What OS are you using? If you can, try recording the Apache<->SCGI server coversation using tcpdump. For example, if your SCGI server is listening on port 3000, as root run: > > # tcpdump -i lo -s 9000 -w capture.dat port 3000 > > After tcpdump is running then try reloading the page in your browser to provoke the problem. Use Control-C to stop capturing. If you send me the capture file then I will take a look at it. I sent the tcpdump files privately to Neil. If anyone wants a copy, let me know. Here's how they were built: 1) /var/www/localhost/htdocs is Apache's document root (Apache 2.0.52 on Linux Gentoo). Copied index.html.en to index.html. It displays apache_pb.png. 1) Modify Quixote 2.0a5 demo (root.ptl). In class RootDirectory add: apache = StaticDirectory("/var/www/localhost/htdocs/", follow_symlinks=True, index_filenames=["index.html"], list_directory=True) Add 'apache' to ._q_exports. 2) Start the demo SCGI server: python ~/lib/python/quixote/server/scgi_server.py --script-name=/shields-beta --max-children=1 --host=localhost --port=3000 3) Apache config has:Options Indexes Order Allow,deny Allow from all AddDefaultCharset iso-8859-1 SCGIServer localhost:3000 SCGIHandler On 4) Start "tcpdump -i lo -s 9000 -w /tmp/good.dat port 3000". Go to http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/shields-beta/apache/ in browser. Quit tcpdump. (Using http instead of https, unlike my other examples. Sending the request to my Ethernet IP to avoid mixing it with the inter-server traffic on the loopback.) 5) Start tcpdump to /tmp/reload.dat . Press Reload in browser. Internal Server Error appears in browser. Quit tcpdump. 6) Start tcpdump to /tmp/reload2.dat . Press Reload in browser. Page appears without the image. Quit tcpdump. 7) Start tcpdump to /tmp/zfinal.dat. Press Enter in browser's address box. Image reappears in page. Quit tcpdump. The SCGI server doth spit out the following at me during (4)-(7), using the Publisher patch I posted yesterday: ================================================= ===> Response [10798] started 2005-04-13 15:40:48.497818 ===> From 161.55.66.227 ===> Request /shields-beta/apache/ ===> Status 200 OK {'last-modified': 'Wed, 13 Apr 2005 00:00:33 GMT'} ===> Body is 1456 bytes ===> Response [10798] finished 2005-04-13 15:40:48.499855 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ================================================= ===> Response [10798] started 2005-04-13 15:40:48.518169 ===> From 161.55.66.227 ===> Request /shields-beta/apache/apache_pb.gif ===> Status 200 OK {'last-modified': 'Tue, 02 Nov 2004 18:29:18 GMT'} ===> Content-type is image/gif ===> Response [10798] finished 2005-04-13 15:40:48.518461 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ================================================= ===> Response [10798] started 2005-04-13 15:41:00.788479 ===> From 161.55.66.227 ===> Request /shields-beta/apache/ ===> Status 200 OK {'last-modified': 'Wed, 13 Apr 2005 00:00:33 GMT'} ===> Body is 1456 bytes ===> Response [10798] finished 2005-04-13 15:41:00.788840 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ================================================= ===> Response [10798] started 2005-04-13 15:41:06.835861 ===> From 161.55.66.227 ===> Request /shields-beta/apache/ ===> Status 200 OK {'last-modified': 'Wed, 13 Apr 2005 00:00:33 GMT'} ===> Body is 1456 bytes ===> Response [10798] finished 2005-04-13 15:41:06.836147 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ================================================= ===> Response [10798] started 2005-04-13 15:41:06.866162 ===> From 161.55.66.227 ===> Request /shields-beta/apache/apache_pb.gif ===> Status 200 OK {'last-modified': 'Tue, 02 Nov 2004 18:29:18 GMT'} ===> Content-type is image/gif ===> Response [10798] finished 2005-04-13 15:41:06.866437 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ================================================= ===> Response [10798] started 2005-04-13 15:41:30.638398 ===> From 161.55.66.227 ===> Request /shields-beta/apache/apache_pb.gif ===> Status 200 OK {'last-modified': 'Tue, 02 Nov 2004 18:29:18 GMT'} ===> Content-type is image/gif ===> Response [10798] finished 2005-04-13 15:41:30.638697 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ -- Mike Orr
