Jetty client: send request with a large payload - jetty

I am trying to send POST request with a large payload using Jetty client 9.3.3
But seems like my jetty client is not sending the whole payload.
Is there a payload size limitation by default?
How can I make it able to send a large payload?
[EDIT] here is my code (in short):
httpClient = new HttpClient(new SslContextFactory(true));
httpClient.start();
request = httpClient.newRequest(url.trim());
request.method("POST");
request.content(new StringContentProvider(LargePayload,"UTF-8"));
response = request.send();
stopHttpClient();
Thanks in advance for your help!

No, there is no limitation to the request payload size.
How do you know that Jetty client is not sending the whole payload ?
Do you have exceptions ?
If you add more details, it would be possible to help you better.

How do I send an HTTP post request with headers and json data through a proxy with WinHTTP (C++)

I am attempting to send a post request like the one described in the title, but I cannot seem to find a good example of a generic piece of code. My work on my project is a bit tedious as I have never used WinHTTP, only libcurl before which is why I decided to ask here. To reiterate, the http request is a post request with specific header values and json data in the request body which is sent through a proxy to a website using winHTTP. If anyone could provide me with assistance, it would be greatly appreciated.

How to disable chunking in cxf webservice on server-side?

I need to disable chunking in cxf webservice on server-side as some clients need 'Content-Length' header in response. Now i can see 'Transfer-Encoding' is 'chunked' in server response and no 'Content-Length' header is sent.
I've found that chunkins can be disabled in spring's context like this:
<http-conf:conduit name="*.http-conduit">
<http-conf:client ReceiveTimeout=“300000“ AllowChunking="false"/>
</http-conf:conduit>
Since i'm creating services programmatically like this:
// media service
Object mediaService = new MediaService();
System.out.println("Starting media service #1 ...");
EndpointImpl mediaEP = (EndpointImpl)Endpoint.create(mediaService);
mediaEP.publish("http://localhost:8081/onvif/media_service");
How can i do it?
Actually, you can't easyly specified to not allow chuncking from server side.
Indeed, it's a client pb! What I understand is that you have a client of your ws who can't modify his code to desactivate chunking?
You have to do that : write a CXF interceptor that would replace the servlets OutputStream in the message with a buffer of some sort (ByteArrayOutputStream or CachedOutputStream) at the beginning of the output chain and then at the end of the chain, use that to set the Content-Length header on the response and copy that data to the real output stream.
Indeed, the content lenght will force the framework to not use the chunking.
I did it once before. I'll try to post you maybe tomorrow a code of such interceptor.

Is there a debugging tool that echos back your HTTP request?

I swear I saw this once:
A website that just echoes back the request info (headers, url, method, params, etc) of all requests that come in.
Sort of like the opposite of hurl.it
Found it: httpbin is a webservice for testing http clients.
the response just tells you the request it received.
You could also try Fiddler if you want a desktop application for doing this!

Problem with Posting JSON object with WSRequest

I want Play to call a webservice. The webservice accepts application/json and returns this as well. With the following code I'm trying to achieve this. (Note, the headers.put(xxx) are added later in an effort to solve the problem).
WSRequest request = WS.url(targetURL);
request.body = new Gson().toJson(user);
request.headers.put("Content-type","application/json");
request.headers.put("Accept","application/json");
request.post();
The strange thing is that my JBOSS server replies: "Cannot consume content type". If I use my 'Simple REST client' plugin in my Chrome browser, and provide the entire JSON Body GSon created and add the content-type header, I get a valid response. Is this not the way to send JSON to the server? Or am I missing some fundamental piece here?
While checking the API documentation on the WSRequest class i noticed the field mime-type
By setting it as follows JBOSS (resteasy) accepted my request succesfully.
request.mimeType = "application/json";

Setting HTTP headers through Axis2 API

I am using apache axis2 server webservies, Basically I am sending xml response to android client through webservices. Here I need to maintain the session since the services per user basis. I know maintaining session in webservices is bad idea, but cant avoid it.
Actually I need to generate random unique string when user invoke first service from android client, that random string going to be used as session id. This session id, i need to set in http custom header, so that android client can able to get it and can send it subsequent requests as well.
I want to know whether any API is available in axis2 to set custom header information on http headers. Same way I need to read the http header, so that next request I can get the session id from header.
Can anyone advice me regarding this?? Thanks

Dead link on #Martin Dürrmeier's answer, here's a snapshot of the webpage that i've found on web.archive.org : Axis2 - Setting custom HTTP Headers on a response, it helped me.
Here's the lines needed :
MessageContext responseMessageContext =
MessageContext.getCurrentMessageContext().getOperationContext().getMessageContext(
WSDLConstants.MESSAGE_LABEL_OUT_VALUE);
List<Header> headers = new ArrayList<Header>();
headers.add(new Header(HTTPConstants.HEADER_CONTENT_ENCODING, "identity"));
responseMessageContext.setProperty(HTTPConstants.HTTP_HEADERS, headers);
