Re: Embedded Perl/Resource Limits

2000-09-06 Thread Bill Mustdie 


Gerald,


 But isnt the LimitRequestBody directive  only for 
files being received by the client and not for files 
being sent the other way??

I thought this would be an arbitrary limit that could
either be changed in a source code or apache config
file change??

Any ideas?

Bill

  Hi,
 
   I have a question pertaining to Embedded Perl.
  (But it may be Apache or mod_perl in nature)
 
  From the example upload script on the Apache
 Embedded
  Perl page I am implementing a small file upload
 system
  however I have noticed files cut out when
 uploading at
  around 1 meg. (Reports "Network Error" with no
 message
  logged to the log files - anything under a meg
 works
  no problems)
 
 
 Maybe you have set (or compiled in) a
 LimitRequestBody:
 

http://www.apache.org/docs/mod/core.html#limitrequestbody
 
 Also this creates a temp file, so it maybe a limit,
 set by your os for the
 user Apache is running as, about the max filesize
 
 Gerald
 
 
  Is this an Apache or mod_perl limitation?
 
  And whats the best way of getting around it? Is
 there
  a simple Apache directive i can put in the config
 file
  or is there a hard coded patch required?
 
  thanks in advance!
 
  Bill
 
  ps Yes i do know of other methods such as a
 meta-ftp
  client for files this large but this violates our
  firewall policies etc etc.. :)
