Hello,I have java application running on a Tomcat 6 server sitting behind an Apache HTTPD Server (Apache/2.2.8 (Linux/SUSE) mod_ssl/2.2.8 OpenSSL/0.9.8g). I'm experiencing problems uploading big files on it: after around 30 minutes (nearly exactly 30 minutes!) the upload stops. I've tried to solve them with several combinations but until now I didn't find any solution.
In the "standard" configuration I have Apache HTTPD with mod_ssl connected through *mod_proxy_ajp* to the *AJP Connector* of Tomcat.
Apache httpd-ssl.conf: <IfModule mod_proxy_ajp.c> ProxyRequests Off ProxyTimeout 3600 ProxyPass /error ! <Location / > ProxyPass ajp://172.31.252.17:8009/ ProxyPassReverse ajp://172.31.252.17:8009/ </Location> </IfModule> Tomcat server.xml file: <Connector port="8009" protocol="AJP/1.3" redirectPort="8443" />With this configuration I get a *FileUploadBase$IOFileUploadException* ("*Processing of multipart/form-data request failed. null*") with following stacktrace:
----------------------------org.apache.commons.fileupload.FileUploadBase$IOFileUploadException: Processing of multipart/form-data request failed. null at org.apache.commons.fileupload.FileUploadBase.parseRequest(FileUploadBase.java:367) at org.apache.commons.fileupload.servlet.ServletFileUpload.parseRequest(ServletFileUpload.java:126) at ch.arpage.agora.util.MultiPartClassHandler.handleRequest(MultiPartClassHandler.java:220) at org.apache.struts.util.RequestUtils.populate(RequestUtils.java:442) at org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.processPopulate(RequestProcessor.java:816) at org.apache.struts.action.RequestProcessor.process(RequestProcessor.java:203) at org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.process(ActionServlet.java:1196) at org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.doPost(ActionServlet.java:432)

On the Apache site (error_log) I see (with LogLevel info) following message:
[info] [client 92.105.8.138] (70007)The timeout specified has expired:

If - instead of mod_ajp_proxy - I use *mod_http_proxy* connected to the *HTTP 1.1 connector*

<Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1"

Than on the Tomcat site I also have a
FileUploadBase$IOFileUploadException but with a different message
"*Processing of multipart/form-data request failed. Stream ended
unexpectedly*":

----------------------------
and this time on the Apache error_log file following message appears:
[error] proxy: pass request body failed to 172.31.252.17:8080
(172.31.252.17) from 172.31.252.1 ()
Uploading big files directly on tomcat without the Apache HTTPD "front-end" works fine. To make it work I had to update the connector configuration (property "*connectionUploadTimeout*") as follow:
<Connector port="80" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
connectionTimeout="600000"
connectionUploadTimeout="3600000"
disableUploadTimeout="true"
redirectPort="8443" />
As I told you I tried several solution:
* forcing in tomcat server.xml the parameter *disableUploadTimeout*=true
* In Apache HTTPD setting the *Timeout* to 3600 seconds (1 hour)
* In the proxy configuration setting following properties:
*SetEnv force-proxy-request-1.0 1
SetEnv proxy-nokeepalive 1*
* Trying not to use HTTPS but connecting directly Apache on HTTP to
Tomcat
* Setting keepalive=Off on ProxyPass: ProxyPass
ajp://localhost:8009/ keepalive=Off timeout=90000
* Setting the timeout on ProxyPass: ProxyPass ajp://localhost:8009/
timeout=3600
* Setting KeepAlive On, MaxKeepAliveRequests 500, KeepAliveTimeout
14400
However nothing seems to help: after 30 minutes the upload breaks down.
To be honest I really don't know what to do.
Our application has an upload progress indicator, which is updated every
X seconds through AJAX calls: for this reason it's this not a problem of
session-timeout, which is kept alive through this calls.
Our Server is running Solaris 10, but I've also tried on a Linux (SuSe) with exactly the same result.
I've posted this problem before also on the Tomcat User mailing list but I didn't find any solution. Since with tomcat alone the upload works fine I suppose it has to do with the HTTPD Server or one of its module...
Do you have any suggestion? Thanks a lot for your attention and your help.
