             Summary: Content-Length header not removed/modified when 
decompressing
                 Key: HTTPCLIENT-2409
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-2409
             Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 5.6
            Reporter: Cristian Vat


When decompressing gzip or other compression schemes the Content-Length header 
is not modified/removed anymore as it was before, this can lead to unexpected 
behaviors like truncation depending on caller behavior.

 

Originally thought it was a spring issue with RestClient as 
https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-framework/issues/36064

Summary:
 * Content-Encoding: gzip
 * Content-Length: 9075
 * actual read content if reading fully: 56815

 

It's a combination of Spring and HttpClient behaviors but it lead to truncation 
at the compressed content length.

I checked JDK HttpClient and Jetty HttpClient and they remove the 
Content-Length header if doing decompression.

The same seems to have been the case in HttpComponents HttpClient but then the 
code that removed the headers was removed on 20th October in 
[https://github.com/apache/httpcomponents-client/commit/56122fd33fb8a67d23369a81f6e1d89aabf4ba10]
 ?
