Some explanations are here: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2003-06/0146.html - -2. If a HTTP server responds to a HEAD request and includes a body (thus - violating the RFC2616), curl won't wait to read the response but just stop - reading and return back. If a second request (let's assume a GET) is then - immediately made to the same server again, the connection will be re-used - fine of course, and the second request will be sent off but when the - response is to get read, the previous response-body is what curl will read - and havoc is what happens. - More details on this is found in this libcurl mailing list thread: - http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2002-08/0000.html |
