As a more detailed follow up to my original quandry, this is what has been
attempted:

I have attempted posting to a CFM version of internalServerReporting on two
different ColdFusion platforms.

The first is Unix-based, 64-bit, Apache 2.2.15 (RHEL 6's version) with CF 9
(not sure of the current patch level).
The second is Windows based, 32-bit, Oracle iPlanet web server with CF 9
(9,0,0,251028) connected via the Jrun NASPI filter.

When talking to the servers, I've seen both a 200 OK response, but none of
the output of the CFM --or any body data at all -- is returned.   I have
also see a 500 Internal Server error message, but there is nothing in the
web server error log, nor the ColdFusion application or exception logs.

During some of the testing, I only had "It worked!" in the
internalServerReporting.cfm -- so doing nothing with the submitted data --
but still didn't get the string back from the server when the Captivate
data was posted.

If I were testing against version 10 servers, I would say this is related
to the XML file upload bug (bug
3222748<https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3222748>),
but the server doesn't get unresponsive.

Attached are two different POST requests captured from the Captivate
submit, in a format that can be pasted into a 'telnet <server> http'
session.   (The exact path and server have been removed from the files.)

When I simulate the post to the original, sample PHP file (on a separate
LAMP RHEL6 machine), it works no problem, but no success on either the CF
servers.

Please please please, someone, anyone have any thoughts?
Thank you!
