Hi Joshua,
Thanks a lot for your reply.
Yes, I upgraded to 2.0.49 which accepts chunked transfer encoding requests.
Also, I have plugged in mod_put with 2.0.49 using apxs, which cooly
processes chunked encoding PUT requests.
Thanks again.
-Chandran.
Note : 1.3.9 has a bug with handling chunked transfer encoding

I'm not an expert in this, but my understanding is that, for performance
and complexity reasons, apache does not dechunk input. And since it is
assumed that cgi scripts themselves will not be able to handle chunked
encoding, mod_cgi rejects chunked input entirely.
1.3.9 in ancient, in any case. You should really upgrade.
Joshua.
