I started seeing weird behavior from LWP (5.835) when accessing the Bing
API. In particular, I'm doing something like this:
$response = $ua->request(GET $url);
The problem is $response->content intermittently (~50% of the time)
returns only a partial JSON response.
When that happens, the header reads like this:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Connection: close
Date: Sun, 24 Oct 2010 15:24:50 GMT
Content-Length: 38511
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
Client-Aborted: die
Client-Date: Sun, 24 Oct 2010 15:24:50 GMT
Client-Peer: 72.246.30.144:80
Client-Response-Num: 1
X-Died: read failed: Connection reset by peer at /usr/local/lib/perl5/
+site_perl/5.8.9/LWP/Protocol/http.pm line 388.
I see the error in the X-Died header as the docs suggest. However, if I
use curl/wget/lynx/whatever on the same machine I get the full response
every time.
