Obviously you are not using Apache2, so

Description:
------------
After posting (method POST) a form (of any kind) the $_POST variable
does not get populated. This error is hard to reproduce as it occurs
sporadicily but sometimes more than once on the same form. Apparently
with under the same conditions it sometimes works and sometimes not.

I experience the problem (I believe) only using SSL. I'm using rewrite
rules, but the same as on other sites without SSL.

I read stuff about mentioning the action property in the form tag,
about GPC order, etc... but nothing I've tried can reduce the error to
it's origin. I do not know however how to check apache for incoming
POSTed data.

Apache:
Server      Version:      Apache/1.3.27     (Unix)     (Red-Hat/Linux)
   FrontPage/5.0.2.2623     mod_ssl/2.8.12    OpenSSL/0.9.6b   
PHP/4.3.4
   mod_perl/1.26 mod_python/2.7.6 Python/1.5.2 mod_webapp/1.2.0-dev
   Server Built: Dec 21 2003 12:00:54

Can you recommend me some actions ? I have not found any relevant info
on the web.
