In my configuration, my ICAP server returns to Squid either an HTTP

Squid has a chance to consume any of the data in
"ModXact::virgin::body_pipe".


In my case, this is a valid use case.  The adapted response should be
forwarded to the HTTP client, but it is not.  Instead, squid is
waiting for "ServerStateData::virginBodyDestination" (which is a
reference to "ModXact::virgin::body_pipe") to be destroyed.

In Squid's code, in the function "BodyPipe::clearConsumer" I found
the comment saying

        // do not abort if we have not consumed so that HTTP or ICAP
can retry
        // benign xaction failures due to persistent connection race
conditions

My understanding is that this is controlled by icap_retry?  Is the
condition described above considered by Squid as a failure, or is this
a bug in Squid (I already opened a Squid bug 3595 on this topic)?

In my squid config file I put the directive icap_retry allow all, to
no avail.  Or is the condition above handled by another configuration
directive?

I am using squid 3.1.15.


The dev who know most about adaptation implementation do not follow this group closely. The bug report is the best avenue for this. If you want a faster poke, try posting to squid-dev.
