#1797: Content-Type/Content-Length should miss on 304 requests
------------------------+----------------------
Reporter: shakalandy | Type: defect
Status: new | Priority: normal
Milestone: | Component: varnishd
Version: 4.0.3 | Severity: normal
Keywords: |
------------------------+----------------------
As far as i understand RFC 2616 correctly the 304 response must not
include other entity headers such as Content-Type/Content-Length
(http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html#sec10.3.5).
In our installation with merely default vcl in vcl_deliver varnish
includes both Content-Type/Content-Length in a 304 response.
This may confuse other upstream caches and may force an unnecessary
revalidation of an object.
maybe related to #529 ?
