i make some test with drakma and i have a problem with http-request :

The :CONTENT-LENGTH argument is useless in your case, because you don't send a content body to the server.

I think that what you're trying to do should work, but you don't provide enough information to reproduce your problem.

1. "http://stats-dev/" is an URL that doesn't work for me.

2. Which Lisp implementation and which OS are you using?

3. Are you using the newest versions of Drakma, FLEXI-STREAMS, and Chunga?

4. Have you considered to use *HEADER-STREAM* to see if you're maybe redirected?
