http header content-type
807567Nov 29 2002 — edited Dec 2 2002Hi all,
I'm having a problem doing a POST to a cgi program with iPlanet 4.1 running on hp-ux 11.
The source system is sending a header of "<content-type>text/xml; charset="utf-8"</content-type>" which always ends up with the below error:
failure (15271): for host xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx trying to POST /cgi-bin/receive/receive.cgi, cgieng_scan_headers reports: the CGI program /bv/bvsix/cgi-bin/receive/receive.cgi did not produce a valid header (program terminated without a valid CGI header.
What seems obvious from this error message is that the header is not correct somehow. I've narrowed it down to the space between the semi-colon and the charset. I have no control over how the source system sends, but when i send it to IIS all is well.
So what's up with this and how can I fix it and is it an iPlanet issue with some type of configuration? We have no iPlanet experts in house to assist with this.
Thanks and regards
Jon
