Hi Christian, Looks good. Thank you for preparing this. A couple of questions:
Do you have permission to edit the bug description at the top? We usually put the SRU paperwork there, but I don't know who can do it. I'll copy it up there for you now. The "Test Case" is pretty minimal. Usually we want enough instructions that someone not familiar with the package can verify both the failure and success cases without having to infer things about the test environment which may lead to failure to reproduce. You said "but we have to rely on a real test by the reporter". Do you mean that this bug cannot easily be reproduced by someone else? ** Description changed: + [Impact] + * hang until ProxyTimeout timeout if ProxyErrorOverride is set + * see https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=53420 for more + + [Test Case] + * use the feature of https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_proxy.html#proxyerroroverride + + [Regression Potential] + * the patch is small and already backported by Apache people which is good + * The changes are local to mod_proxy only which should limit the potential fallout + * all basic tests I did still work, but we have to rely on a real test by the reporter from proposed for the actual Test + + [Original Description] + Like described in #53420 [1] there is a bug in Apache 2.4.x which is fixed in 2.4.11. This bug leads to slow 404 responses when ProxyErrorOverride is activated. -------------------- When setting ProxyErrorOverride to "On" to get the httpd-ErrorDocument instead of the backend-errordoc, httpd is waiting "ProxyTimeout" seconds to respond to the client, even though the response is already read from backend server. -------------------- The bug is fixed in 2.4.11 [2]. Is there any chance to get this fix into the Ubuntu package for 14.04 LTS?
