James,
In my tests I was on the local LAN. Also in my case I would have expected a failure, for example if I tried to load a 2.5 MB file where:
max request size = 2048 `in KB
I should note that files approaching, but not exceeding, 2 MB in size upload quickly. The response time doesn't appear to be relative to upload size (maybe it is but it is so quick I can't discern a difference)
The problem is that any files over 2 MB fail with no response. I'd like at the least to see a 413 error.
I'll keep your advice in mind should we implement this. The users who would use this feature will all be "off-site".
Since I use the pre-stream execute hook for other things should I modify it to add a case to look for criteria that might indicate a file upload, check the request size, and somehow force a redirect to a custom "upload too big" page? Is that even possible, and if so would anyone who has done it mind sharing some code?
best,
Brad
Brad,
I reported a similar problem a little while ago.
My problem was related to the "receive timeout" parameter in Active4D.ini.
If I tried uploading a big file via my local lan it all happened quickly and all would be fine, however if I uploaded the same file over the internet the browser would just hang, no error message, it would just stop sending data.
I increased the timeout value and all was fine.
I would of liked to of seen an error message returned to the browser (this would of helped me debug it), however the workaround is fine.
HTH
James.

I'm doing some tests to get a better understanding of Active4D's file upload commands. I'm working with a simple page that is based on the upload examples in the demo.
I'm finding that if I try to upload a file that is larger than the limit set in Active4D.ini the page will timeout with no error indication. I've observed this with both
max request size = 1024 max request size = 2048
I initially saw it alot with smaller files when
max request size = `I hadn't set a value
From the documentation I would expect Active4D to return a 413 error to the browser, but I'm not seeing them.
FWIW, If implemented we'll probably need to allow uploads up to 2 MB in size.
Thanks,
