apache Last-Modified: Mon, 14 Jun 2010 18:01:41 GMT ETag: "2d4d6-1c7d167-4890147e4eb40" Accept-Ranges: bytes Content-Length: 29872487 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 with varnish in the middle: HTTP/1.1 200 OK Server: Apache Last-Modified: Mon, 14 Jun 2010 18:01:41 GMT ETag: "2d4d6-1c7d167-4890147e4eb40" Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Length: 29872487 X-ece-cache: server-01-03.arteria.tsr Cache-Control: max-age=43200 X-ece-was-cached: media: 12h and max-age=43200, age 0 Date: Tue, 15 Jun 2010 14:26:15 GMT X-Varnish: 321078687 321076768 Via: 1.1 varnish Connection: keep-alive Age: 0 The Accept-Ranges field is lost, do you know why ?
