I tried to run s_server (version 0.9.6l) with the following options:
openssl s_server -accept 443 -cert cert.pem -key key.pem -www
I use IE6.0 (with default settings) to connect to this server. It works
fine except when I press and *hold down* the F5 key (the shortcut key for
refreshing the page) to repeatedly reload the page. When I do that, I get
occasional errors:
1560:error:140780E5:SSL routines:SSL23_READ:ssl handshake
failure:.\ssl\s23_lib.c:180:
I am doing this because a similar problem occurs in my HTTPS application
that uses OpenSSL. When there are many simultaneous (or close to
simultaneous) connections from IE, SSL_accept() returns -1 occassionally
and SSL_get_error() returns SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL. I believe it is caused by
the same kind of handshake failure. I am able to repeat the problem with
s_server on both Win32 and Solaris 8.
Does anyone know if there is a workaround or should I use some special
options?
