Use Lower Case HTTP in Headers (for Oracle iPlanet, Apache, and Domino web servers)

If you have server applications that are case-sensitive, you can specify the case of the Agent’s HTTP headers. The Web Agent defaults to lower case headers.

For example, Oracle iPlanet web servers, by default, provide the HTTP header variables in lower-case, such as http_sm_user.

Note: IIS Web Agents do not benefit from this feature, because IIS forces all headers to an upper case format.

To use lower case headers, set the LowerCaseHTTP parameter to yes. If you require upper-case header variables, set LowerCaseHTTP to no.
