我正在开发一个小型的C#/ WPF应用程序,该应用程序使用手工HttpWebRequest调用和JSON序列化与Ruby on Rails中实现的Web服务进行交互.没有缓存,一切都按预期工作,我也有HTTP身份验证和压缩工作.
一旦我启用了缓存,通过设置request.CachePolicy = new HttpRequestCachePolicy(HttpRequestCacheLevel.CacheIfAvailable);,就会出现问题 - 在生产环境中.当连接到一个简单的WEBrick实例时,工作正常,我HTTP/1.1 304 Not Modified按预期得到并HttpWebRequest提供缓存的内容.
当我对生产服务器尝试相同的操作,运行nginx/0.8.53 + Phusion Passenger 3.0.0时,应用程序会中断.第一个请求(未缓存)正确提供,但是在第二个请求导致304响应时,我得到一个WebException声明" 请求被中止:请求被取消. "我一调用request.GetResponse().
我通过提琴手进行连接,但这并没有帮助很多; WEBrick和nginx都返回一个空实体,尽管响应标头不同.拦截请求并更改nginx的响应头以匹配WEBrick的响应头并没有改变任何东西,导致我认为它可能是一个保持活跃的问题; 但是设置request.KeepAlive = false;没有任何改变 - 它在连接到WEBrick时不会破坏东西,并且在连接到nginx时它不会修复东西.
对于它的价值,将WebException.InnerException是一个NullReferenceException具有如下StackTrace:
at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.CheckCacheUpdateOnResponse()
at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.CheckResubmitForCache(Exception& e)
at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.DoSubmitRequestProcessing(Exception& exception)

我尝试做一个快速而又脏的手动ETag缓存,但事实证明这是不行的:我WebException在调用时得到一个request.GetResponce(),告诉我"远程服务器返回错误:(304)Not Modified." - 是的,.NET,我有点知道,而且我想(尝试)自己处理它,grr.
更接近问题的根源.showstopper似乎是初始请求的响应头的差异.WEBrick包含一个Date: Wed, 01 Dec 2010 21:30:01 GMT标头,该标头在nginx回复中不存在.还有其他差异,但是用fiddler拦截初始nginx回复并添加Date标题,后续的HttpWebRequests能够处理(未修改的)nginx 304回复.
试图寻找一种解决方法,以及让nginx添加Date标头.
似乎服务器端问题是Phusion Passenger,他们有一个关于缺少标题的公开问题Date.我仍然说这种HttpWebRequest行为是......不是最理想的.
为该错误添加了Microsoft Connect票证.
所以,事实证明是 Phusion Passenger(或 nginx,取决于你如何看待它 - 还有 Thin)没有添加DateHTTP 响应标头,再加上我在 .NET HttpWebRequest 中看到的错误(在我的情况没有If-Modified-Since,因此日期不应该是必要的)导致问题。
这种特殊情况的解决方法是编辑我们的 Rails ApplicationController:
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
# ...other stuff here
before_filter :add_date_header
# bugfix for .NET HttpWebRequst 304-handling bug and various
# webservers' lazyness in not adding the Date: response header.
def add_date_header
response.headers['Date'] = Time.now.to_s
end

事实证明,它比“仅”设置要复杂一些HttpRequestCachePolicy- 为了重现,我还需要手动构建 HTTP 基本身份验证。所以涉及到的组件如下:
我能想到的最小的复制品:
namespace Repro
{
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Net;
using System.Net.Cache;
using System.Text;
class ReproProg
{
const string requestUrl = "http://drivelog.miracle.local:3030/users/current.json";
// Manual construction of HTTP basic auth so we don't get an unnecessary server
// roundtrip telling us to auth, which is what we get if we simply use
// HttpWebRequest.Credentials.
private static void SetAuthorization(HttpWebRequest request, string _username, string _password)
{
string userAndPass = string.Format("{0}:{1}", _username, _password);
byte[] authBytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(userAndPass.ToCharArray());
request.Headers["Authorization"] = "Basic " + Convert.ToBase64String(authBytes);
}
static public void DoRequest()
{
var request = (HttpWebRequest) WebRequest.Create(requestUrl);
request.Method = "GET";
request.CachePolicy = new HttpRequestCachePolicy(HttpRequestCacheLevel.CacheIfAvailable);
SetAuthorization(request, "user@domain.com", "12345678");
using(var response = request.GetResponse())
using(var stream = response.GetResponseStream())
using(var reader = new StreamReader(stream))
{
string reply = reader.ReadToEnd();
Console.WriteLine("########## Server reply: {0}", reply);
}
}
static public void Main(string[] args)
{
DoRequest(); // works
DoRequest(); // explodes
}
}
}
