Connection: keep-alive with Transfer-Encoding: chunked broken

[joshiste]

It looks to me as if the chunked encoding in combination with keep-alive is broken using reactor-netty 0.7.3.

If this is not a reactor-netty issue but spring or spring boot, please let me know.

Sample steps to reproduce:
checkout https://github.com/joshiste/reactor-netty-issue
and run mvn spring-boot:run

run requests with keep-alive: ab -n10 -l -c1 -k http://localhost:8080/ --> broken
run request without keep-alive: ab -n10 -l -c1 http://localhost:8080/ --> works

The exact dependency-versions are in dependencies.txt

same example using tomcat works like a charm...

Hi,

The issue here is that ab uses HTTP 1.0
#21 we need to introduce proper support for HTTP 1.0

As a workaround try to use wrk/wrk2 or other tool that supports HTTP 1.1

I'm experiencing the same issue when using chrome!

[violetagg]

What are the steps that you follow when requesting via Chrome?
Chrome version?

[joshiste]

Hmm I've a more complex application doing background fetches and after the fifth request the response just contains the headers and body is missing (figured out using tcpdump). When I set a Connection: close header everything is working...

[violetagg]

Can you provide some example?

[joshiste]

yeah I try to throw sth together up this weekend

I'm closing this one, if you can provide reproducible example you can reopen the issue.
