> Hi, Hi Very strange. Looks like your backend server's response is not starting with a HTTP status line[1], like: HTTP/1.x 200 OK [1]http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html Even if proxy instance is making an bad request (due a bug or something, which I don't think so), the backend one should answer with: HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request For instance. Try telneting (or use netcat) to your backend server's HTTP port and make a simple request, like: GET / HTTP/1.1 Host: put.your.hostname.here Connection: close <enter> And investigate it's response.
