Bug ID: 55452
Summary: Redirect
Product: Apache httpd-2
Version: 2.5-HEAD
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: P2
Component: mod_alias

Hi.
According to the "new" 2.4 documentation:
The Redirect directive either only supports the GET method or at least it
ignores POST (quoting "Note that POSTs will be discarded.").
First: What does this mean? Does it mean that nothing will be sent in response
to a POST?
Or does it "just" mean... that the POST won't happen (i.e. the data won't be
stored / sent to a form handler, etc.) but the response code/URL specified by
the directive will still be sent.
Even in the later case this is obviously a problem as it breaks the RFCs,
specifically:
303 See Other (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2616#section-10.3.4) comes to my
mind... which is explicitly intended to process the POST, and just give a
redirect via the Location for the "response" (then by a GET).
But also the others 3xx specifically do not exclude being used with POST.
Cheers,
Chris.
