When trying to make more than one HTTPS request to the same host via `url-retrieve-synchronously' behind my work proxy, only the first request succeeds. Depending on the host, subsequent requests result in 400/404/302 and perhaps a couple other response codes. There's some minimal code below that can be run with emacs -Q, but I don't know how to replicate the proxy. It seems that commit 84613dae5c3 is at least partially responsible for this. It's a small change to `url-https-proxy-after-change-function' that binds `url-http-proxy' around the call to `url-http-create-request'. Without that binding, I see no errors. I tested this both in 26.2.90 which does not include that commit, and the revision in this report by simply redefining the function to the older version. This happens both when `url-proxy-services' is set manually and when it is set from environment variables. I'm not sure if this is a problem with Emacs, the proxy I'm behind, or if there is some configuration I should be aware of that already addresses this. Please let me know if there's any other useful information I can provide. Sample code and the corresponding url-http buffer headers follow. The specific URLs don't seem to matter as long they are HTTPS. The optional arguments also don't seem to make a difference. - David Code: (url-retrieve-synchronously "https://xkcd.com/1/") (url-retrieve-synchronously "https://xkcd.com/2/") First request (success): HTTP/1.1 200 OK Server: nginx Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Last-Modified: Thu, 15 Aug 2019 11:24:39 GMT Expires: Thu, 15 Aug 2019 21:22:11 GMT Cache-Control: max-age=300 Content-Length: 3012 Accept-Ranges: bytes Date: Fri, 16 Aug 2019 01:32:01 GMT Via: 1.1 varnish Age: 142 Connection: keep-alive X-Served-By: cache-mdw17348-MDW X-Cache: HIT X-Cache-Hits: 1 X-Timer: S1565919121.298692,VS0,VE0 Vary: Accept-Encoding Second request (failuer): HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request Server: nginx Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Content-Length: 166 Accept-Ranges: bytes Date: Fri, 16 Aug 2019 01:32:01 GMT Via: 1.1 varnish Connection: keep-alive X-Served-By: cache-mdw17348-MDW X-Cache: MISS X-Cache-Hits: 0 X-Timer: S1565919121.349321,VS0,VE26 In GNU Emacs 27.0.50 (build 1, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) of 2019-08-07 built on slartibartfast Repository revision: d5622eb6fff94714c5d5a64c98c5e02bc1be478c Repository branch: master Windowing system distributor 'Fedora Project', version 11.0.12005000 System Description: Fedora 30 (Workstation Edition) Recent messages: Making completion list...
