Hi,

I've been running the calibre content server using Apache's Reverse Proxy (mod_proxy), and I've been getting a lot of problems, mainly with getting "Bad Gateway" the first time I browse to the server, or not having certain images served properly and today I finally realized why!

It seems that CherryPy doesn't support HTTP/1.1 Keep-Alives properly so many of my issues were fixed by forcing Apache to use HTTP/1.0 with no keep-alives:

This is from httpd.conf:

Code:

<Location /books>
	Order Deny, Allow
	Deny from all
	Allow from all
	
	ProxyPass http://localhost:8083/books
	ProxyPassReverse http://localhost:8083/books
	SetEnv force-proxy-request-1.0 1
	SetEnv proxy-nokeepalive 1
</Location>

Hope this helps to those who are having similar problems.
