Apache 2.0 forbids chunked transfer

Hi,

I've just installed Apache 2.0.48 for Windows.
I'm trying to upload files from Java applications into a CGI, using
chunked transfer encoding. This works nicely with IIS.

Alas, when sending a POST request to the Apache CGI with
"transfer-encoding: chunked", I got an error and the Apache log shows
the error
"chunked Transfer-Encoding forbidden".

As far as I know, Apache is supposed to support HTTP 1.1 including
chunked transfer. Does it also true for CGI and for Apache for
Windows? Is there anything I can do rather than rolling back to IIS?
(The uploaded files are hugh and cannot be uploaded with single
POST's).

Thanks in advance
