    ram4444 Thanks for following up and sharing that, and apologies for the delay. (It appears your latest message may have initially been caught in a spam filter.)

     

    Anyway, I see your client is sending a "TE" header in the request, but no "Connection" header. According to the specification, the corresponding "Connection" header value is required when setting the "TE" header. I am able to reproduce the error you see when setting "TE" and not "Connection", and I am able to resolve the error by setting both "TE" and "Connection" (specifically, "Connection: TE"). If you are not able to remove the "TE" header your client is setting, you should try to have it set "Connection: TE" as well.
