After looking for this error message in PHP's source, I found get_http_body() was looking for headers with a space after the colon: header = get_http_header_value(headers, "Content-Length: "); This trailing space is no longer required (yet a single space is recommended) by the HTTP 1.1 specification. (http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616- sec4.html#sec4.2) This issue should be easy to fix by removing the trailing space from the 12 or so calls to get_http_header_value(). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=61525&edit=1
