Intermitent timeout errors in Apache HTTPD during request body prefetch

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Application users are intermittently facing "Proxy Error" on their browser after we move EAP 7.1/JBCS 2.4.29 environment. We also noticed the proxy error AH01084 and AH01097 on the logs. We would like to know how to resolve this Proxy Error message and like to know why do we get this error message only on EAP 7.1/JBCS 2.4.29 which was absolutely working fine on old environment?
