| Summary | 0006444: merchant backend returns 100 continue before 404 on POST /private/orders | ||||
| Description | Instead of failing immediately, the backend first 404s and then fails shortly thereafter with a 404. Somehow we don't do the right thing (TM) and check early on for the 404 failure case. Also odd: we still seem to fail before the actual upload succeeds, at least with my current WooCommerce test. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Post to backend where no instance is configured. Transcript from wireshark: POST //private/orders HTTP/1.1 Host: backend.test.taler.net Accept: */* Authorization: ApiKey sandbox Content-Type: application/json Expect: 100-continue HTTP/1.1 100 Continue HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found Server: nginx Date: Sat, 25 Jul 2020 10:46:15 GMT Content-Type: application/json Content-Length: 57 Connection: keep-alive Vary: Accept-Encoding Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * { "code": 2000, "hint": "merchant instance unknown" } | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||
| Turns out this is the nginx reverse proxy's 100 continue. It just doesn't wait for the backend to react :-(. | |
| And they wontfix'ed the bug 7 years ago: https://trac.nginx.org/nginx/ticket/493 | |
