its just for reference for the curl devs

Yes, you are right. Hopefully they follow this thread.

From looking at the patch - it seems like the logic in: https://github.com/bagder/curl/commit/cacdc27f52ba7b0bf08aa57886bfbd18bc82ebfb , especially: https://github.com/bagder/curl/commit/cacdc27f52ba7b0bf08aa57886bfbd18bc82ebfb#diff-fa07c5e05c881b8074d0ca1e171feb02R1572

Can you try to change that like:

Code:
- Curl_expire_latest(data->easy_conn->recv_pipe->head->ptr, 1); + Curl_expire(data->easy_conn->recv_pipe->head->ptr, 1);

I think a curl timesout before actually getting anything.

I tried that but no, it didn't help. :/

Oki, then let's find out what upstream has to tell. They know their code way better. Thanks for bisecting.

RE: XBMC and curl v7.38.0 do not work together - cannot scrape - geearf - 2014-09-22

Sure, that was my first time doing that, it was interesting for me as well!
Oh and by the way, unlike what you wrote in the previous page, I didn't need to rebuild xbmc, building curl and restarting xbmc was enough.

RE: XBMC and curl v7.38.0 do not work together - cannot scrape - fritsch - 2014-09-22

@geearf: Please enable detailled curl logging like wsnipex said. This log will get much more useful. It's under debug logging, component logging.

RE: XBMC and curl v7.38.0 do not work together - cannot scrape - geearf - 2014-09-22

Is there a way to have debug logging without it affecting the ui?

RE: XBMC and curl v7.38.0 do not work together - cannot scrape - fritsch - 2014-09-23

Yes - see: http://wiki.xbmc.org/?title=advancedsettings.xml

RE: XBMC and curl v7.38.0 do not work together - cannot scrape - geearf - 2014-09-23

Got it!
But since I have to "deactive" debugging in the UI, how do I specify the component logging?
Or does '1' gets all of components anyway?

RE: XBMC and curl v7.38.0 do not work together - cannot scrape - fritsch - 2014-09-23

You only need to gather logfiles exactly once - so I would just enable gui logging, restart xbmc - scrape something and provide the logfile afterwards. Then you can disable logging again.

it's a bug.
you can't active component logging with advancedsettings enabled.

perhaps it works if you first enable component logging and then activate advancedsettings

Well I understand that, it was more of a general question than a how-to-debug-right-now.

That's unfortunate.

Thanks!

Arch Users: http://sourceforge.net/p/curl/bugs/1426/ <- please test and give Daniel a big thank you and the data he wants.

Thanks much in advance from my side.

Thank you to all the folks in there (especially you, fritsch) who helped Daniel trouble shoot and fix this. The patch works great.

RE: XBMC and curl v7.38.0 do not work together - cannot scrape - fritsch - 2014-09-23

Daniel did the work completely. I only linked him our commonoptions. Please also thank especially him in the libcurl bugtracker. He invested a whole lot of time to debug that issue. He even wrote custom code to reproduce it. This is outstanding!
