Description

About every 10:th or 20:th request to a "lighttpd proxy" will stall for server.max-keep-alive-idle seconds when run on FreeBSD 7.0 with freebsd-kqueue as event handler. With the poll handler, everything works as espected.

For clarification, no requests times out or gets dropped - they just gets stalled for a while.


The problem occurs with this simple config:
server.modules = (
    "mod_proxy" 
)
server.bind                     = "172.16.216.211" 
server.pid-file                 = "/var/run/lighttpd_lb_simple.pid" 
server.errorlog                 = "/var/log/tmp/lb_simple_error.log" 
server.event-handler            = "freebsd-kqueue" 
server.port                     = 80
server.max-keep-alive-idle      = 10
proxy.debug = 1
proxy.server  = ( "" => ( ( "host" => "172.16.216.201" ) ) )
server.document-root            = "/tmp" 

Here is the debug output:

<reading of the GET-request from browser for request B follows>

You can see that lighttpd is polling every second while the request is stalled.

Oh, and I can't trigger the error by doing just one request at a time. The error occurs when a browser loads a webpage with several requests.

  • Status changed from New to Fixed
  • Resolution set to invalid

It gets closed even before lighty sends the content (6 was the proxy fd, which i got from the error.log; but you should have seen that in the full trace too - btw, please give us the full trace next time):


2008-07-24 17:56:26: (mod_proxy.c.391) connect succeeded:  6 
[...]
CALL  close(6)

The other fd which gets closed the after keep-alive-timeout is 16, which is the connection to your browser, and that is perfectly valid.
