Another suggestion I'd have would be to sniff the traffic between client and
server using Ethereal. You should be able to see when the connection gets
closed, and what's happening up to that point. That information could be
helpful in resolving your problem.
The error message you described was exactly what I had seen. When doing an
update from the server, the client would send a REPORT request containing a
large XML document (in one case, larger than the 1000000 byte default used
by Apache). When Apache received more data than its limit would allow, it
closed the connection without even sending back an HTTP response, and the
client complained that it could not read the status line. While sniffing a
few sessions between client and server this morning, it seems that a REPORT
request normally sends only a few hundred bytes. I'm not sure how to
reproduce the case where it sends a large amount of data to the server.
Hope that helps, or at least jogs someone else's memory who's on this list.
:-)
