Description

We are using lighttp with several cgi programs written in C. For some reason lighttpd does not always produce a content-length header. Our web-client 'on the other side' has to retry up to 20 times before lighttpd produces a content length. The message produced by the cgi program is always the same namely: "OK\n".

If you always need a Content-Length, make your cgi-script send one.

But Content-Length is not a required header.
