Hey Monks!

I need to revisit this topic: my script produces XML data which produces an error on A9. When I save the output and let Apache serve it, it works.
Today I tried again to get it to work and did a whole slew of tests:

1. I downloaded it with LWP::UserAgent and compared the response objects: besides some minor stuff in the header (which shouldn't matter) - identical!

2. I did a wget on the resources and compared with the diff command - no diffs, which means - identical!

3. I had a look at the headers again and also compared mine with a completely different header which also works fine. Below the headers.

- error (my data directly produced by the script but doesn't pass the test)

Where is the invisible difference in my data??
As you can see both responses have the same length, content is completely identical (according to diff) and even the important headers (here: application/xml etc.) are the same...
