For now I have the following lines in a project configuration on pylons: [server:main] ... ssl_pem = /path-to-pem/file-name.pem so paster serves only HTTPS requests but not HTTP. Any HTTP request causes the following exception in paster debug console: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/eigenein/Projects/Python/Pylons/li...
Say I make an HTTP request to: foosite.com but the port I actually send the request to is 6103 but I DON'T put that port in the "Host" header for example: GET /barpage HTTP/1.1 Host: foosite.com Method: GET Should the server then recognize that I'm trying to talk to it on port 6103? Or since it was omitted in the request am I gambling...

I've written an update checker routine for our apps which contacts our server via regular HTTP and naturally I had to provide configuration options for connections through proxy servers. Currently I'm only providing options for proxy name (or address) and port number plus an "auto-detect" option which simply reads those two values from I...

The servers run either Apache2 or IIS7. The hosting providers vary There are usually multiple sites on each server The setups are inconsistent, the...

So when someone requests: DELETE /comments/5 where the 5th comment has children, I do not allow the comment to be deleted. What is the appropriate HTTP status code? I use a 405 elsewhere on the site, but...
If I run an audit on my sites with Google Chrome, I get this message in the Leverage browser caching section: The following resources are missing a cache expiration. Resources that do not specify an expiration may not be cached by browsers: A list of all the pictures follows. I get a similar notice in Leverage proxy caching: ...
I realize that HTTPS is supposed to be more secure because it encrypts communication between you and the server so that your passwords and credit card numbers don't get sent in plain-text. However, when using LiveHTTPHeaders, I can still see my password in plain-text in the POST even when using an https connection. Why is this the case...
Are there any simple HTTP APIs out there which will let me get the stock price for a symbol (such as GOOG) at a specific date and time? Something like... http://somewebsite.com/? symbol=GOOG& year=2010& month=7& day=30& hour=4& minute=00 Giving a response of $484.85 I'm hoping to have an end result of a haske...

I've tried using the JMF libraries with the "MediaPlayer" bean, but it doesn't seem to be doing anything, or it plays a split-second of the audio track. I do have the Mpeg3 codecs installed - so that's not the issue. I was wondering if anyone has a better method of accomplishing this? Current code for using the MediaPlayer: mediaPlayer...
Since the POST request in a POST/Redirect/GET (PRG) pattern returns a redirect (303 See Other) status code on success, is it at all possible to inform the client of the specific flavour of success they are to enjoy (eg. OK, Created, Accepted, etc.) as well as any appropriate headers (eg. Location for a 201 Created, which might conflict w...

I use the following code to send a .zip file to a customer, it works great for files around 60-80 Mb but when I try with larger files (300 Mb) customers report that the browser (both IE and FFX) just stops download progress after a few minutes (around (80Mb)) and nothing more happens. I wonder if there could be a setup issue with IIS th...
