Are you compressing and sending a big blob called "data" or something similar? Or are you sending multiple parameters separately compressed? > 4.

Are you SURE it's the first filter in the chain? We aware that the RequestDumperValve will rob the data from your applicatio n. > 7.

Are you able to re-test with an updated version of Tomcat 7? Current version is 7.0.72. Your version is ~2 years old. Can you post your <Connector> configuration? Thoughts about what might be happening: 1. Application concurrency/request-object retention bug 2. maxPostSize value too low -- Tomcat is rejecting the request in a way unexpected by the application 3. Edge case/bug in Tomcat that has been fixed in a more-recent version? - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJYHQsTAAoJEBzwKT+lPKRYUMgP/3vpg67S/g8jGkdNbWz6PhjP /MJjzV8RnThF+NladYyQrJLjw+29eQ9MiQozf4YaXVC5NOfiYKy0kKz1QPw+Cz8q Mqc0ExXYkvjX1/0Op2mlkA2GY9OU976VrSFxE0yFqUomWswtar/MCmbB++fqGWdS 8xE8y62ZuW1gi0EoXU/9UiTqz3AI+ni6vxvXOFuTbzES/qudwLe5ojShHVA8DiIB zityp3gXYvTU0QDPYcVbJBP1PNGGlgqhW0cT4jlujztb8pOieLSpMYb1o1jY00SX Z2E781GCl63H1avQFr4tNNsRkDn7J2Xlsg0X7ixDyeJ3RDrNG+2WjYs8XoQ8WSEI pQ1JSCKa8EVjY87jQFocsI/DH3y9LhiMqo+80EWG3tE932JiTcqxfi0ZamPWF0qn w/fotttCaH638QWQBc4eQErDEFsvBDi0uDP0+lergEptjvduovXmjYTmD0SRtoPM BdmZNGXdIpQtldhvnP0LwhrnKlryVw+Zo5MB3a2IelwxLAAH8BmDYAyRmKc3RTDH lPa9gKWLPdq5NrTKpXqSSbrq0UriEiRpZ66XyBe5IKFc1tX+AvJtChj0ss2wQdKY 6WMPoJsKAiUXii6eYJ9uVSEDfvF1LJr31VyQENHOvN7elRxkvo963XQ6esOTSAbd jEqvpcdkgyz9dvo240kT =Ycbm -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
