    JBoss kills accept-encoding Header?!?!

    threca

      I'm using jboss-3.2.6 with its jbossweb-tomcat50.sar.

      Now i'm testing gzip-compression of http-requests...

      Using this web.xml:

      Now, if I use jboss with tomcat I get this sysout-logs:
      17:07:35,186 INFO [STDOUT] Http-Request: /ImageBrowser/TestGZIP.jsp
      17:07:35,186 INFO [STDOUT] Header 'accept': 'image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, application/x-shockwave-flash, application/vnd.ms-excel, application/vnd.ms-powerpoint, application/msword, */*'

      But if I use a standalone tomcat 5, I get this:
      Http-Request: /ImageBrowser/TestGZIP.jsp
      Header 'accept': '*/*'
      Header 'referer': 'http://localhost:7777/ImageBrowser/TestGZIP.jsp'

      AuthTyp: null
      CharacterEncoding: null
      Method: POST
      Protocol: HTTP/1.1
      QueryString: null
      Scheme: http
      GZIP supported, compressing.
      



      Why convert jboss that Header 'accept-encoding': 'gzip, deflate' to Header '---------------': '----- -------'?! (Count number of '-'!!!! It the same to the letters of words!!!!)
