Title: RE: How to use HTTP1.0 by default

If an HTTP/1.1 server receives an HTTP/1.0 request, it should respond with HTTP/1.0. The response will say "HTTP/1.1" because that indicates the version that the server is capable of providing, not the version that it is using for the response.

RFC 2145 says "An HTTP server MAY send a lower response version, if it is known or suspected that the client incorrectly implements the HTTP specification, but this should not be the default, and this SHOULD NOT be done if the request version is HTTP/1.1 or greater." You can probably draw your own conclusions as to what Tomcat probably does.

Therefore, if you want Tomcat to respond using HTTP/1.0, send it an HTTP/1.0 request.
