mod_cache/mod_cache_disk responses missing Content-Type header

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

 

for our customer we set up several Apache httpds (Server version: Apache/2.4.16 (Amazon)) in Amazon Web Services EC2 instances across the world. These httpds act mainly as caching proxies that are connected to a central web application. For caching we use mod_cache_disk.

A couple of days ago one instance served responses with missing Content-Type and Content-Encoding header, resulting in download dialogs popping up when customer tried to open the page, as the content was interpreted as application/octet-stream. The downloaded data was the expected response: a gzip-compressed html-file. We could tell that the data was served from the cache as we add a custom response header that states if there was a cache-hit or not. So we took a look at the relevant *.header-file of the cache entry of the page but it didn’t have any abnormalities.

After clearing the cache manually everything went back to normal.

 

Does this behavior sound familiar to anybody?

 

Regards,

Alexander
