> Invalid Content-Encoding Header in REST API responses
> -----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-5109
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5109
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Web Client, Webfrontend
> Affects Versions: 1.1.0, 1.2.0, 1.1.1, 1.1.2, 1.1.3
> Reporter: Móger Tibor László
> Labels: http-headers, rest_api
> Fix For: 1.2.0
>
>
> On REST API calls the Flink runtime responds with the header
> Content-Encoding, containing the value "utf-8". According to the HTTP/1.1
> standard this header is invalid. (
> https://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec3.html#sec3.5 )
> Possible acceptable values are: gzip, compress, deflate. Or it should be
> omitted.
> The invalid header may cause malfunction in projects building against Flink.
> The invalid header may be present in earlier versions aswell.
> Proposed solution: Remove lines from the project, where CONTENT_ENCODING
> header is set to "utf-8". (I could do this in a PR.)
> Possible solution but may need further knowledge and skills than mine:
> Introduce content-encoding. Doing so may need some configuration beacuse then
> Flink would have to encode the responses properly (even paying attention to
> the request's Accept-Encoding headers).
