RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

+++ 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.

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.

Fixed in 7.2 branch: 65cfc56343087f64dd0153f4ec8c3615f0c23d7c

This bug has been closed as CURRENTRELEASE due to delivery of the fix in a z-stream. As the component is not on ACL, the fix is currently included in y-stream as well.
