Hi
I work as a developer on a webb application project. One of our customers is
having trouble using our application through a Squid proxy. I searched the
FAQ and mail-list archives without finding an answer.

I am guessing Squid don't like the multipart/form-data request, since there
is only one place in the application that uses multipart/form-data and
that's the only place our customer is having trouble.

Our web server is running Apache 1.3.20/Tomcat 3.2.2. The error message
looks as follows:

ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved

While trying to process the request:
