Hi,
after some debugging of a WebDAV server (trytond), dropping connections
shortly after accepting them, I found the issue:
class BaseThreadedHTTPServer(SocketServer.ThreadingMixIn,
BaseHTTPServer.HTTPServer):
def server_bind(self):
# Python < 2.6 doesn't handle self.timeout
self.socket.settimeout(1)
(http://hg2.tryton.org/trytond/file/28c6cc9fe39f/trytond/protocols/webdav.py#l83)
It runs fine after removing the call to "settimeout". The value does not
seem to make a difference.
I guess, this works for other OSs as the software is in production. It
fails however in a FreeBSD 8.1 jail.
What's the cause of the problem? How can I fix it without breaking it for
other people?
Kind regards,
--
