After a bit more digging and understanding how the various modules were working together I've discovered that: 1) HTTP::Server::Simple appears to be working as expected and as per RFC whilst HTTP::Async was basically exploiting the fact that HTTP::Server::Simple didn't comform to RFC so was able to use it as a proxy which is now broken. 2) HTTP::Server::Simple has no idea it's being used as a proxy 3) The "proxy server" is implemented in libhttp-async-perl/t/TestServer.pm [1] >> But I may very well be wrong on this... so I'm open to suggestions from >> the group. > > Maybe you could try and ask upstream about it? I shall contact the Upstream Author of HTTP::Async first, as that project has seen the latest activity. HTTP::Server::Simple doesn't appear to have had any activity since May 2012 when 0.45_02 developer release was made.
