Subject: RE: solrj content-length header missing

 

This is happening on version 1.2.7 of Nginx.  Newer versions do not produce 
this error, but getting that updated is another battle.  The error message it 
returns is 411: Length Required.

Hi,

 

POST (or any other request that sends data to HTTP endpoint) always needs the 
length of the body, but there are two options:

-          If you know the length you *may* set it before (this was required in 
HTTP/1.0).

-          HTTP/1.1 added chunked transfer encoding, so the POST data is sent 
as smaller chunks, each with its own length header. This is the preferred way 
to send content, if the size is not known (which is not the case for data sent 
by the solr client library without buffering it completely which has a negative 
impact on response times and memory requirements). Depending on the size of the 
POST data, HttpSolrServer decides internally if it can set content-length (if 
the body is smaller than the buffer size and chunking is not needed) or not. 
This is handled by the underlying HttpClient library ( <http://hc.apache.org/> 
http://hc.apache.org/).

 

What is the problem / error message of nginx?

 

Uwe

Subject: solrj content-length header missing

 

We are trying to use Nginx to do load balancing and it does not like that the 
content-length header is missing on a POST with an <add>…</add> document.  I 
looked in the code and did not find anything about setting the header. 
(http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/lucene/dev/trunk/solr/solrj/src/java/org/apache/solr/client/solrj/impl/HttpSolrServer.java?view=markup).
  Are there plans to add the content-length header in future versions?

Joe
