Unify line endings in Request Body

[Geolim4]

App Details:

Postman for Windows
Version 5.5.2
win32 10.0.16299 / x64

Issue Report:

When sending a request postman is sometimes failing to sent the data.
I send the data as a x-www-form-encoded with key/value and to get it working I had to switch from bulk edit to kv edit multiple times before I can receive the data on the webserver side.

I noticed this issue since I migrated to Postman for Windows, I did not have this issue with Chrome app tho.

This issue is getting very annoying :(

Hi @Geolim4, this looks super weird. Can you open up the Postman Console (Ctrl+Alt+C), and resend your request? You should see the request in the Console. Can you check if the request body is in here?

[Geolim4]

Okay, after looking the console I found out the issue.

Postman send Windows line ending (\r\n) instead of Unix line ending (\n), therefore the web server is unable to natively parse correctly the body content :(

When I manipulated k/v in bulk edit mode Postman reformatted the line ending to Unix one...

In the end, i'm not sure if this bug is really Postman-related or php7-related...

@madebysid What's are your thoughts about this ?

I think I'm having the same problem. Calling the endpoint via Paw works fine, but not with Postman.
@Geolim4 did you solved this?

[Geolim4]

@aroblu94 Yes by forcing line-ending on the server side :)
This is ugly but it allows me to develop quietly.

@Geolim4 We're glad that you could make it work.

Howerver, Postman as a client should be handling this type of requests. I'm reopening this to track a fix for this in Postman.
