Chunked Transfer Encoding

[untidy-hair]

Hi, does anyone know if this module support chunked_transfer_encoding?

Nginx with this module returns 400 for the request below

 curl -X POST https://servername.com/files.json -F 'content=@/path/to/video.mpg;type=video/mpeg' -H 'Transfer-Encoding: chunked'

While uploading succeeds when I take off "-H 'Transfer-Encoding: chunked'".

I also found this page mention the module.

http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpChunkinModule "May not work with certain 3rd party modules like the upload module because it implements its own request body reading mechanism. " (I know HttpChunkinModule is now taken into the nginx core module.)

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Unfortunately, in the year 2018 the same behavior is observed. Were you finally able to feed the module with a chunked multipart/form-data?

Sorry for bothering you, but let me bring your attention to this ticket. I'm not familiar with the nginx' codebase, but I feel there must be a straightforward way to reorder request processing pipeline in such a way that the form is parsed after the nginx core had flattened the chunked stream. Could you give any hints?

In 2020 this problem still exists

@vkholodkov we are working on easy-reproduce environment, and ready to start working on a fix, could you please suggest us where to start problem searching?

I think the best would be to talk to Nginx developers and ask them to implement fully-functional body reception pipeline.
