RE: errno=5 in SSL_read( )

[Gayathri Sundar]

I too faced similar problem when I pumped heavy data via smart bits..

this piece of code worked for me..btw the underlying bio in non blocking..

 

 

 do
  {
    ERR_clear_error();
    nbytesread = SSL_read(pSSLObject,pBuffer,BufSize);
    if(nbytesread > 0 )
    {
       totalbytesread += nbytesread;
       pBuffer = pBuffer + nbytesread;
       BufSize -= nbytesread;
    }
    if(errno == EAGAIN || errno == EINTR || errno == ENOMEM)
    {
      return (SSL_ERROR_NONE);
    }
    else if(!nbytesread)
    {
      return (-1 * SSL_ERROR_ZERO_RETURN);
    }
    else
    {
      err = SSL_get_error(pSSLObject,nbytesread);
      break;
    }
  }while(SSL_pending(pSSLObject) && (BufSize > 0));

Subject: errno=5 in SSL_read( )

Hi,

I'm using openssl v0.9.7i. When I try to receive a huge amount of data sometimes I get errno=5(SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL) and the exact response code is "EOF was observed that violates the protocol". At some cases when this error occurs, I get TCP ZeroWindowViolation in ethereal's trace log. I like to know what could be the reason and how can I override this.

Thanks in advance.
