I thought that as long as bytes are flowing that the request won't timeout.

Correct. The problem with the non-streaming version (the data binding, I think) is that Apache would accumulate the _entire_ upload before passing it to the WO adaptor. During that time, the session could time out. With streaming, the request goes to the app immediately and checks out the session preventing timeout. The streaming upload was a very nice change both for memory management and for preventing session time out.

Isn't the adaptor timeout based on lack of activity? I'm with chuck --- I have an app that does enormous (multigig) uploada to a DA without any timeouts.

It has been a while since I implemented this. I think the "streamToFilePath" binding is what you need to use. What bindings are you using?

Chuck,

I hadn't considered that. I am using a direct action form post to handle the upload.

Are you using the streaming handler for uploads? If you are, there should not be any timeouts from the adaptor. I've seen uploads of large files over slow connections to GVC.SiteMaker go on for a very, very long time with no timeout.

Thanks for the reply.

I wouldn't up the time on the adaptor because other clients who are using that instance will get blocked and may reach their timeouts.

In my case, I don't think upping the adaptor timeout will block since WOAllowsConcurrentRequestHandling is set to true. Does that sound correct?

Hello Joe;

My LEWOStuff framework (JSON-RPC) has a system whereby a file is broken up into little chunks and fired into a WOA bit by bit in sequence into a stream. I haven't explicitly tested this from iPhoneOS, but it has been used in a production system from MacOS-X to move video files around. You could build something similar to this.

cheers.

Does anyone have a recommendation on how to manage a file upload from say, an iPhone, to a WO app (direct action) that takes longer than the WO adaptor time out? Or, should I just set the WO adaptor timeout to something like five or ten minutes to handle slow/flaky EDGE connections?
