Problem description

The Content-Type header in the object metadata contains invalid characters.

Causes

A PostObject request was submitted with object metadata that includes a Content-Type header value containing one or more invalid characters. Invalid characters include:

• Carriage return (\r)

• Line feed (\n)

Examples

The following PostObject form field contains an invalid Content-Type value because the string was constructed with a trailing line feed character:

Content-Type: image/jpeg\n

A valid Content-Type value contains only printable ASCII characters with no control characters:

Content-Type: image/jpeg
Content-Type: application/octet-stream
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

When constructing PostObject requests programmatically, string concatenation bugs often introduce \r or \n characters into header values. Verify that your string-building logic strips trailing whitespace and line endings before setting the Content-Type field.

Solutions

Inspect the Content-Type value in the form fields of your PostObject request and remove any invalid characters. For the correct format and valid values, see How do I specify the Content-Type header?
