#34537 [Opn->Fbk]: Last-Modified header + Status: 200 results in 200 OK without body

ID: 34537 Updated by: rasmus@php.net Reported By: alisencer at gmail dot com -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: CGI related Operating System: FreeBSD PHP Version: 5.0.5 New Comment: Does the same thing happen under Apache1? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-09-19 01:58:36] alisencer at gmail dot com Hi Sniper, thanks for your quick reply. I think there's a misunderstatement. I know HTTP headers and how they work. Please re-read the bug-report. I am setting 200 OK and sending a body. Something along the way decides it should be a 304, but does NOT change the status-code. Instead it silently drops the body of the response. I don't know what this something along the way is - it might be PHP or it might be Apache2. But I doubt that this would be expected behaviour. Thanks for your reconsideration and effort. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-09-18 22:25:07] sniper@php.net Expected behaviour. Please read more about the headers at: http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-09-17 13:40:09] alisencer at gmail dot com Description: ------------ This is with Apache2 (PHP as CGI). When setting a Last-Modified header, apache/php automatically sets a 304 header and sends no body. However if I additionally manually override the Status header with header("Status: 200 OK"); The webserver responds with a 200 OK, however without any body. It also keeps the HTTP-Connection open until the timeout. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php header("Status: 200 OK"); header("Last-Modified: Fri, 26 Aug 2005 11:53:55 GMT"); echo "test"; ?> curl -D - -H 'If-Modified-Since: Sat, 17 Sep 2005 09:18:01 GMT' http://url Expected result: ---------------- == HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Sat, 17 Sep 2005 11:25:37 GMT Last-Modified: Fri, 26 Aug 2005 11:53:55 GMT test == Or alternatively: == HTTP/1.1 304 Not Modified Date: Sat, 17 Sep 2005 11:26:16 GMT == Actual result: -------------- HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Sat, 17 Sep 2005 11:25:45 GMT Server: Apache (and then it hangs for a while, but no body is sent [checked with Ethereal]). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=34537&edit=1
