FastCGI - response headers question

Reply Contact

It seems that FastCGI.pm or the Microsoft implementation has some sort of filter on the headers returned by the application, causing a

FastCGI Error
The FastCGI Handler was unable to process the request.

Error Details:

* Error Number: 13 (0x8007000d).
* Error Description: The data is invalid.

HTTP Error 500 - Server Error.
Internet Information Services (IIS)

if it doesn't like what it sees. Are these rules documented somewhere?

Does FastCGI expect a content type of text/html?

In my application I'm finding that I get this error when trying to return an application/pdf for download.

Thanks for any help
Horace

The FastCGI handler does need to parse the response headers.

We did introduce some bugs in this code with the GoLive release that would result in the error that you describe. We believe that we fixed it with the latest release at http://www.iis.net/default.aspx?tabid=1000057.

If you are seeing the "data is invalid" error, and you are using the latest version of fcgiext.dll (dated 10/25/2007), please contact me at wadeh@microsoft.com. I would like to make sure that this problem is fixed. If you have a way to reproduce it, I would like very much to see it.

Thanks,

-Wade
