Curl fails with content lenght > 1023
Date: Sat, 14 Apr 2007 16:37:19 -0500
I'm using curl to post a form to the server. I have found that when
trying to submit a form with a content length of 1024 or greater curl
dies. It gives the following error: "Received problem 2 in the chunky
parser"
Is there a workaround to this bug to submit a larger form payload?
Version info:
curl 7.15.4 (i586-pc-mingw32msvc) libcurl/7.15.4 OpenSSL/0.9.7e zlib/1.2.2
Protocols: tftp ftp telnet dict ldap http file https ftps
Features: Largefile NTLM SSL SSPI libz
Below is the output of 2 calls - the first has a content length= 1023
and works fine while the second with content length= 1024 fails.

This works: (note the content length is less than 1024)
