Wireshark for HTTP packets

0

Hi guys,

In wireshark I am facing another issues.

I am sending HTTP requests for same url, so I am getting HTTP responses. But In Some HTTP responses Info field as "HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden (text/html)" and Some Http responses Info field as "Continuation or non-HTTP traffic". But data is seeing as TCP segments. Can u guys tell me the reason and solution about this issue.

Regards, Swathi.

What Wireshark is telling you is most likely true, so your requests to the same URL may look the same but differ in some bits, causing the server to treat them in a different way. In that case, the solution would be to fix the contents of the http requests. Or the server may treat the requests in a different way due to its own dynamic condition (overload, access to user authentication database broken, ...) - in that case, the solution would be to fix something at server side.

If you want to get more detailed information, please publish the capture somewhere for public access (not requesting any login) and provide a link to it here.
