Package: apache Version: 1.3.26-0woody6 Weird one this. I realise Woody is no longer stable, we plan an upgrade, however this bug is biting us.
A form submission to a Apache will hang it on the sixth submission. To reproduce, take some html such as: <body> <form action="./formtest.php" method="POST" name="form"> <input type="hidden" name="anything" value="alsoanything"> <input type="submit"> </form> </body> </html> save in a .php script, and load the page. Click the submit button six times. On the sixth time, your connection will hang. Same for perl. Save as a .pl script, wrap it in some print statements, add a header, and voila - breakage on the sixth click. I can reproduce this on three servers.
