Bug #51198 [NEW]: POSTing performs a GET with option CURLOPT_NOBODY=0

From: Operating system: Linux (ubuntu 9.10 FRA) PHP version: 5.2.13 Package: cURL related Bug Type: Bug Bug description:POSTing performs a GET with option CURLOPT_NOBODY=0 Description: ------------ POSTing performs a GET. Seems to be related to option CURLOPT_NOBODY=0 as used in twitter's PHP clients like PHP_Twitter. Removing this option corrects the issue. I'm not sure this is a bug, but I think this still is an issue that needs (at least) to be documented. Test script: --------------- $headers=array('Expect:', 'X-Twitter-Client: ','X-Twitter-Client-Version: ','X-Twitter-Client-URL: '); $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,"http://twitter.com/statuses/update.json"); curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true); //curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPGET, false); - Does not affect behaviour curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, array('status'=>'hello world'); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERPWD, 'twitter_user:twitter_pass'); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_NOBODY, 0); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION,1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLINFO_HEADER_OUT,true); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers); $response = curl_exec($ch); $t=curl_getinfo($ch); curl_close($ch); echo $t; Expected result: ---------------- HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Wed, 03 Mar 2010 16:10:15 GMT Server: hi Status: 200 OK X-Transaction: ...
