Is there a way to test MESH decoding and chunking?

We’re currently using a local MESH Sandbox instance to develop against however because it’s not fully featured we’re only finding problems sending chunks and compressed chunks in particular when we reach our QA stage when making use of the INT environment.

Is there another instance we can use that attempts decompression and the piecing back together of chunks?

The error messages we receive back from the INT box when we’re QA testing aren’t very descriptive either, with a general “417 error decoding content”.

Hi Lee,

The sandbox should support gzip compression of the individual chunks.

I can see in our logs that the failure you are seeing is due to a zlib error Error -3 while decompressing data: incorrect header check.

Can I check with you… the content_encoding is set to gzip in the POST request - is the second chunk independently gzipped? i.e. can the chunk itself be independently decompressed?

Many thanks,

Dave
