I added a "maxHttpRequestHeader" parameter to the tomcat HTTP connector,
setting it to a high value. After this the flow gets on a little bit
further, but I'm getting an exception during the parseRequest call -

It says that the request is not multipart form-data - but I've already
done that -

                out.println("Please provide the VM name and select the
files you wish to upload and then click the Upload button");
                    out.println("<br/>");
                    out.println("<b>");
                    out.println("Please make sure that the 1st entry is
the config file, the 2nd entry is the XML description and the other
entires are for the hard disk(s)");
                    out.println("</b>");
                    out.println("<br/>");
                    out.println("<form enctype=\"multipart/form-data\"
action=\"CodeStoreUploader\" method=POST>");
                    out.println("<b>");
                    out.println("VM Name ");
                    out.println("</b>");
                    out.println("<input name=vmname type=text size=30");
                    out.println("<br/>");
                    out.println("<input name=configfile type=file
size=100");
                    out.println("<br/>");
                    out.println("<input name=descfile type=file
size=100");
                    out.println("<br/>");
                    out.println("<input name=virtualharddisk1 type=file
size=100");
                    out.println("<br/>");
                    out.println("<input name=virtualharddisk2 type=file
size=100");
                    out.println("<br/>");
                    out.println("<input name=virtualharddisk3 type=file
size=100");
                    out.println("<br/>");
                    out.println("<input name=virtualharddisk4 type=file
size=100");
                    out.println("<br/>");
                    out.println("<input name=virtualharddisk5 type=file
size=100");
                    out.println("<br/>");
                    out.println("<input type=submit value=Upload>");

What could have gone wrong?

Arijit
