Richard,

If it were me, I would whip together a quick TCP server like the ones presented
on pp 348-351 of the Camel book.  Have it just print whatever it receives on the
listening socket.  Then send your request to this custom server instead of to
Apache, and watch what the server prints.

HTH,
Terry
