Hi everybody, My system have very specific needs to upload really large files sometimes. My upload limit is actually 400MB, but I've received a request to raise this value to 2GB.
I'm using AOLServer 4.5.1 and I know this is based on ns_limits command. So, I used the following piece of code to raise the upload size: set max_file_upload_mb 2500 set size [expr $max_file_upload_mb * 1024 * 1024] ns_limits set default -maxupload $size However, the response was completely unexpected: nrunning 3 nwaiting 0 ntimeout 0 ndropped 0 noverflow 0 maxwait 100 maxupload -1673527296 timeout 60 maxrun 100 *maxupload* had a negative size! I started digging up in C source code from AOLServer, and I guess I've found the problem. In the file nsd/limits.c we have the following piece of code: int i, val; static CONST char *opts[] = { "get", "set", "list", "register", NULL }; enum { LGetIdx, LSetIdx, LListIdx, LRegisterIdx } opt; static CONST char *cfgs[] = { "-maxrun", "-maxwait", "-maxupload", "-timeout", NULL }; (...) switch (cfg) { case LCUploadIdx: limitsPtr->maxupload = val; break; } } It seems like *maxupload* receives the value from *val*, wich is an int var. If I'm not wrong, the maximum value for C int vars is 2,147,483,647, and I was trying to setup this value to 2,621,440,000, wich seems to be causing an overflow. Considering all this, if I just change the line below everything should work, right? int i, val; I could just use: int i; bigint val; Did I say something wrong or this line of thinking make any sense? -- Eduardo Santos Analista de Sistemas http://eduardosan.wordpress.com http://twitter.com/eduardosan -- AOLserver - http://www.aolserver.com/ To Remove yourself from this list, simply send an email to <lists...@listserv.aol.com> with the body of "SIGNOFF AOLSERVER" in the email message.
