Hi, I've been investigating a problem with our proxy failing on large downloads. We have an Apache proxy setup in a datacenter that forwards requests to another Apache server in another datacenter. Any download initiated from a machine through the proxy or from the proxy server itself directly to the main Apache server will fail about half the time. Any download initiated directly to the main server from anywhere that's not the proxy server will work every time. I've taken tcpdumps on my client, on the proxy and on the server behind the proxy. It seems that the server behind the proxy initiates a TCP RST which causes the download to fail. When the download fails, it's usually very early on in the download. Within a few seconds. I have no idea why the main Apache server would send a RST. I have the tcpdump files and apache config files available upon request. The configs are pretty standard. <Proxy> and ProxyPass. For the main server, the files that are failing are PDFs being served through <Directory> and Alias. Everything else is default KeepAlive, timeouts, etc. I played with proxy-initial-not-pooled, but it didn't change anything. I appreciate any guidance on this issue.
