What does happen? Does the connection hang and finally time out? Do you
get any information in the log files?

Note that 414 is restricted to "Request-URI Too Long" and not the header
itself. 413 would probably be a better response for "too much header
information".

What size Request-URI are you trying to send? An example would really
help. So would your exact version of Tomcat.

Can you post the rest of your <Connector> configuration, too?
