Dealing with older apache, ruby, passenger setup. Hoping to mimic behavior and show OPS that chunked encoding isn't working correctly.
With python requests (http://docs.python-requests.org/en/master/) all POST calls work correctly, but twisted requests are failing. I'm thinking (and hoping) it's failing because twisted is chunking the post body. When I send the requests to a twisted endpoint like below the requests are successful and the response is identical. from twisted.web import server, resource from twisted.internet import reactor class Simple(resource.Resource): isLeaf = True def render_POST(self, request): print request.content.getvalue() return request.content.getvalue() site = server.Site(Simple()) reactor.listenTCP(8080, site) reactor.run() On Mon, Jan 30, 2017 at 2:39 PM, Glyph Lefkowitz <gl...@twistedmatrix.com> wrote: > > On Jan 30, 2017, at 13:47, Kevin Mcintyre <kebi...@gmail.com> wrote: > > hey all - quick question.
