Go issue tracker problem

[_tb]

Hi, folks!

I'm experiencing a problem submitting an issue to the golang issue tracker: https://code.google.com/p/go/issues/list.

I'm filing the issue, get a 'Thank you for creating issue X', but then after a page refresh it is said that the issue was deleted. I thought that maybe it is somehow connected with some premoderation/review, but my first issue didn't appear even after 6-8 hours. I created another similar one, but got the same story. 

Could anyone help me with that? Maybe I do something wrong. The issue itself:

======================================

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Compile and run http://play.golang.org/p/fI1wA1Uq4A

What is the expected output?

http://javascript.ru HEAD: OK

http://javascript.ru GET: OK

http://example.com HEAD: OK

http://example.com GET: OK

What do you see instead?

http://javascript.ru HEAD: OK

http://javascript.ru GET: Error: Get http://javascript.ru: malformed HTTP version "\x1f\x8b\b\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x03\x03\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00HTTP/1.1"

http://example.com HEAD: OK

http://example.com GET: Error: Get http://example.iana.org: EOF

Which compiler are you using (5g, 6g, 8g, gccgo)?

6g

Which operating system are you using?

Ubuntu 13.04

* Also reproducible on Windows 7

Which version are you using?  (run 'go version')

go version go1.1 linux/amd64

* Also reproducible on: devel +c786b0f8eb4b Tue May 21 03:22:52 2013 +0800 windows/amd64

Please provide any additional information below.

The issue happens after sending a 'HEAD' request to a resource and then performing another request. In the snippet above, I send 'HEAD' and then 'GET'. The same would be if 'HEAD' after 'HEAD' is used. If 'HEAD' request is not used, then no such errors occur.

Thank you, I have raised
https://code.google.com/p/go/issues/detail?id=5522 on your behalf.

Something strange is going on there. On my system, if I switch the
order of HEAD and GET requests I see an error very similar to

Thanks, Dave!

Yes, the problem is a bit strange, seems like a reused internal buffer issue or something like that, because if you repeat the 'GET', the error disappears. So my temporary solution is:

r, e := http.DefaultClient.Do(req)

if e != nil {

r, e = http.DefaultClient.Do(req)

}

return r, e

BTW maybe you have some guesses why I couldn't post an issue to the tracker? Maybe I'm not allowed to insert such external links or something like that? Or is it just a pretty long pre-moderation step? I tried twice and it told me "Thanks for issue 5520", "Thanks for issue 5521".

And one more interesting detail: in my case the request is malformed not only when a GET follows a HEAD request. In my case it is reproducible if a HEAD follows a HEAD request too. So it is like 'when any request follows a HEAD request'.

I have no idea what happened to those two issues, I don't have that
level of access to the issue tracker.
