[MarkLogic Dev General] Maybe this has already been covered, but can Xfer-Encoding "chunked" http requests be handled in ML Server

[Sam Neth]

I'm fairly certain the HTTP application server does not handle chunked requests.

I apologize, I am powerfully misstating my intentions.

I have an HTTP Application Server

I must accept Transfer-Encoding: Chunked messages into it

At present, the messages are timing out before my Application Server can handle them

Thanks again!

I'm not aware of anything in the HTTP 1.1 spec that would require a server to return a Transfer-Encoding: Chunked header.
That is, the TE request header lists encodings that a server MAY use, but a server is not ever required to send back chunked data.  In section 14.39 on the TE header, it says explicitly, "A message with no transfer-coding is always acceptable. "

That is, there is no such thing (in the HTTP spec) as an "inbound request for chunked data."

Allen,

Are you asking:  "Can I make a request via xdmp:http-get() to a server that returns Transfer-Encoding: Chunked data"?

I have had any luck finding doumentation on this.  Basically I need to be able to handle http posts without Content-Length headers

Thanks!
