Hi Mikkel, I went ahead and implemented the proposed workaround. Now the AWS authorization header is computed with an "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" content-type header value when: - no content found - method is not PUT - Java version starts with "1.4" or "1.5"
As I haven't tested it directly against Amazon S3, could you let me know if it works? http://www.restlet.org/downloads/current.zip Best regards, Jerome Louvel > -----Message d'origine----- > De : Jerome Louvel > Envoyé : samedi 28 octobre 2006 12:09 > À : discuss@restlet.tigris.org > Objet : RE: Adding standard headers > > > Hi Mikkel, > > As you said, the problem lies in a JDK bug (details at: > http://www.restlet.org/faq#18).
