The patch published on dev.apache.org:
http://dev.apache.org/dist/patches/apply_to_1.3-current/proxy_http1.1.patch does not send HTTP/1.1 requests it sends HTTP/1.0 requests including a ``Connection: close'' header and removing any existing Keep-Alive: headers. Do you use this patch or something different?

The unpatched mod_proxy seems to remove Connection: headers, but leaves Keep-Alive: headers alone.

A quick glance at the code seems to indicate that mod_proxy does not shutdown(2) the sending side of the socket to the content provider after having sent the request, but should call ap_bclose() after the response-body has been passed through to the client.

Can you show us/me a tcpdump of the connection between the proxy and Weblogic of a short request and reply. Using something like ``tcpdump -s 65535 -x host Weblogic and port 80''?
