Luasocket 3.0 rc-1 is here: https://github.com/diegonehab/luasocket

This one fixes bugs in LuaSocket 2.0.2

Interesting thing is that Zerobranestudio uses LuaSocket 3.0 rc-1 but its version seems to work fine when retrieving the page above compared to the version I compiled. So now I am in the process of comparing those.

Thanks I will compare the requests each of them sends out, especially the headers.

Hi,
If I do the following:
local h = require "socket.http"




print(h.request([[http://www.amved.com/milindsweb/tableDB.html]]))
It prints the correct HTML if I use luasocket 2.0 but if I use luasocket 3.0 it prints out this:


<html>
<pre>pageok</pre>
</html>
200     table: 0092BD00 HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Is this a bug or something needs to be done differently?

Thanks,
Milind
I didn't know there *was* a LuaSocket 3.0.

My guess would be it's not setting the Host HTTP header, so you're getting some default page.
