Description Ernst Bachmann 2011-03-29 13:42:55 UTC
Version:           4.6.0 (using KDE 4.6.1) 
OS:                Linux

Konqueror POSTs a form with Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=...

Webserver answers with a "302 Found" redirect.

Konqueror opens the new Location with GET, but keeps the "Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=." header for the GET-request.

Webserver (in this case: "LiteSpeed") answers with a "500 Internal Server Error"

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Go to http://www.mikrocontroller.net/forum/test
Post an answer to a thread, or start a new one. (Doesn't require registration)

Actual Results:  
Blank page with error message is shown, but post is saved.

Expected Results:  
New Post is displayed.

Happens with Webkit Viewmode as well.

According to some other forum member, IE 5 under Win98 SE had a similar bug?

Git commit 38eefc85fa7182f89e7dc7905d41e745c275fce4 by Dawit Alemayehu.
Committed on 07/05/2011 at 21:26.
Pushed by adawit into branch 'KDE/4.6'.

Do not send content-type header on the subsequent GET request that occurs as a
result of a POST operation redirection.

Fixes bug for khtml. For kdewebkit, the fix needs to be done upstream and as
such as ticket has been opened there. See http://webkit.org/b/60440.

Workaround QtWebKit's incorrect handling of redirection during a POST operation.

Reshuffled the code in AccessManager::createRequest to make things more
efficient by cutting down on the number of unnecessary branch statements.
