I find it very confusing that you say "Apache" since your really want to
say "Coyote" which is to say "Tomcat".
http11processor.j...@1547:
if (entityBody && http11 && keepAlive) {
outputBuffer.addActiveFilter
(outputFilters[Constants.CHUNKED_FILTER]);
contentDelimitation = true;
headers.addValue(
Constants.TRANSFERENCODING).setString(Constants.CHUNKED);
} else {
outputBuffer.addActiveFilter
(outputFilters[Constants.IDENTITY_FILTER]);
}
So, as Oleg said, it's because httplib talks HTTP/1.1 and wget talks
HTTP/1.0. All HTTP/1.1 client must support chunked transfer-encoding,
and apparently Tomcat/Coyote defaults to that unless it is either an
empty message, not a HTTP/1.1 client, or the request is not to be kept
alive ("Connection: close" or no more keep-alive slots on the server).
As Simon said, changing this to do ''.join(chunks) is really the best
first step to take.
