To add a little more information to this issue, the issue we are seeing is when the request to:
set timeout 500
set result [ns_http run -method GET -headers $request_headers -expire $timeout $url]
returns with a result that is trapped in the NONE case and contains result and error_info values of
: status:
: result: ssl connect failed: error:00000000:lib(0):func(0):reason(0)
: error_info: ssl connect failed: error:00000000:lib(0):func(0):reason(0)
: while executing
: "ns_http run -method GET -headers $request_headers -expire $timeout $url"
: ("::try" body line 4)
When this happens, the call to ns_http does not expire after the 500ms but can take anywhere from 20 seconds to 2 minutes to return.
The biggest questions we have are:
Why does ns_http not expire in these cases? And, is there a way to get it to so that a problem with the target site will not affect our site?
Thanks for any ideas you may have with this,
