Category: Architecture: Server (nsd) Group: aolserver3_2 Status: Closed Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Submitted By: Jerry Asher (jerryasher) Assigned to: Kriston Rehberg (kriston) Summary: in what sense has maxpost been removed? Initial Comment: according to the doc, http://aolserver.com/docs/admin/new-ch1.htm#37377, maxpost was removed. Yet, if you look at nsconf.c and conn.c, it clearly (seems to(!) still be in effect. http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/aolserver/nsd/nsconf.c?rev=1.13&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup&cvsroot=aolserver It also seems to have a rather low default value of 64K. What is the max post that is theoretically possible? What performance affects are there of setting maxpost "very high". What other issues are there? I filed this bug as the doc is wrong, but I wonder if the default setting should "be more reasonable" say, 1M? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Jerry Asher (jerryasher) Date: 2002-03-19 20:35 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=20647 Well gosh, I submitted this 14 months ago, and I have forgotten the original context. Right now, I am not so much worried about the file upload widget, as much as just wanting to ensure the documentation matches the code. I do wonder how maxpost will interact with SOAP -- SOAP methods seems to want to push a lot of data into a POST. If maxpost is still present in the code, it usage should be documented. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Kriston Rehberg (kriston) Date: 2002-03-19 20:26 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=16427 I'm going to take an educated guess and suggest that this value is still adhered to but if it's "file upload widget" functionality that you're worried about, that is not affected by this. This is for the QueryToSet only which should not be used for "file upload widget" type things. The documentation has been updated recnetly and I don't seem to find this misstatement anywhere so I am closing the ticket. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=103152&aid=229333&group_id=3152
