mod_deflate does not properly format decompressed request content





------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2003-09-22 04:09 -------
Yes, I think that mod_deflate is rarely used for decompression of the REQUEST 
-- it's almost always used for compression of the RESPONSE. And, the 
combination of mod_deflate and proxying the request to a back-end server 
appears to be problematic.

I tried using mod_headers and the RequestHeader unset command to remove the 
Content-Encoding: gzip and Content-Length: xxxx headers. The problem with this 
is that it causes mod_deflate to be be nop-op'ed because he doesn't recognize 
that the incoming request is compressed without the header.

I considered writing a filter to post-process mod_deflate's output and remove 
the headers, but that won't work either, because the output is being streamed 
(as you point out), and the headers will already have been written.
