Hi all, running into this on an old Apache 2.0.46 installation (actually httpd-2.0.46-70.ent from RHEL 3 Update 9). When a user attempts to upload a large file it's exceeding the LimitRequestBody size and Apache returns a 413 error. It appears however that the browser (IE6 and FireFox 2.x in this case) do not display the 413 message and instead show an error as if the connection has been reset. Upon examination of the packet stream I do see the 413 message reaching the client, but after that the server immediately sends RST,ACK packets to tell the client to quit trying to send data. I'm guessing this is triggering the browser to just abort instead of showin the 413 error page.Is this something that could be handled differently by Apache
yes - Apache could consume the entire message body. Issue is that you likely limited request bodies for a good reason (e.g. traffic limiting) so there is no desire to do this. Could we perhaps consume and discard an additional LimitRequestBody amount of traffic before our read-close? Probably it's worth a hack to find out if this helps the client any. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
