[squid-users] Squid not accounting server response

[Satish Thareja]

Hi Amos,

The client is being served the content as per the range in the request headers.
The object is cacheable and there are no other caches involved.

The client requested range : 36798-103216128 (incorrect value in the last email)
Object length : 103701442
Squid seen bytes(from server): 103262382
Server Bytes seen in packet capture : 103701442

Playback using browser fails but curl requests(with same range) are
somehow being cached.

Thanks,
Satish
