For my Red Hat delivered Tomcat, changes to the connector attribute were ignored. However, I did find a fix that works.
In tomcat5.conf, after all other settings are added to JAVA_OPTS, add the value you desire for max parameter count like this: # RH KB 100383 # Override default max parameter count of 512 JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Dorg.apache.tomcat.util.http.Parameters.MAX_COUNT=10000" The Red Hat KB article references JBoss run script, but the above works fine for standalone Tomcat. -----Original Message----- From: Caldarale, Charles R [mailto:chuck.caldar...@unisys.com] Sent: Friday, May 11, 2012 3:51 PM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE: maxParameterCount with Tomcat 5.5.23 > From: Haenni, Tia [mailto:thae...@burnsmcd.com] > Subject: RE: maxParameterCount with Tomcat 5.5.23 > I read some posts where it was apparently ignored and the default used > instead.

Not on a Tomcat mangled by Red Hat - you're on your own with that. If you use a real Tomcat, it will certainly work. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
