Description James Bowes 2009-03-05 13:36:27 UTC

For any GET requests, we also need to support HEAD requests, for download resumption.

Comment 1 James Bowes 2009-03-05 19:06:27 UTC

To Test:
 * Ensure regular GET requests still work against origin by pointing the fake cdn 
   at origin and running some requests
 * Ensure other GET requests still work (download a package with up2date, for  
   instance)
 * use fake-akamai.cgi --cli --head --verbose to issue a HEAD request against 
   origin, and verify that the file you "download" is empty

Comment 2 Amy Owens 2009-03-05 19:14:43 UTC

adding another test- do wget of a dvd iso that you know that akamai does not have and resume- make sure you do not get 500 error

Comment 3 Amy Owens 2009-03-05 19:38:54 UTC

* test 1 - PASS

* test 3 -  ./fake-akamai.cgi --cli --head --verbose https://origin.rhn.webdev.redhat.com/ /rhn/public/NULL/zsh/4.2.5-2/x86_64/zsh-4.2.5-2.x86_64.rpm
