I think you may try opening the input stream of the request object, dump out everything till the end, and then give out response.

I get the same problem using Tomcat 3.1 or 3.2b2 when running locally. I have only tried 3.1 with IIS. I don't believe the problem is in IIS, since this application works using a different servlet container on the same machine. > > I have put together a small test case that demonstrates the problem. As you can see from the code below, the servlet is only a few lines long, and it does not even look at the uploaded data. The only thing that is different with each test case is the size of the uploaded file - larger than 40KB fails, but less than 40KB succeeds. > > Here is my test servlet - this is the entire code for the whole thing: > > // start servlet > import java.io.*; > import javax.servlet.*; > import javax.servlet.http.*; > > public class TestUploadServlet extends HttpServlet { > > protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest req, > HttpServletResponse res) > throws ServletException, IOException { > > ////res.sendRedirect("Error.htm"); > > PrintWriter out = res.getWriter(); > out.println("It worked!"); > > out.flush(); > res.flushBuffer(); > } > } > // end servlet code > > If I substitute the "sendRedirect" line for all the lines below that, the same problem occurs. > > This is the web page that does the upload: > > > Test Upload Form > > > Test Upload Form

I sure hope this can be fixed before 3.2 is final. In its current state I cannot use Tomcat since this web app must be able to accept uploaded files larger than 100 MB (large page full color images or postscript). > > If I can supply anything else that will help to nail this one, please let me know. > > Steve Fyfe > CNI Corporation > Milford New Hampshire > > SFyfe@cnicorp.com > (603) 673-6600 > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: tomcat-dev-unsubscribe@jakarta.apache.org > For additional commands, e-mail: tomcat-dev-help@jakarta.apache.org -- [This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and may contain information that is legally privileged.
