Close a HTTP Proxy Server - python-3.x

Question

I have a little problem with my code, I'm doing a HTTP Proxy Server and I send it a random number of HTTP Request and I want that my program close when I stop of send.
I think the problem is in the accept because the program still working always
I tried to put a recv after the accept for checking if there if empty but the program does't arrive there
My code is the following
from socket import *
from _thread import *
MAX_DATA_RECV = 4096 # max number of bytes we receive at once
def start(port_5, my_port):
s=socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM)
s.bind(('', my_port))
s.listen(1)
while 1:
try:
conn, client_addr = s.accept()
except KeyboardInterrupt:
print('\nProgram closed. Interrupted by the user')
exit()
proxy_thread(conn, client_addr)
s.close()
def proxy_thread(conn, client_addr):
# get the request from browser
request = conn.recv(MAX_DATA_RECV).decode('utf-8')
# parse the first line
first_line = request.split('n')[0]
# get url
url = first_line.split(' ')[1]
# find the webserver and port
http_pos = url.find("://") # find pos of ://
if (http_pos==-1):
temp = url
else:
temp = url[(http_pos+3):] # get the rest of url
port_pos = temp.find(":") # find the port pos (if any)
# find end of web server
webserver_pos = temp.find("/")
if webserver_pos == -1:
webserver_pos = len(temp)
webserver = ""
port = -1
if (port_pos==-1 or webserver_pos < port_pos): # default port
port = 80
webserver = temp[:webserver_pos]
else: # specific port
port = int((temp[(port_pos+1):])[:webserver_pos-port_pos-1])
webserver = temp[:port_pos]
print("Connect to:", webserver, port)
# create a socket to connect to the web server
s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM)
s.connect((webserver, port))
s.send(request.encode()) # send request to webserver
print(temp)
while 1:
# receive data from web server
data = s.recv(MAX_DATA_RECV)
if (len(data) > 0):
# send to browser
conn.send(data)
else:
break
s.close()
conn.close()
If someone is able to help me, thanks in advance

I want that my program close when I stop of send
At the network level there is no implicit indicator that the other side will not send anymore. If all requests would be done through a single TCP connection then the end of the connection might be treated as such an indicator. But you are using a new TCP connection for every request so you need to define your own condition(s) how the server should determine that the client will not send anymore.
This could for example a timeout, i.e. if the client has not sent any more request for 20 seconds then the client is treated as dead. Or it might be a special message by the client to signal the end - in which case your code needs to explicitly look for this message.
