SystemOut.log shows the following error: --------------------------------------- [9/28/06 9:35:13:847 PDT] 00000019 WCCByteBuffer E Failed to get next body buffer Note: EOFException may or may not be logged.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: WebSphere Application Server version 6 * * users of the HTTP channel using both * * compression and chunked encoding. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The HTTP channel is receiving a body * * decompression error on the second chunk * * read off the network. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The proper HTTP handling of both body compression and chunked encoding is that Content-Encoding (compression) is applied to the entire body and then Transfer-Encoding is applied as it is sent. This means the server side that receives that body must read the entire chunked body first, then decompress. The HTTP channel was attempting to decompress each individual chunk, thus it received the decompression error on the second chunk.
Problem conclusion
The HTTP channel has been updated to apply the encodings in the proper order when reading in such a body, as well as now applying the encodings correctly with outgoing messages. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fixpacks 6.0.2.17 and 6.1.0.5.
