<p class="MsoNormal">Just wanted to see if there were any other perspectives. MapServer itself doesn’t accept HEAD requests, nor does it seem possible. It’s Apache is returning the 200 on an HEAD request saying that the document (i.e. the cgi script) exists.
My inclination is to close the ticket as invalid. <o:p></o:p></p>

<h2>Expected behavior and actual behavior.<o:p></o:p></h2>
<p>Using GET and HEAD as HTTP commands should return the same headers.<o:p></o:p></p>
<h2>Steps to reproduce the problem.<o:p></o:p></h2>
<p>Mapserver is behind apache, with the only interesting configuration is :<o:p></o:p></p>
<pre><code> RewriteEngine on<o:p></o:p></code></pre>
<pre><code> RewriteRule ^/maps/([^/]*)$ /wxs/mapserv?map=/maps/$1.map [PT,QSA]<o:p></o:p></code></pre>
<p>The version installed is 7.6.2<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>When I call my server with curl, for example with this call, I receive a png, with the according header
<code><span style="font-size:10.0pt">Content-Type: image/png</span></code><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><code><span style="font-size:10.0pt">curl <a href="https://[MYDOMAIN]/maps/osm-default/?VERSION\=1.1.1\&REQUEST\=GetMap\&LAYERS\=default\&WIDTH\=256\&HEIGHT\=256\&FORMAT\=image/png\&SRS\=EPSG:3857\&BBOX\=670199.864,6227477.568,675091.833,6232369.538">
https://[MYDOMAIN]/maps/osm-default\?VERSION\=1.1.1\&REQUEST\=GetMap\&LAYERS\=default\&WIDTH\=256\&HEIGHT\=256\&FORMAT\=image/png\&SRS\=EPSG:3857\&BBOX\=670199.864,6227477.568,675091.833,6232369.538</a></span></code><o:p></o:p></p>
<p>When I call the exact same url with <code><span style="font-size:10.0pt">curl -I</span></code> to receive only the headers (for monitoring purpose), the headers are different, especially the Content-Type :
<code><span style="font-size:10.0pt">Content-Type: text/html</span></code><o:p></o:p></p>
<p>The difference is that curl use the command HEAD instead of GET, but the headers should be equivalent.<o:p></o:p></p>
<h2>Operating system<o:p></o:p></h2>
<p>Debian bullseye 64 bit<o:p></o:p></p>
<h2>MapServer version and installation method<o:p></o:p></h2>
<p>7.6.2 version, I am not sure of the way it was installed<o:p></o:p></p>
