No. Hardly any HTTP 1.1 features are supported.

Hi all,

I'd like to know more about the limitations.

Somewhere, is there a list of the actual subset of HTTP 1.1 features
supported. There's not much related info at the python.org site. There
appears to be just a limited note on 1.1 in
http://www.python.org/doc/2.4/lib/mo...TTPServer.html with regards to
using the protocol_versio n variable/setting. No clue to extent of support.

Thanks,

Hello all, I am having difficulty getting the HTTP/1.1 support (i.e. pipelining and persistent connections) for the BaseHTTPServer library to work. When I change the line for the protocol in BaseHTTPServer from "HTTP/1.0" to "HTTP/1.1", the SimpleHTTPServer program can still serve directory listings and even graphics files, but it hangs when I try to browse to an HTML file. I have a directory of web pages that I use to test servers (such as...

Hello. I am using the basehttpserver to implement the HTTP protocol to serve a fairly large lexicon that I have loaded as a dictionary in python. Rather than writing a whole server, I would like to reuse the BaseHTTPserver classes. I am interested in finding a way to serve the dict without loading the whole dict into memory everytime an HTTP request is made. The dict lives in local memory when it is loaded and takes a long time to load.

Hi list, My ultimate goal is to have a small HTTP proxy which is able to show a message specific to clients name/ip/status then handle the original request normally either by redirecting the client, or acting as a proxy. I started with a modified version of TinyHTTPProxy postet by Suzuki Hisao somewhere in 2003 to this list and tried to extend it to my needs. It works quite well if I configure my client to use it, but using iptables...

I am making custom web server using HTTPServer and want to be able to access it simultaneously from different computers. To achieve multithreading, I have been experimenting with ThreadingMixIn from SocketServer, but it doesn't seem to work, when I freeze code in one instance it seems to be frozen in second one too (I experimented with time.sleep and while 1 loop). I am using python 2.4 on Windows XP. Does anyone have any suggestions? Do I...

Hello, After experimenting for a while, I am still not able to find where the POST data is in the BaseHTTPRequestHandler class. I am trying to write a very simple HTTP server for a project of mine and I need to get the POST data. Certainly I am missing something, as it is a comon task. Thanks in advance, Vlad

I have a fairly large web app written in Python as a CGI fairly elaborate CGI. All of the requests go through a single CGI script which does authentication and session management and then dispatches to one of a number of handlers that generate the various pages.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
