Re: httpd, SlowCGI, POST_MAX and 413 Payload Too Large

[johnw]

I have this inherit problem too. (explain below)

Is it possible config "max request" sub domain independence?

Thanks.

There seems to be an inherit problem with httpd.conf.

Say you have two servers:

server "foo.net" {
  listen on egress port 80
  root "/foo_net"
  ...
  Other options here
  ...
}

server "bar.foo.net" {
  listen on egress port 80
  root "/bar_foo_net"

  connection { max request body 8388608 }
}


it uses the #define SERVER_MAXREQUESTBODY value which is 1048576.

However, if you add "connection { max request body 8388608 }" to the
server "foo.net" stanza, all of the sudden the max request body works
for "bar.foo.net".. however, if will ONLY use what "foo.net" has.
You can't override it with a different value for "bar.foo.net".


config_getserver_config:

srv_conf->maxrequestbody = parent->maxrequestbody;

It is always set to the parent's maxrequestbody.

Is this by design?

Thanks,
Tom

When httpd.conf parses this config, it believes "foo.net" is the "parent". But since "foo.net" has no connection { max request body xxxx } parameter, I believe this is down to the behavior in config.c, line 454, in function
