That's a lot of CR/LF's...

 

 

Is there supposed to be any body in there? Your request headers are telling the endpoint that you're sending 110 Bytes of content... But I don't see 110 Bytes of content in the monitor.

 

 

That's the 'Content-Length: 110' bit.

 

 

SOL2167 is basically just telling you that if you're putting a hard-coded string into the monitor, you need to make it look like a REAL HTTP request. So with HTTP/1.1 you have your headers (Separate by CR/LF), then a blank link (The \r\n\r\n sequence) and then the body,

 

 

But you don't have a body in the monitor even though the headers say there should be 110 Bytes of body in there.
