failure in parsing HTTPRequestLine

Is this is a bug in Swazoo or my Firefox?
    

I didn't have first request line parsing errors for ages so I'm really 
interested what is happening in your case. Can you spy a network and 
record, what is actually flowing on the wire? With Ethereal or similar 
spy/network monitor. That way we will find a cause most efficiently.

  

Hi Andreas,

Now I know what is a problem and it is patched (I cannot say solved:) in 
  latest Swazoo 2.1.

Namely POSTs are somehow not parsed completelly and it seems a byte or 
so sometimes stay unparsed. But parsed content is correct anyway. That's 
why I didn't go deeper (besides I didn't have time). Quick solution is 
simply to close connection after a post and that's in Swazoo 2.1 in 
method HTTPConnection produceResponseFor: .

Because POSTs are relatively rare comparing to GETs I think such quick 
problem solution won't affect Swazoo performance in general.

I hope this help a bit

Hi Janko,

i have spied out the network traffic with the result, that there is no failure. The requests are all ok. It seems, that POST requests are parsed two times. I get one correct POST request and then i get the same one again, but this time only a part of the post data. And on trying to get the request type occurs the error. I am not sure why this happens, perhaps why the post data seems not to be parsed?

regards
Andreas
