Hi,
I had a very strange situation earlier.
He have a site behind a haproxy/nginx combination, it has been working
for years.
(It's Windows).
However, suddenly I get L7 timeouts.
But curl to the healthcheck URL works perfectly.
The output I get looks like this:
��server_up
Piping curl through cat -v looks like this:
M-^?M-~s^@e^@r^@v^@e^@r^@_^@u^@p^@^M^@
^@
They have started to generate this file via a powershell script and it
has inserted a byte-order-mark into the file (BOM).
Took a while to figure this out ;-)
haproxy 1.6.9 (FreeBSD 10-amd64) seems to actually choke on these files
and hang - I had to kill -9 it.
After replacing the file with its previous, ASCII-only copy, everything
started to work again.
Can anyone reproduce this?
Maybe it's fixed in later versions?
Regards
Rainer
