There are some corner cases where dechunking code fails, but they are very unlikely to affect you. I do not know what forum links you have read, but I do not recall any general long-standing problems with chunking support in modern Squids. > If I instead only specify to pass the response to my adapter via > ECAP then the issue goes away.

Many adapters strip Content-Length header and effectively switch to chunked encoding because it is easier and cheaper to adapt message bodies that way. Does your eCAP adapter remove the Content-Length header (possibly replacing it with Transfer-Encoding:chunked)? Such actions are OK from HTTP point of view, but they may expose lack of chunked request support at the _origin server_. > I assume if the request is passed to the adapter then the header has > to be constructed at a time when the length of the file contents is > not known? Hence has to use chunking. Squid does not "construct" that request header from scratch -- it essentially forwards the request header sent by the client. If I interpret your description correctly, the client sends a Content-Length:N header, so the size of the request body (i.e. N bytes) is known to Squid and, hence, to the REQMOD eCAP adapter in advance. It is possible that your adapter strips that Content-Length header, and then the origin server complains because it cannot handle chunked requests. If that is what's happening, then you will need to seek support from the adapter makers.
