Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, I am writing to ask your help with an intermittent problem with I think the read() system call in FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE. Apache 1.3.9 reports ap_bgets() returned length -1 when it reads large (order 1 MB) RFC 1867 file uploads from a fill-out form (NB apache does not use CGI to read the form. This apache proxys the request to a server that processes the form). My reading of the apache code is that ap_bgets() (defined in src/main/buff.c) ultimately uses the system call read(). The problem host is a Dell 4300 with one 450Mhz CPU, 1 GB of memory, and I think the load average is no more than 0.1. The kernel defines 256 users. What should I do ? Thank you, Yours sincerely Network Specialist IP Australia +61 2 6283 3189 +61 2 6281 1353 FAX To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
