I am trying to use the CXF JaxRS client (version 2.7.0) and am having an

It works fine when I use Postman in chrome.

The main difference is that I don't see a Content-Length header in the
output of the client.

Is this a known limitation?  I am wondering if the client is trying to use
chunked encoding instead of calculating a Content-Length? Is there a way to
turn off Chunked encoding as a test?

I can see CXF HttpConduit only optionally allows chunking for POST and non-empty PUT, so my guess it is HTTPUrlConnection which does something specific about it. Consider trying CXF Async HTTP Conduit (Apache Client based) which can be run in a sync mode, you can enable it by:

WebClient.getConfig(wc).getRequestContext().put("use.async.http.conduit", true);

and add a dependency to "cxf-rt-transports-http-hc"
