Error description The following problem has been discovered with the WebSphere Application Server v 4.01 HTTP Transport: If a client sends the HTTP header: ' Expect: 100-continue ' the correct and expected response according to the HTTP 1.1 standard as described in RFC2616 is to return: ' HTTP/1.1 100 OK '. Currently the HTTP Transport does not return this header.Local fix Problem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of WebSphere Application Server * * V4.0.1 for z/OS and OS/390 using the HTTP * * Transport and clients that use the HTTP * * header "Expect: 100-continue". * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The HTTP Transport does not properly * * handle the "Expect: 100-continue" * * header. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The HTTP Transport does not handle the "Expect: 100-continue" header correctly.
