Crowd answers with 505 HTTP Version Not Supported

[schneidr]

I've been trying to get this module running with nginx (various versions, latest try was with 1.6.2) and Crowd (2.5.2 and 2.7.2) keeps answering with the same error message:

< HTTP/1.1 505 HTTP Version Not Supported
< Server: Apache-Coyote/1.1
< Date: Wed, 24 Sep 2014 12:37:54 GMT
< Connection: close
<
* Recv failure: Connection reset by peer
* Closing connection #0

I did some more testing and with wget the login works:

geschnei@gut:~$ wget -H https://test.server.local/ --user geschnei --ask-password

This line looks strange:

Could this error be coming from the module, or from crowd itself?

Did you find a solution for this? This was working for me at one stage when I was proxying the request through apache on the same machine running crowd. Accessing crowd directly causes this error. A post I found on Stack exchange suggests that Tomcat will return this error if there is trailing whitespace after the first line of the HTTP 1.1 request, which makes sense if Apache was handling this problem when it did the proxying. So the error might exist with the code of the plugin itself.
