Hello there,
We have some application encountering problems if it's communicating via
Squid:
- the application sends a HTTP/1.1 HEAD-Request with Proxy-Connection:
keep-alive set
- Squid then forwards the request to the server with Connection: keep-alive
- the server replies with the headers and a Connection: close header -
Squid returns the response with only Proxy-Connection: keep-alive to the
client which afterwards hangs
Is that the correct behavior or have we encountered a problem with Squid
itself?
Both Squid and the app are slightly broken.
The Proxy-Connection headers are not supposed to be sent. Your app and
squid are both supposed to send only Connection: and accept either
Proxy-Connection: or Connection: back.
There are some versions of Squid-3 prior to 3.1.7 which unfortunately
send Proxy-Connection so it will be around for a while. If you have one
please upgrade or apply patch:
