[MKDoc-dev] [BUG] MKDoc 1.6 Problems with HTTP headers

Thu Apr 28 14:07:06 BST 2005

Hi

In general the way MKDoc does HTTP headers seems a mess, and if you make
requests using telnet there is an extra line before the start of the
document which seems odd and contains strings like "4bce" or "45a0".

Error documents have more stuff added in before the document, and on
some servers this seems to result in clients rendering the documents as
plain text, for example:

 HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
 Date: Thu, 28 Apr 2005 12:54:01 GMT
 Server: Apache/1.3.33 (Unix) mod_perl/1.29
 Transfer-Encoding: chunked
 Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8

 <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC
   "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"

Things get worse if MKDoc::Apache_Cache is used...

I have writted this up in more detail here:
