Hello,
I'm trying to set up a SOAP service, which is running on an internal
machine, to be visible from our main web server. I've set up a reverse
Proxy as follows on our main web server:
ProxyPass /obfuscated/url
http://internalhost:6060/obfuscated/url
ProxyPassReverse /obfuscated/url http://internalhost:6060/obfuscated/url
The client POSTs some data when it requests /obfuscated/url, and it uses
chunked encoding to do this. When it directly accesses the internal
host at http://internalhost:6060/obfuscated/url, it has no problem.
However, when it tries to access the page as proxied through our web
server, it gets an error from our server: 411 Length Required.
Our server's error log shows:
[Tue Jan 30 15:04:54 2007] [error] [client x.x.x.x] chunked
Transfer-Encoding forbidden: /obfuscated/url
But I can't tell where chunked encoding is being forbidden. I'm pretty
sure it's allowed elsewhere in my site, as the site is quite large and
I've never run into this before. I tried to fix this by fiddling with
the environment variables which mod_proxy sees, setting
<Location /obfuscated/url>
SetEnv proxy-sendcl 1
</Location>
(and proxy-sendchunked when that didn't work) but haven't had any luck.
Can anyone point me towards where to look? Do I need to make the
client send a content-length header instead of using chunked encoding?
Or can I make our server accept the chunked encoding?
thanks very much for any help,
