-------------------------------------------
thank you [~abernal] and [~olegk] i'll try to execute my request directly by
using apache (without http4k)
> Apache HttpClient removes the `Content-Length` header from a DELETE request
> even when the request has a body and the header is explicitly set.

> Key: HTTPCLIENT-2382
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-2382
> Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: HttpClient (classic)
> Reporter: Anas Quazbary
> Priority: Trivial
> Fix For: 5.3.1
>
>
> _(Usage via http4k-client-apache 5.29.0.0 with Apache HttpClient 5.3.1)_
> When using Apache HttpClient (via http4k in Kotlin), I noticed that the
> {{Content-Length}} header is removed from DELETE requests, even when:
> * a body is explicitly set, and
> * the header is manually added to the request.
> As a result, the request is rejected or mishandled by the server expecting
> the header (e.g., visible via ngrok).
> *To Reproduce*
> Steps to reproduce the behavior:
> # Create a {{DELETE}} request with a JSON body and explicitly set the
> {{Content-Length}} header.
> # Send it using Apache HttpClient (via http4k).
> # Observe the outgoing request (e.g., via ngrok or a proxy).
> # {{Content-Length}} is missing.
> kotlin :
> {code:java}
> val request = Request(Method.DELETE, "https://xxx.ngrok.io";)
> .header("Content-Type", "application/json")
> .header("Content-Length", "16")
> .body("""{"some": "data"}""")val client = ApacheClient()
> val response = client(request) {code}
> *Expected behavior:*
> Either:
> Apache HttpClient should honor manually set Content-Length when a body is
> present,
> or automatically compute and include it when a body is given, even for DELETE
> requests.
> Thank you for your time and assistance. Please let me know if you need any
> additional information to help diagnose this issue.
