Package: python-cherrypy Version: 2.3.0-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch
Cheerypy does not parse cookie correctly resulting in bad gateway errors while used behind an haproxy load balancer. From what I've understand after some testing it works when you use a client that is lazy about cookie/headers syntax (firefox, or apache/mod_proxy aparently as it works before I switch to haproxy). But once you use an haproxy that add informations to cookies on the fly it generate a 502 Bad gateway error because they are malformated. I found the solution to my problem here http://www.formilux.org/archives/haproxy/0811/1516.html and the patch supllied fix the problem. --- cherrypy/_cphttptools.py.orig 2009-06-22 17:47:21.820961811 +0200 +++ cherrypy/_cphttptools.py 2009-06-22 17:47:32.948524301 +0200 @@ -430,7 +430,7 @@ cookie = self.simple_cookie.output() if cookie: - for line in cookie.split("\n"): + for line in cookie.split("\r\n"): name, value = line.split(": ", 1) self.header_list.append((name, value)) Maybe this problem exists elsewhere in the cherrypy code but for the moment this one fix my errors.
