When I try to fetch this site:
<fetch 'http://www.acurazine.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=23'>

The first response is the error:
Keep-Alive received without Content-Length in response from www.acurazine.com:80 for http://www.acurazine.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=23

Then the script hangs there for 2-3 munutes, and reports another error:
Timeout reading from www.acurazine.com:80 in the function htbuf_readnblk

Strangely, after that the returned $ret seems to contain the valid html content, and my script can continue processing it.

So the only drawback is that the whole process takes a very long time (considering there might be many fetches).

How can I prevent those errors?

I tried : <vxcp timeout -1> , as well as <urlcp timeout nnn>

Thanks a lot.

Some servers erroneously indicate a keep-alive connection under some circumstances. In that case the client needs to wait for further data until the timeout.
Texis versions after 2008-05-06 workaround that problem.

Would this error happen on Linux version of Texis also? If so, can we get the latest version for both Windows and Linux?

Yes, it would affect all platforms.
