Can someone verify this problem. It's simple to demonstrate
and it's driving me crazy.
A link that uses the fastcgi "echo" (Perl or C version) example
program works fine. But a FORM action set to call the fastcgi
echo program will hang.
My current setup:
perl5.004 compiled with sfio
fastcgi library 2.01b2.1 (from http://fastcgi.idle.com/ )
cgi-fcgi with Netscape Server 2.0 (also have 3.0)
FCGI.pm 0.31
Solaris 5.4 (I also have 5.5.1 available)
Using fastcgi 1.5.2 cgi-fcgi works fine!
Here's a little illustration of the parts to this puzzle:
===========================================================
Netscape Browser 3.01 ----------> Netscape Server 2.0
<form method="POST" |
action="/cgi-bin/echo.fcgi"> |
v
echo.fcgi (cgi-fcgi 2.01b2.1)
|
v
:port echo (C or perl version)
===========================================================
I'd appreciate any ideas on how to debug this problem. I've been
using "sudo truss -rall -wall -p pid" to connect to running fastcgi
processes then look through the system calls for clues. But first,
let me know if this is busted for anyone else.
Thanks,
Kelly
