Er, what's the difference between using "keepAlive setting" and "Connection: close"?

So, you have the client set "Connection: close" (which disables keep-alive) and then the configuration Mark proposed causes chunked encoding to be avoided. > So if it is > request for a web page, using keepAlive is fine.

I'm not sure if Mark was thinking client or server. I suppose server would be safer, since the server can make the decision and not have to ensure that clients are compliant. > Using > connection "close" implies that closing the connection indicates the > end of response and chunked encoding is not necessary in this case. So... everyone is happy, then, right? Are we arguing semantics, then? - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk0mL1QACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PBxKwCgqjbxMKY5WKqdVLR8Ay9TpA+h ojwAmwdQKzXFqiumBd8j40zEgym9NOeR =2fnQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
