Comment (by smallishzulu):

 This problem happens only for the cases like:

 1) Server is there and accpets the connection (handshake)
 2) However, server does hve the patch to PUT the data.

 On; http.c at http_connect, before ffurl_write functions, there needs to
 have a block to check if URL is valid.

 A simple bash check:

 curl -w '%{http_code}' --request PUT --url
 "http://176.235.14.189:9090/OTTCAHLS"/  --data ''
 curl: (52) Empty reply from server
 000

 curl -w '%{http_code}' --request PUT --url
 "http://176.235.14.189:9090/OTTCAHLS200/"  --data ''
 500

 (bash is just an example, a c code need to be written. I work on it.)

 If path is not there, HTTP server returns Interal Server Error and curl
 reports the same.

 I couldn't find a better way to handle this becuase, ffurl_write goes to
 avio.c and you cant access HTTPContext from there.
