I have this server using mongoose, which take some request, parse the informations, do an action and return the result.

For exemple, I can query it this way server:port/action?arg1=test&arg2=...

My problem is that any time I query the server I get only "MG_OPEN_FILE" events. And for each request I get 3 of them.

I read that it may be normal to have some in http queries but the problem here is that I don't have any "MG_NEW_REQUEST" events.

Basically, whenever I start the server, the first connection (and all of them after) always returns the following events: MG_OPEN_FILE

MG_OPEN_FILE

MG_OPEN_FILE

MG_REQUEST_COMPLETE

I call my server this way :

int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
  struct mg_context *ctx;
  const char *options[] = {"listening_ports", "8080", "num_threads","10",  NULL};
  ctx = mg_start(&callback, NULL, options);
  while(1){  
      getchar(); // Wait until user hits "enter"
  }
  mg_stop(ctx);
  return 0;
}

And the callback function starts with :

static void *callback(enum mg_event event, struct mg_connection *conn)
{

const struct mg_request_info *request_info = mg_get_request_info(conn);
if (event == MG_NEW_REQUEST)
{

But it is always a "MG_OPEN_FILE" event and I have no clue of the reason :( So if anyone has any idea on the reason of this, I would be extremely thankful !

When you're getting MG_OPEN_FILE, check (char *) mg_get_request_info(conn)->ev_data It contains file name mongoose wants to open. If you have that file in memory, return it's data and size. If you don't, return NULL.

Is your callback returning that you procssed the event? I only return "yes" if I process the event.
