Is there currently a filesystem agnostic way to have a file in two locations on a network, change one copy, and have just the changed bits (or more likely blocks) synced to the other copy? It would be awesome to have media files in the cloud, allow another service to read them and me to edit them with their web app, and then only have t...
I have an FCGI application that have to stream audio via HTTP. The audio is composed of 1 to 3 files mixed together. Everything is in plain C. I'd like to know what will be a good way or library to read the audio files by 1 second chunks, mix them and encode them as an HTTP friendly format. I need to read the files by chunks because I ...
I keep getting the two following errors from my server, I assumed they were just bots looking for potential targets, but does anyone know specifically why I'm getting these? I'm using the SslRequirement plugin to make sure all hits to the login/signup page are redirected to SSL, so all of these weird https requests to root should just b...

We have a collection of Unix scripts (and/or Python modules) that each perform a long running task. I would like to provide a web interface for them that does the following: Asks for relevant data to pass into scripts. Allows for starting/stopping/killing them.

I'm debugging a program I wrote and noticed something strange. I set up an HTTP server on port 12345 that servers a simple OGG video file, and attempted to access it from Firefox. Upon sniffing the network requests, I found these two requests were made: GET /video.ogv HTTP/1.1 Host: 127.0.0.1:12345 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U...
Hi, i would like to pass multiple parameters in my callback function and don't know who to do this... This would be the C# code: Response.Clear(); Response.ContentType = "text/plain"; Response.Write("content of param1"); Response.Write("content of param2"); Response.End(); and the JS code: ...
I am trying to make an Http POST to an Apache web server. I am finding that setting ContentLength seems to be required for the request to work. I would rather create an XmlWriter directly from GetRequestStream() and set SendChunked to true, but the request hangs indefinitely when doing so. Here is how my request is created: priva...
We have some standalone devices that will send XML messages to arbitrary processing software (may be developed by us, may be 3rd party) over HTTP. The messages are relatively simple, and will conform to an existing schema. No specific reply is necessary. I suddenly find myself lost in a world of web service technology jargon. I'd lik...
I want to reload an image on a page if it has been updated on the server. In other questions it has been suggested to do something like newImage.src = "http://localhost/image.jpg?" + new Date().getTime(); to force the image to be re-loaded, but that means that it will get downloaded again even if it really hasn't changed. Is there a...
I would like to duplicate the functionality of some web filtering software, however I don't want the user to have to configure their browser. Some other products on the market do this without any apparent configuration in the browser settings. The user would be installing this for themselves, so air-tight filter security is not a prior...
Is there a webserver or HTTP server module in the Perl standard library or in CPAN or elsewhere? I guess I'm looking for the equivalent of Python 3's http.server module. Thanks! ...
Hi Is it possible to modify request headers sent by Internet Explorer. There are addins to do this for Mozilla Firefox. Is there a similar thing for IE. Thanks in advance!! ...
I want something like BaseHTTPRequestHandler, except that I don't want it to bind to any sockets; I want to handle the raw HTTP data to and from it myself. Is there a good way that I can do this in Python? To Clarify, I want a class that receives raw TCP data from Python (NOT a socket), processes it and returns TCP data as a response (...

ETags allow browsers to perform conditional GETs. Only if the resource in question has been altered will the resource have to be re-downloaded. However, the browser still has to wait for the server to respond to its request. An alternative to ETags is to introduce a token into the URL pointing to the resource: http://example.com/css/st...
How can I grab an HTML response when there are no response headers? I've got this: require 'hpricot' require 'open-uri' doc = Hpricot(open('http://192.168.100.1/phy.htm')) The server in this case is a cable modem that is not returning HTTP Response headers. The above code is failing with: C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/net/http.rb:2022:i...
I have a Java program that accepts connections, receives HTTP requests and sends HTTP replies and some data stored in file (this is a part of caching proxy). Removing everything irrelevant, my code looks like this: FileInputStream fileInputStream = new FileInputStream(file); OutputStream outputStream = socket.getOutputStream(); byte[] b...
