Hi,

I use httpd server 2.2.4.1 and due to some issue of one of the client 
application, client sends a blank(with no payload) POST request. In this case 
httpd wait and times out and returns the HTTP-413 error. HTTP-413 error 
indicates 'request entity too large'. However in this case this error is not 
anything related to the size of the request content. I have not configured 
LimitRequestBody in the apache server so there is no restriction imposed on the 
size of the request.

I would like to know whether this is the correct error httpd suppose to send in 
such situation, if so what is the explanation.

This is the information in the POST request and no further communication from 
the client.

POST /soap/publicationConsumerHttp_v1_0 HTTP/1.1 Content-type: text/xml; 
charset=utf-8..SOAPACTION: "publish"..Transfer-Encoding: chunked..User-Agent: 
Java_1.6..Host: hostname..Accept: text/html, image/gif, image/jpeg, */*; 
q=.2..Connection: Keep-Alive....  

I need to provide an explanation why httpd server return 413 error given that 
this is not related to the size of the request. I have not configured the 

Many Thanks,
Chaminda
