Premature end of script headers

[nleroy]

Hi

I have a puphpet box with apache2 and mod_proxy_fcgi. When running my web application, I get this error in the logs: "Premature end of script headers"
Any idea what the problem could be? Is it a memory problem? What conf or parameter to change/add?

Thanks for your input!

Weird, I was looking into timeouts or memory. But it appears to be a browser problem. In Firefox and safari it works. In chrome I get the a white page in the browser and in the logs the "Premature end of script headers" error...

I'll have to investigate the code of the application.

Found the problem:
It is due to chrome logger. It adds extra info to the http headers. That's why the application crashed with chrome and not with the other browsers. Any idea what setting I have to change to increase memory or http header?

There some more info in these issues:
ccampbell/chromephp#10
symfony/symfony#8413

For NGINX it is fixed with these two parameters in nginx.conf:
fastcgi_buffers 16 16k;
fastcgi_buffer_size 32k;

But how to fix this with apache2?

I'm not exactly sure. Someone more versed in Apache would need to help out here.

Apache has been completely refactored via 8525b77

Note: mod_php support has been completely dropped, but your configs are now infinitely more customizable.
