Hi,
I'm the author of milton.io, a webdav server library.
Many webdav clients use the Expect header with value of Continue, for
the purpose of validating authorisation, and if necessary challenging
for a login, prior to uploading files. Unfortunately tomcat sends the
100 Continue response (so the client continues the upload) before
invoking the servlet so the semantics of that header are broken, and any
possible benefit is lost.
I found this discussion from some years ago:
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/tomcat-users/200609.mbox/%3cc7eb567e0609050746m296ecf19jce1d3dbf54aa0...@mail.gmail.com%3E
With this as the conclusion by Bill Barker
"it's not a parameter, and never will be. Sending "100 Continue" is required
by the HTTP/1.1 RFC, so Tomcat does that."
Has there been any progress with this? Can anyone suggest a way to
disable this "feature" short of hacking tomcat?
Thanks,
Brad
