Help with HTTP Content-Length header issue?

I have a cookbook that uses a remote file resource to get a file from an nginx file server, like this. The server is NOT configured for gzip-like compression.

remote_file “/tmp/vcredist_x64-1.0.2013.exe” do
source " http://nginx-server/path/ vcredist_x64-1.0.2013.exe "
end

When I run it I get…

================================================================================
Error executing action create on resource ‘remote_file[c:\windows\temp\chef-client\vcredist_x64-1.0.2013.exe]’

Chef::Exceptions::ContentLengthMismatch

Response body length 1592008 does not match HTTP Content-Length header 2155670.

What’s strange is this has been working, and my cookbook has NOT changed in months. I did upgrade to chef-client 12.3.0, so I tried 12.2.1, but that gives the same error.

Any clues?

Sounds kinda like one that I ran into awhile back:

Some more details here:

Double check your nginx error log to see if something similar is occurring
