apache config check for non available field in request

Post #1 of 3 (155 views)

Hi All,
Consider the request curl -vk -X POST -H "Del-Auth: abcd" '
127.0.0.1/test/newuser' where I intentionally wont provide content type
header for new user creation.

While trying to write apache config file to check the presence of
content-type field in request header, I am not able to do it..

Please help me in checking presence of header via config file.

Tried as *RewriteCond %{HTTP:Content-Type} ' ' *, but it didnt work..

Thanks in advance
A

Without testing, I would write either ="" or ^$. Do either work? If
not, LogLevel rewrite:trace8 will help debug.

Thanks Eric for your response.
Your suggestion :
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Content-Type} '"" worked like a charm..
You made my day.. Thanks you again..

With Regards,
