<a name="DESCRIPTION"></a><h2 class="nroffsh">DESCRIPTION</h2>
<p class="level0">If <span Class="emphasis">ignore</span> is set to 1, ignore the Content-Length header in the HTTP response. This is useful for Apache 1.x (and similar servers) which will report incorrect content length for files over 2 gigabytes. If this option is used, curl will not be able to accurately report progress, and will simply stop the download when the server ends the connection.
<p class="level0">Only use this option if strictly necessary. <a name="DEFAULT"></a><h2 class="nroffsh">DEFAULT</h2>
