Comment 1 Lon Hohberger 2014-12-19 16:01:50 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1169530 +++

Description of problem:

The high-level problem is https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1135135

The root cause is python-requests having a buggy implementation of a case
insensitive mapping. When swiftclient adds a 'Content-Length' header and requests implicitly adds a 'content-length' header, requests sends both as separate headers. This causes apache to reject the request with a 400 error.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

python-requests-1.1.0-8.1.el7ost

How reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:

Run this testcase:
https://github.com/kennethreitz/requests/blob/f7596c75dce4e87ab83bdf74e8f120a4b1a5ff03/test_requests.py#L514

Additional info:

This was fixed upstream in https://github.com/kennethreitz/requests/issues/649
The fix as a patch against the current package is attached.

--- Additional comment from Lon Hohberger on 2014-12-19 10:32:31 EST ---

python-requests-2.3.0-3.el7ost is in RHEL OSP 6 beta.

--- Additional comment from Lon Hohberger on 2014-12-19 10:39:25 EST ---

It's probable that rebasing to python-requests 2.3.0 is how we should fix this; this was addressed in commit f7596c75 of upstream master.
