Thanks Jim
I should have mentioned that there was nothing in the error log either.
So, how would you recommend I capture the fact that the uploaded file is larger
than our limit, and feedback to the user?
thanks
Brian

Hi,
The short answer is no, there's no access log entry although there may be a
server log message buried in the chatter.
The reason is the access log is a "trace" that fires at the end of an HTTP
connection and the request isn't a connection until all the content has been
read and the data structures hooked up and passed over to a connection thread.
In retrospect, transaction logging should be a lower-level built-in that can
deal with logging these aborted transactions.
You can see what may be logged in the server log by looking at the LogReadError
function at the end of nsd/driver.c, maybe a E_RRANGE, "max request exceeded".
