"Could not uncompress compressed request content" error
Hi, I have a LTM (v10.2.4) setup to handle the following:
Client ---- (HTTPS POST with compressed payload) ---> F5 ------- (HTTP decompressed payload) -----> Pool member
When client sends compressed payload, there are no issues.
When client sends un-compressed payload (json), the f5 returns the below error: "uncompressRequest caught exception: \"message\" = \"Could not uncompress compressed request content"
Is there a way to configure F5 to handle both compressed and uncompressed payload at the same time.
I believe the 'Profile' for 'HTTP' is handling this and this is the custom http profile that I have:
profile http http_custom1 {
defaults from http
insert xforwarded for enable
}
Here are the headers in https POST:
x-generic-protocol-version: 1.0
Accept: application/json
Accept: application/json
content-encoding: gzip
content-type: application/json
Accept-Encoding: gzip
Thank you for your time.
This question can be closed. Additional checks showed that F5 is actually NOT decompressing the payload, wireshark displays the compressed payload with a compression header and unzip'd contents hence the confusion.
