Hello, I really think that HTTP Client has a bug somewhere that allows it to hang indefinitely when it encounters cases like this one.
This is my log line indicating that fetching started. Note the time: 16:20. D=2001-12-11 16:20:36,150 T=main L=INFO C=OGLib.fetchers.http.JakartaHTTPClientFetcher M=Fetching from cscns.com:80/11/News%20and%20Information/itn This thing hangs for a while, so I check the time: otis@linux1 $ date Tue Dec 11 16:35:16 EST 2001 So it's been hanging for 15". What is wrong with that server, manual check: otis@linux1 3 $ telnet cscns.com 80 Trying 63.87.43.246... Connected to cscns.com. Escape character is '^]'. GET /11/News%20and%20Information/itn HTTP/1.0 <me hitting enter> Connection closed by foreign host. So the server is obviously messed up and HTTP Client doesn't know that it should release the connection. :( Any ideas?
