Building a webserver, client doesn't acknowledge HTTP 200 OK frame.
- by Evert
Hi there,
I'm building my own webserver based on a tutorial.
I have found a simple way to initiate a TCP connection and send one segment of http data (the webserver will run on a microcontroller, so it will be very small)
Anyway, the following is the sequence I need to go through:
receive SYN
send SYN,ACK
receive ACK (the connection is now established)
receive ACK with HTTP GET command
send ACK
send FIN,ACK with HTTP data (e.g 200 OK)
receive FIN,ACK <- I don't recieve this packet!
send ACK
Everything works fine until I send my acknowledgement and HTTP 200 OK message.
The client won't send an acknowledgement to those two packages and thus
no webpage is being displayed.
I've added a pcap file of the sequence how I recorded it with wireshark.
Pcap file: http://cl.ly/5f5 (now it's the right data)
All sequence and acknowledgement numbers are correct, checksum are ok. Flags are also right.
I have no idea what is going wrong.
