[squid-users] HTTP protocol violation error using .NET 2.0 web services through Squid-2.5 proxy

Hello,

A client of ours using the Squid proxy server (version
2.5.STABLE6-3.4E.12.1) on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 is experiencing a
problem when running our .NET 2.0 client application, which communicates
with a .NET 2.0 web service on our server.

When our client application sends an HTTP 1.1 request through the Squid
proxy to our server, it receives the error:

"The server committed a protocol violation. Section=ResponseStatusLine"

Other clients not using Squid are not experiencing this problem.

Researching this, we've found a few posts that report similar problems
using .NET 2.0 web services and/or the HTTP 1.1 protocol through Squid,
e.g.

We've also tried the suggestion in
http://forums.asp.net/thread/1284850.aspx to set the
useUnsafeHeaderParsing property in the client .NET application's config
file to "true", but our client reports this hasn't solved the problem.

Any suggestions on how we can resolve this issue would be much
appreciated.
