[Rabbit-dev] jpeg conversions not working

[Luis Soltero]

Hello All,

Here is the situation..

I have two identically configured proxy servers. one running on a opensuse machine and one on a centos 5 machine.  the
proxy binaries and the config files are identical.

yet.. on one jpgs get converted and on the other they do not...  other image formats convert just fine. Its an issue
only with jpgs.

here is a sample URL that gets converted on a SUSE machine.
96.38.22.218 - test 30/Aug/2011:21:27:16 GMT "GET
http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2011/images/08/30/t1larg.chinook.memorial.jpg HTTP/1.1" 200 7953 [0, 86]
imageratio:7953/77910=0.102

here is the same URL on the centos machine
96.38.22.218 - test 30/Aug/2011:22:27:22 GMT "GET
http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2011/images/08/30/t1larg.chinook.memorial.jpg HTTP/1.1" 200 77910 [0, 3]


i have flushed both the proxy and the browser caches before doing the test. I have repeated the test over and over and
get the same result.

here is proof that the two conf files are the same

spider:/usr/local/rabbit4.11-beta-3119/conf # sum rabbit.conf
21308    21

[root at fly /usr/local/RabbIT4-3119/conf]# sum rabbit.conf
21308    21


The suse machine is running the following version of Java

spider:/usr/local/rabbit4.11-beta-3119/conf # rpm -qa | grep java
java-1_6_0-sun-devel-1.6.0.u23-0.2.1.i586
java-1_6_0-sun-1.6.0.u23-0.2.1.i586
java-1_6_0-sun-jdbc-1.6.0.u23-0.2.1.i586

the cent os machine is running
[root at fly /usr/local/RabbIT4-3119/conf]# rpm -qa | grep java
java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0-1.16.b17.el5
java-1.6.0-openjdk-devel-1.6.0.0-1.16.b17.el5

When fetching the above url manually and then running it through convert or gm using the options in the config file the
image converts just fine.  So... i know its not an issue with the converter.

Anyone have any ideas why jpg conversion are failing? Anyone see this before?
