Subject: Problem with POST to servlet: 16384 bytes maximum?
Hi,
I have a problem with POSTing an XML file to a servlet which writes the
XML to disk. If the XML file is less than 16384 bytes all goes well. If
it's bigger the first 16384 bytes are written correctly, the rest all all
00s. The lenght of the file is the correct one as in the Content-Length:
http header.
The servlet is very simple (I did not write it), the relevant parts are:
File file;
FileOutputStream out2;
DataOutputStream out3;
......
file = new File(req.getRealPath(filePath));
out2 = new FileOutputStream(file);
out3 = new DataOutputStream(out2);
......
bytesAvailable=req.getContentLength();
byte[] theBytes=new byte[bytesAvailable];
in.read(theBytes);
out3.write(theBytes,0,bytesAvailable);
out3.flush();
....
Can anyone help? Is there a buffer limit somewhere that I have to change.
I'm using Apache 2.063/Tomcat/4.1.29-LE-jdk14 on MacOS 10.5.3
Thanks
Michele Fuortes

Michele... check this out... the default POST size is actually much
larger...
I suspect it may be an encoding problem.... whatever is sending that file
must also encode it correctly...
If you try a diff XML file and this size changes.... its the issue.
Long time since I messed with this stuff... but I dont think a raw XML file
will post...
XML is full of little gremlins that mean something to a url decoder if not
encoded ;)

Other possibility is theres a funny with the https... try do a normal http
just to elim that as well..
Good luck...
