I'm experiencing a strange problem.
I'm using Apache as a proxy and submitting data using chunked encoding. The issue that when I try to use digest authentication in this configuration the proxy just hangs and eventually times out. The request never makes it to the server that is sitting behind Apache.
Here is my bare bones apache configuration.
<VirtualHost *:80>
SetEnv proxy-sendcl 1
SetEnv proxy-nokeepalive 1
ProxyPass /
http://localhost:8000/ timeout=0
ProxyPassReverse /
http://localhost:8000/</VirtualHost>
And here is a basic curl command that I'm using which reproduces the issue:
curl --request POST --header "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" --insecure -F file=@myfile
http://192.168.7.158/ --digest --user someuser:password
Is this a known issue? Are there any workarounds? Am seeing this on both Apache 2.2 and 2.4.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Also not sure what the protocol is, but I've also asked this question on serverfault[1]
thanks,
Cory
