Cannot access RESTful URLs which are returning UTF8+BOM encoded JSON about iisexpress-proxy

[icflorescu]

Hi,

Not sure why you're getting this; lots of people are using the proxy to access restful services without any problems. I remember that even the application I was working on when I became motivated to build iisexpress-proxy...

The content-type should be completely irrelevant. This utility is based on Nodejitsu's http-proxy; I just had another look at the source at the only thing it's trying to parse (and could potentially cause problems) are HTTP headers.

Can you please provide a bit more context?

Can you please follow up or close the issue?

Sorry for the delay. I know for sure that my web server is sending the HTTP with UTF8 BOM. I will try to come up with minimal working example which is reproducing the issue at hand.

[icflorescu]

Ouch... UTF8 BOM? Quite a rare scenario, I guess. Feel free to put up a working example whenever you have the time, so we can notify the contributors of http-proxy...

Meanwhile, if you don't mind, I'll rename the issue to clarify it's BOM specific.

[aignas]

Yeah, sure.
