When using apache as a proxy server you get problems with some ftp sites. The symptom is that the transfer stalls at the end of the transfer. The apache proxy server is supposed to close the data socket at the end of a FTP data transfer before reading the control socket. The apache module does it in the other sequence. There is an open bug report in the apache bug register under the component proxy-mod, keyword ftp. You may look there for further information. Villy
Unable to duplicate. Please upgrade to a more current version from 6.2-Rawhide-Pinstripe and re-test with more data. Henri J.Schlereth RH Beta Team
As the Apache group has not fixed the bug amn there is no redhat supplied patches that fixes it in version 1.3.12-20, the bug must be present in this version as well. Check the Apache bug archive for bug number 6268 and 5562. Also check the latest changes to wu-ftpd for the changes that makes this problem appear in apache and why this change was made to wu-ftpd. These reports also givse information on how to reproduce the problem, as the problem may not have shown up with the sites you have tested. The entry for PR6268 in the apache bug list contains a patch that is supposed to fix this. The Apache group has not reported whether this has been tested by them or if this is indeed the proper patch for this problem. It works for me, though. Villy
