Add Content-* headers for empty POST requests #368
Conversation
|
As the author of #249 this looks good to me, not having actually run the code in several years. |
|
The HTTP method POST by definition contains an entity body. As such, the Content-Length request header must be set, or the entity body must be sent via HTTP/1.1 Transfer-Encoding: chunked (or HTTP/2). There are numerous prior tickets (#249, #318) and plenty of blog posts about this issue. Additionally, this bug reintroduced a bug fixed 12 years ago in Wordpress. https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8605 The patch in this PR is simple and looks reasonable, and this PR is over a year old. #249 is from 2016 (!) What is holding up actioning this PR, committing and releasing a fix? |
