Hi Florian, thx for the quick response.
Now I understand your comment in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CMIS-421 that chunks are used to deal with huge documents (at first I thought the other way round because of the slight overhead of every chunk). Taking into account that we often deal with huge images at high resolutions and that other Clients like CmisSync also require chunked encoding I think it will be best to see if we can adjust our cluster in a future maintenance period. Thx again.

The Content-Length header must be set before the request body is sent. To determine the length, the body would have to be generated and stored somewhere. And here is the issue. The body can be fairly large, especially if it contains a document. Keeping it in main memory could become a problem if you want to upload a 5GB video file. So, OpenCMIS would have to put it into a temporary file and read it again afterwards. The performance impact would be immense. To cut a long story short, there is no switch in OpenCMIS to disable chunking. You can, however, implement your own HttpInvoker class. This class is responsible for the HTTP connection. You can implement all these things that I described above there and make sure that chunking is turned off. Not sure if that solves your issue, though. You might have the same problem with other CMIS clients. - Florian Hello together, is it possible to disable the chunked transfer encoding in Java OpenCMIS ? I am asking because our Nginx based Connect-Cluster currently does not support Chunks and adjusting the Cluster affects our whole public available systems (also I am not sure if our FW will handle chunks properly). On client side I already use non PartialContentStream to avoid chunks but I also noticed a „Length-Required“ exception when calling the query discovery service. So now I am trying to estimate the efforts and benefits of either adjusting the Nginx cluster or disabling chunks at OpenCMIS (if possible at all). Thx in advance. Cheers Sascha
