You could also set the HTTP protocol version to 1.0 which does not use chunked data transfer. stub._setProperty ( org.apache.axis.MessageContext.HTTP_TRANSPORT_VERSION , org.apache.axis.transport.http.HTTPConstants.HEADER_PROTOCOL_V10 ) ; HTTP 1.1 uses chunked data transfer by default.

This is what I did: added an option: Options.setProperty(HTTPConstants.CHUNKED, false); This forces Axis to add the Content-Length field in the HTTP Header. Hope that helps.

The request is missing the "content-length" in the HTTP-Header (This problem is knwon from Axis 1.2 ...). Instead there is a "Transfer-Encoding: chunked"! Is not a problem as long I am using an Axis Web-Service - but if I call a Service which is implemented with the old IBM SOAP or a Lotus Notes Service, I got the following error. <SOAP-ENV:Fault> <faultcode>SOAP-ENV:Protocol</faultcode> <faultstring>Content length must be specified.</faultstring> <faultactor>rpcrouter</faultactor> </SOAP-ENV:Fault> Is there any known solution for this problem - is it a bug or do there exists some propertie(s) I can set to handle this problem Some helpfull hints will be great - Thanks in advance.
