Re: [openstack-dev] [Swift] HEAD Object API status code
Hi Clay, Thanks for your information. I am sorry that I made a mistake. You're right that HEAD object returns 200 not 204, that's perfectly ok. Meanwhile, HEAD account / container return 204 with Content-Length: 0. This is against RFC7230, but from the discussion on the Change-Id: I5ab1eb85e777f259f4bd73a3a4a1802901925ed7 I understand that it can't be fixed in an easy way, and may not be worth the effort anyway.

Can you give an example of an Object HEAD request returning 204? I tried a HEAD of an object with a body and also a HEAD of an object of length 0 and I seem to get 200's...
