Re: help with pycurl/win32 and HTTP PUT

I found out some other information using getinfo. I set the
infilesize and this number is 99460 bytes. I checked that with
content_length_upload. getinfo size_upload only returns 96484 so the
full file isn't being transferred and that must be why I'm getting the
400 return code.
