Description
When returning headers from an external process, the behavior depends on capitalization, and is radically different in each case.
Consider the external process return
a: { "code":200, "json":
{ "hello":"world" }, "headers": {} }.
If returned as (a), the server serves
{ "hello":"world" }with header "Content-Type: application/json".
If the json is modified to
b: { "code":200, "json":
{ "hello":"world" }, "headers":
{"Content-type":"text/plain"} }
c: { "code":200, "json":
, "headers":
{"content-type":"text/plain"}}
If returned as (b) or (c), the server serves
{ "hello":"world" }with header "Content-Type: text/plain, application/json".
If the json is modified to
d: c: { "code":200, "json":
{ "hello":"world" }, "headers":
{"Content-Type":"text/plain"}}
If returned as (d), the server serves
{ "hello":"world" }with header "Content-Type: text/plain".
There should be one well defined behavior when a "content-type" header is returned from an external process.
To reproduce this error, setup an external process and return json strings as specified above.
