Thanks for the tip, but I now tried with different haeders (didn't even
include the user-agent header on first attempts). I have experimented with
both HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/1.0, kept-alive and closed connections, with and
without specifying the host, with different user-agents and even from
different IPs... And nothing seems to make any difference. I now get the 302
error on all attempts.
The rebol console looks like this:
[We send:]
GET /article.cgi?i=400&r=0 HTTP/1.1
Host: www.linuxtelephony.org
connection: close
user-agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0)
HTTP/1.1 302 Moved Temporarily
** Script Error: Out of range or past end
** Near: not empty? reply: first port
>>
When I probe the port, I see this:
state: make object! [
flags: 791107
misc: [144 [] 0]
tail: 0
num: 1
with: "^M^/"
custom: none
index: 0
func: 3
fpos: 0
inBuffer: "^/"
... Could it be that the server says it's newlines are "^M^/", but the last
newline it actually sends, is only "^/"?
I put everything in a file: http://babelserver.org/ strange.txt
if anyone would like to have a look.
