[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBRULES-1506) RuleAgent will not read binary packages from Apache HTTP Server

Michael Neale commented on JBRULES-1506:
----------------------------------------

OK - didn't anticipate this use, but it seems valid. I have amended the http client to check the http connection last modified (as per HTTP) as well as the BRMS specific one (its notoriously hard to test with different web servers) but that should do the trick. 
Applied to both trunk and 4.0.x

> Hi,
> We were hoping to deploy our rules packages in SVN fronted by Apache 2.0.52. The rule agent fails when trying to load the URI that resolves into the repository..
> Exception is as follows:
> 2008-03-14 11:46:08,270 ERROR [STDERR] RuleAgent(MyConfig) INFO (Fri Mar 14 11:46:08 PDT 2008): Configuring package provider : URLScanner monitoring URLs:  http://vconfig.dev.alea.ca/alea/eco/rules/eco.pkg with local cache dir of /tmp
> 2008-03-14 11:46:08,583 ERROR [STDERR] RuleAgent(MyConfig) WARNING (Fri Mar 14 11:46:08 PDT 2008): Was an error contacting http://vconfig.dev.alea.ca/alea/eco/rules/eco.pkg. Reponse header: {null=[HTTP/1.1 200 OK], ETag=["360//alea/eco/rules/eco.pkg"], Date=[Fri, 14 Mar 2008 18:46:08 GMT], Last-Modified=[Fri, 14 Mar 2008 17:06:15 GMT], Keep-Alive=[timeout=15, max=100], Accept-Ranges=[bytes], Connection=[Keep-Alive], Content-Type=[application/octet-stream], Server=[Apache]}
> 2008-03-14 11:46:08,583 ERROR [STDERR] RuleAgent(MyConfig) WARNING (Fri Mar 14 11:46:08 PDT 2008): Falling back to local cache.
> I believe the problem resides in "org.droos.agent.HttpClientImpl". It is looking for a http header field "lastModified", instead of the HTTP standard header field  "last-modified". Thus it never updates the lastUpdated field in "LastUpdatedPing", which means the server will never load the file.
> It seems to me to be an easy fix, to check for both headers.. ?
> Thanks,
> David.
