Ranged request via CMIS Atompub

I'm trying to issue a ranged request to retrieve a segment (byte range) of a document stored on Nuxeo but it seems Nuxeo's CMIS Atompub request handler doesn't honor the Range HTTP header.

Is it really not implemented or am I doing anything wrong?

Please note that, in the curl output below, even though the HTTP status is correct (206 Partial Content) the following issues could be found in the response:

  • even though I'm requesting the bytes 0 to 10, it returns the whole content (38753 bytes);
  • the Content-Length header seems to be missing;
  • the Content-Range header seems to be missing;

Edit

I fired the request against demo.nuxeo.com. As of Oct-6-2014, the Nuxeo version at this address is 5.9.5.

You didn't specify which Nuxeo version you're using.

The underlying issue was fixed upstream in OpenCMIS 0.12 by CMIS-814 which we use since NXP-14727, it will be included in Nuxeo 6.0.
