I am using the rack proxy to send data using the delete method. The the proxy source is not receiving the request without any body.

If I directly send the same request to proxied target then things are working as expected.

Seems like a bug :)

@ncr Any suggestion on how to fix it or workarounds ?

Perhaps the following in combination with line 80 could be the cause:

require 'net/http'      
puts Net::HTTP::Delete::REQUEST_HAS_BODY    # false

I don't think a body on a DELETE request is proper per the HTTP spec.
