Thanks for your help.
The way you suggested worked for me.

By the way, I found that adding a line to the definition of
http-pipe-data in url-unit.rkt might resolve my problem either.
But I hardly understand what I'm doing.

(define (http-pipe-data chunked? ip op)
  (if chunked?
      (http-pipe-chunk ip op)
      (begin
        (copy-port ip op)
        (close-input-port ip) ;### I added this line ###
        (flush-output op)
        (close-output-port op))))
