Absolutely true to my surprise. That means you can't return proper
content-type and content-encoding with non-OK codes, Apache will
rewrite it for you anyway, which is too human-oriented and imho
should be corrected. I ended up generating usual successful response
with custom status (which is 500 in my case):
$r->status($self->response->code);
$self->response->headers->scan(sub { $r->header_out(@_) });
$r->send_http_header(join '; ', $self->response->content_type);
$r->print($self->response->content);
&Apache::Constants::OK;
Probably worth mentioning in FAQ or somewhere. It took quite a bit of
my time.
Best wishes, Paul.
