Hi Greg, Good catch, this appears to be a bug that affects 0.14.*. It only happens when you rely on the server to generate an object's key. If you provide the key yourself, then the content type header acts as expected.
This is actually already fixed in the master branch, and the fix will be included in the next release of Riak. (Just a few weeks away!) I've filed a ticket for it here: https://issues.basho.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1182 Best, Rusty On Sun, Sep 11, 2011 at 1:39 AM, Greg Stein <gst...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hey all, > > I just ran into a questionable situation.
