| Subject: | apache.t fails in a proxied environment, requiring force install |
The apache.t test fails in a situation where www.apache.org is reachable, but the environment
is behind a proxy which refuses TRACE requests. At my company, it was giving the following
error:
t/apache.t .. 1/6 # Test 3 got: "TRACE /libwww-perl HTTP/1.0\nHost:

You'll note that in the GOT component there is a header of "Via: 1.1
lvproxy02.lightningsource.com:3128 (squid/2.6.STABLE21)" which allowed us to see that the
problem seemed to be the proxy. I have turned test 3 into a "skip" test which sees if the Via
header was returned. Please see the attached patch.
However, although the test passes, we still see that Net::HTTP::Methods generates an error
message:
Server closed connection without sending any data back at
/Users/earino/.cpanm/work/1301678802.18970/Net-HTTP-
6.00/blib/lib/Net/HTTP/Methods.pm line 345.
This does not stop the module from being installed, however it may be something you wish to
clean up.
