Thanks, but I am afraid I do not understand your reply.
Should a body with size > POST_MAX cause the upload to fail? Does it
send an error back to the client? It did not appear to do either of
those things for me.
In my situation I want to still process the request, and return ok to
the client, just not accept the file!
What is a 'fat' apr object?
if you're using libapreq, i the APR object will have an error and i
think the upload method will die if you try calling it . in all
situations, i believe calling $apr-> body_status will show you an
error message. For an exceeded POST_MAX, this will work
my $error = $self->PageUser->ApacheRequest->body_status();
if ( $error eq 'Exceeds configured maximum limit' ) {}
see:
http://httpd.apache.org/apreq/docs/libapreq2/
group__apreq__xs__request.html#body_status
i can't comment on other situations. i'm not sure exactly how data
is handled in terms of when the connection is closed. that might be
in the http spec. i'm also not sure how a proxy server would fit into
this , if you were limiting the body content on the proxy.
'fat' is vs 'skinny' -- 10mb vs 10k.
