Apache2 mod_proxy and post-multipart size
- by Pietro
Hi,
I have Apache2 configured to proxy all traffic directed to a specific virtual host to a local tomcat instance.
All is good and fine but for multipart posts larger than ~100kb.
Such posts fail on the tomcat end with an exception like SocketTimeoutException.
If I connect directly to Tomcat (which listens on a port != 80) then all posts are handled just fine.
The Apache virtual host config goes like this:
NameVirtualHost *
SetOutputFilter DEFLATE
<VirtualHost *>
ServerName foo.bar.com
ErrorLog c:/wamp/logs/foo_error.log
CustomLog c:/wamp/logs/foo_access.log combined
ProxyTimeout 60
ProxyPass / http://localhost:10080/foo/
ProxyPassReverse / http://localhost:10080/foo/
ProxyPassReverseCookieDomain localhost bar.com
ProxyPassReverseCookiePath /foo /
</VirtualHost>
I tried browsing the Apache2 and mod_proxy docs but found nothing useful.
Any idea why Apache2 refuses to proxy requests bigger than X bytes ?
Thanks!
