Description
The puffing billy gem is using evma_httpserver to simulate responses to javascript clients.
Intermittently a response is not getting back to the browser.
The puffing billy code (monkey patched to provide logging looks like this:)
Billy::ProxyConnection.send(:define_method, :send_response) do |response|
Billy.log(:info, "puffing-billing: send_response #{response[:status]}, #{response[:headers]}, '#{response[:content][0..10]}'")
res = EM::DelegatedHttpResponse.new(self)
res.status = response[:status]
res.headers = response[:headers]
res.content = response[:content]
res.send_response
Billy.log(:info, "puffing-billing: send_response SENT!")
endIn the resulting log I see this:
puffing-billing: send_response 200, {"Content-Type"=>"application/javascript;charset=utf-8", "Connection"=>"close", "Status"=>"200", "X-Powered-By"=>"Phusion Passenger (mod_rails/mod_rack) 3.0.11", "Content-Length"=>"1708", "Server"=>"nginx/1.0.14 + Phusion Passenger 3.0.11 (mod_rails/mod_rack)"}, 'jQuery11200'
puffing-billing: send_response SENT!
but the browser log looks like this:
This happens about 25 % of the time. When the response is successful everything looks exactly the same except in the browser net log I see 200 ... and 1708 bytes received.
The problem is NOT browser specific. I have tried the same scenario using poltergeist, with the same results.
It would be very difficult to get this into an isolated test case that I could share, but I would be happy to add logging to evma_httpserver, if I could have some clues WHAT to investigate. Also would be happy to set up a co-debug session on cloud9.
