What is bad request invalid verb? |
[Edit] |
SYMPTOMS
In Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0, when a request contains a header name that includes a question mark (?) character or another separator character, Http.sys rejects the request and sends the following error message to the requestor: Bad Request (Invalid Header Name). Additionally, when you use lowercase HTTP verbs like "get," Http.sys rejects the request and sends the following error message to the requestor: "Bad Request (Invalid Verb)".
CAUSE
This problem occurs because HTTP specifications state that HTTP requests that contain separator characters in the header are not valid. The HTTP specifications also state that HTTP verbs are case-sensitive.
