HTTP/0.9 is an old protocol developed in 1991. By default cURL disables the handling of this HTTP version. You could turn it on:
https://everything.curl.dev/http/versions

The better question might be to ask why the server is sending HTTP/0.9 requests (if it actually is)? I would have your server team look into this.

Hello,

It seems you are having an error connecting to the sync server for different reasons. Please attach (or send to cspro@lists.census.gov if it contains sensitive information) your sync.log file, found in desktop CSPro at "Help -> Troubleshooting -> sync.log file" or in your CSEntry folder on mobile. This should contain details about the post request and why it failed.

Hope this helps,
Justin
