Re: force chunked encoding from polipo to client

Hi Fabrice,

Would it be possible for you to post a fullsize tcpdump of what the 
polipo receive and send out. Preferably two tcpdumps, one capture the 
traffic between the client and polipo, the other between polipo and the 
web server. The two tcpdumps should be captured at the same time while 
the problem is happening so that we can know what the polipo is dealing 
with.

One of the possible fix would be to tighten the cache control. To use 
some of the polipo's configure to make the offending page not cachable, 
such as don't cache page with Cookie.

Otherwise, yes polipo do send out cached page with content-length.

Regards,
Ming

I've set up polipo between the client and the server: it ALMOST works: replies from the proxy to the client start with chunked encoding, but after some packets are received, it seems that polipo buffers some replies from the server (that are in chunks themselves) and falls back to a "Content-length" encoding from the proxy to the client, so that the client fails.
