Ooops, typo in the list name :-) --- To: romain@zzict.com Cc: nuxeo-localizer@nongnu.org, zope-dev@zope.org Subject: Re: [Zope-dev] Accept-Charset hearders causing 500 internal server error.[correct but not lenient] Date: 30 Jan 2003 16:38:20 +0100 That's actually a bug in Localizer. In Accept.py, the Root.parse method is not flexible enough... I haven't time to fix it right away so someone else feel free to do it... Florent In article <3E37D0B7.6040801@zzict.nl> you write:

Hi,

We have problems with the Accept-Charset headers that are sent to the zope server by some mobile phones: fi: 'Accept-Charset':'ISO-8859-1, US-ASCII, UTF-8; Q=0.8'

These cause a 500 internal server error. (Error Value: invalid literal for float(): =0.8 )

I checked with the HTTP1.1 RFC26160 section 14.2 and the header seems valid, but in fact isn't: there is a space between the semi-colon and the Q char (which shouldn't be there acoording to the spec).

So, in principle, this is not a zope server bug, but an inflexibility.

I think the server should be a bit more lenient. a simple .strip() in the right place should do.

Could you guys fix this?

TIA,

Sloot.

BTW, for completeness, I included a quick test program is included below (causes a 500 on my zope 2.6.0) :

#--------------------- program illustrating the behavior ----------- import httplib, urllib

def sendHTTP(): """

""" headers = {'Accept': 'application/vnd.wap.wmlc, application/vnd.wap.wmlscriptc, application/vnd.wap.wbxml, image/vnd.wap.wbmp, image/gif, application/*, text/html, application/xhtml+xml, application/vnd.wap.wml+xml, text/css', 'Accept-Charset':'ISO-8859-1, US-ASCII, UTF-8; Q=0.8'}#, ISO-10646-UCS-2; Q=0.6' conn = httplib.HTTPConnection("127.0.0.1:8080") conn.request("GET", "/mobile/wap/games/",headers=headers) response = conn.getresponse() print response.status, response.reason data = response.read() print data

conn.close()

sendHTTP()
