Xavier, you need to be more specific. HTTP 2.x has a filtering schema which applies -protocol- filters after all -content-. Modules are presumed to generate content unless they manipulate the filter stack. mod_proxy dechunks the backend response (it's entirely possible for httpd to accept chunking, and the proxy client to not accept it as HTTP/1.0), since T-E is a hop-by-hop header. So whatever *app server* you have that is chunking and not being dechunked is an issue with the module you have receiving the chunk response in httpd. Chunking is not part of the CGI spec, therefore it's invalid input to mod_cgi[d]. It's completely legitimate for mod_proxy_http. Tomcat has no such issues that I'm aware of. So what app server are you talking about? --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
