Close connection instead of setting 'keep-alive'
10,036
It works fine for me. I test it localhost the same version.
$ curl -D - 127.0.0.1:3000
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
X-Powered-By: Express
Connection: close
Proof: close
Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
Content-Length: 5
ETag: "907060870"

I see that you may use nginx
to proxy. Like below:
client--nginx proxy--real server
I guess that you should disable keep-alive
in nginx config file.

I'm trying to disable the
keep-alive
setting in a very simpleexpress
app. I tried the answer from someone doing the same in an older version:var express = require('express'); var app = express(); app.get('/', function(req, res) { res.set('Connection', 'close'); // attempting to override default (keep-alive) res.set('Proof', 'close'); // just to show that this should modify the header value res.send('hello'); }); var server = app.listen(3000, function() { console.log('Listening on port %d', server.address().port); });
However,
Connection
is still set tokeep-alive
:$ curl -D - http://my-test-site.com HTTP/1.1 200 OK Server: nginx/1.4.7 Date: Sun, 11 May 2014 08:07:51 GMT Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 Content-Length: 5 Connection: keep-alive X-Powered-By: Express Proof: close ETag: "907060870" hello%
How can I change
keep-alive
toclose
?Versions
node 0.10.8
