reverse_http(s) issues

[Sherif El-Deeb <archeldeeb () gmail com>]

For the impatient, both payloads are not working for me "tested on two
separate machines, win7 x64, and one XP x86" no AV, help will be
highly appreciated.
HTTP: the payload connects to the handler, get the second stage, a
session is created, then nothing "i.e. when I switch to the session,
it doesn't accept any command", the exe keeps running.
HTTPS: the payload connects to the handler, but the second stage get
sent "16 times"... then nothing, no session created, and the exe
quits.
I've included the msfpayload command, the output of msfconsole, and a
couple of lines from dumpcap, if I'm doing something wrong please
correct me... thanks in advance.
