Can you please show us what command line you're using?
When you upload/post using curl with data pass on stdin, curl cannot possibly
known the size of the data on before-hand (unless a specified file is used),
and then the only proper way to send the data is by using chunked
transfer-encoding.

Yes, put the contents in a file and then post the file.
