I posted this on the talk page for the API. Trying to find an answer.
I did try with 16.5, but still the same error, it is reporting a doubled Content-Length.
Where
in the code is the header formed for content length? Or is it relying on server?
Doubled Content-Length in HTTP Header
MediaWiki version: 16.0 - also tried 16.5
PHP version: 5.2.17 (cgi)
MySQL version: 5.0.91-log
URL:

I am trying to track down a bug in the api which is causing a double content-length in
the
header. This is causing a lot of issues with a python bot. Here is the report from
web-sniffer
showing the content of the api.php call from this wiki. All other pages when called, i.e.
the
Main page, etc. only report 1 content-length. Is the api forcing the headers? Why is
doubling
only the one?
Status: HTTP/1.1 200 OK

Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 Connection: close
Server: Nginx / Varnish
X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.17
MediaWiki-API-Error: help
Cache-Control: private
Content-Encoding: gzip
Vary: Accept-Encoding
Content-Length: 16656
Content-Length: 16656
As you can see this is a Nginx server. On an Apache server with 16.0, only one
content-length is
sent. Could that be the issue and how do I solve it? Thanks.
