The change in libwww-perl had a side effect of making it look at max_redirect only when the Location header is set. https://metacpan.org/diff/file?target=OALDERS/libwww-perl-6.45/&source=OALDERS%2Flibwww-perl-6.44#lib/LWP/UserAgent.pm The libapache2-mod-perl2 test suite implements a test server that answers with HTTP code 303 without including such a header. GET /TestAPI__status?303= HTTP/1.1 TE: deflate,gzip;q=0.3 Connection: TE, close Host: localhost:8529 User-Agent: libwww-perl/6.45 HTTP/1.1 303 See Other Date: Mon, 15 Jun 2020 19:25:13 GMT Server: Apache/2.4.43 (Debian) world domination series/2.0 mod_perl/2.0.11 Perl/v5.30.3 Content-Length: 0 Connection: close Content-Type: text/plain RFC 7231 is not very clear on whether Location is required, although the response doesn't make much sense without it. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7231#section-6.4.4 Some googling reveals this is not a new question. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16194988/for-which-3xx-http-codes-is-the-location-header-mandatory For the sake of robustness I suppose libwww-perl should be fixed, so reassigning. -- Niko Tyni nt...@debian.org
