Wrong Content-Type when uploading via MAC OS Webdav client
----------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JCR-3240
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-3240
             Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: jackrabbit-jcr-server
    Affects Versions: 2.2.5
         Environment: Jetty 6.1.22, Mac OS X Webdav Client: "WebDAVFS/1.8.3 
(01838000) Darwin/10.8.0 (x86_64)"
            Reporter: ZFabrik


The problem seems to be caused by the way Jetty and Jackrabbit interoperates 
with each other conditioned by a peculiarity of the MAC OS Webdav client:

0) Jetty resuses the request input-stream instance: 
org.mortbay.jetty.HttpParser$Input for new requests.

1) A PROPFIND arrives with Content-Length=123 for example. It seems however 
that Jackrabbit is not interested into the xml content at all.
2) A PUT arrives with Content-Length=0 (seem to be a peculiarity of the MAC OS 
Webdav client, I have no clue why MAC OS is doing this. The real payload will 
be send a "few" requests later within another PUT).
3) Jetty reuses the InputStream which contains the xml content from the 
previous PROPFIND request!
4) Jackrabbit uses Apache Tika in order to sleuth the content type and finds 
the xml from the previous request (ignoring the fact the the Content-Length is 
0)

The workaround I found proves my findings. I extended Jackrabbit's 
org.apache.jackrabbit.j2ee.SimpleWebdavServlet
containing an overwritten service() method:

    @Override
    protected void service(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse 
response) throws ServletException, IOException {
        super.service(request, response);
        
        // make sure input stream is eaten up
        ServletInputStream ins = request.getInputStream();
        while (ins.read() != -1);
    }

Now the input-stream is always eaten up so that the following request will get 
a clean input-stream.
