HttpRequest maximum allowable size in tomcat?

问题:

What is the maximum data size I can send in a single HttpURLConnection to Tomcat? Is there any limitation for the request size?

回答1:

The connector section has the parameter

maxPostSize

The maximum size in bytes of the POST which will be handled by the container FORM URL parameter parsing. The limit can be disabled by setting this attribute to a value less than or equal to 0. If not specified, this attribute is set to 2097152 (2 megabytes).

Another Limit is:

maxHttpHeaderSize The maximum size of the request and response HTTP header, specified in bytes. If not specified, this attribute is set to 4096 (4 KB).

You find them in

$TOMCAT_HOME/conf/server.xml

You have to modify two possible limits:

In conf\server.xml

<Connector port="80" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
               connectionTimeout="20000"
               redirectPort="8443"
                maxPostSize="67589953" />

In webapps\manager\WEB-INF\web.xml

<multipart-config>
  <!-- 52MB max -->
  <max-file-size>52428800</max-file-size>
  <max-request-size>52428800</max-request-size>
  <file-size-threshold>0</file-size-threshold>
</multipart-config>

Just to add to the answers, App Server Apache Geronimo 3.0 uses Tomcat 7 as the web server, and in that environment the file server.xml is located at <%GERONIMO_HOME%>/var/catalina/server.xml.

The configuration does take effect even when the Geronimo Console at Application Server->WebServer->TomcatWebConnector->maxPostSize still displays 2097152 (the default value)

Although other answers include some of the following information, this is the absolute minimum that needs to be changed on EC2 instances, specifically regarding deployment of large WAR files, and is the least likely to cause issues during future updates. I've been running into these limits about every other year due to the ever-increasing size of the Jenkins WAR file (now ~72MB).

More specifically, this answer is applicable if you encounter a variant of the following error in catalina.out:

SEVERE [https-jsse-nio-8443-exec-17] org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationContext.log HTMLManager:
FAIL - Deploy Upload Failed, Exception:
[org.apache.tomcat.util.http.fileupload.FileUploadBase$SizeLimitExceededException:
the request was rejected because its size (75333656) exceeds the configured maximum (52428800)]

On Amazon EC2 Linux instances, the only file that needs to be modified from the default installation of Tomcat (sudo yum install tomcat8) is:

/usr/share/tomcat8/webapps/manager/WEB-INF/web.xml

By default, the maximum upload size is exactly 50MB:

<multipart-config>
  <!-- 50MB max -->
  <max-file-size>52428800</max-file-size>
  <max-request-size>52428800</max-request-size>
  <file-size-threshold>0</file-size-threshold>
</multipart-config>

There are only two values that need to be modified (max-file-size and max-request-size):

<multipart-config>
  <!-- 100MB max -->
  <max-file-size>104857600</max-file-size>
  <max-request-size>104857600</max-request-size>
  <file-size-threshold>0</file-size-threshold>
</multipart-config>

When Tomcat is upgraded on these instances, the new version of the manager web.xml will be placed in web.xml.rpmnew, so any modifications to the original file will not be overwritten during future updates.

see this https://serverfault.com/a/805783/162909

if you install only tomcat7 package, then the manager is not installed. need to install tomcat7-admin

it adds webapps\manager\WEB-INF\web.xml

with default 50mb upload limit
