             Summary: Data Modification Request succeeds, but response cannot be created
                 Key: ODATA-1609
                 URL: https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/ODATA-1609
             Project: OASIS Open Data Protocol (OData) TC
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Protocol
            Reporter: Heiko Theissen


Consider a data modification request that requires a response body (for example, creation with {{Prefer: return=representation}} or {{$expand}}). Imagine that the data change is committed to the database, but the subsequent database {{SELECT}} statement fails for some reason.

How shall the server respond to indicate that the data are changed on the database, yet there is no response body?

* 204 No Content plus {{Location}} header after an entity creation
* 204 No Content without {{Preference-Applied: representation}} header after an update with {{Prefer: return=representation}}
