Description
On linux, libwww doesn't work.
I tried with the tgz 5.4, the latest cvs, the ubuntu version.
In all 3 versions, we receive no answer from the web so libwww time out.
The latest trace before timeout is:
Timer....... Found timer 2F2D9788 with callback 01183260, context 2F496A00, and relative timeout 60000
We never receive this line (only on windows):
Host Event.. WRITE passed to `http://...'
To have the log, you add in the init of libwww.cpp:
WWW_TraceFlag = SHOW_ALL_TRACE;
You need libwww to be compiled with debug.
2 options to make webig working on linux:- Find the bug in libwww
- Get the webpage with curl and parsing the html using libxml2 (the both lib are already used in ryzom)

Red hat flag a 5.4.1 with many CVE corrected

You have no answer because you don't send any thing to remote server.
from a TCP point of view, TCP 3-Way Handshake (SYN,SYN-ACK,ACK) is ok, socket is opened.
- Find the bug in libwww
We are not calling libwww event pump function ?
libwww under windows use the windows system callback to do so, but under linux ... ? I think we must call HTEventList_loop in group_html
- Get the webpage with curl and parsing the html using libxml2 (the both lib are already used in ryzom)
This is the long term solution, removing this crappy library :)

Thank you Naush for your idea. Indeed the problem came from the non parsing of the event.
HTEventList_loop is an infinite loop (not return) so we had to add some code to make it work but now it done!
