Re: Fwd: [FileUpload] "Read timed out" exception

[David López Muñoz]

Hello Shehzaad,

if you are testing your application by executing a form in a
conventional html page in your browser, then
you're probably cutting down some file uploads by
pressing back button, or by fast linking to another page
before ending the transaction.

This is what I sometimes experienced.
Hope it would be helpfull.
David

I should clarify that I'm not using the ISAPI
redirector. Hence I don't think I'm running into this
well-known issue covered in the  fileupload FAQ:

http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/fileupload/faq.html#read-timeout

I'm running tomcat on Linux.

Thanks.

Subject: [FileUpload] "Read timed out" exception
To: commons-user@jakarta.apache.org

Hello,

I'm using the commons-fileupload libary (version
1.0)
to handle large file uploads into my struts web
application.

I'm using tomcat (version 5.0.30) as the web server.
(i.e. there's no Apache httpd).

I have a Struts Action that calls the parseRequest
method on a DiskFileUpload object.

The parseRequest intermittently (not predictably)
throws the following exception:

org.apache.commons.fileupload.FileUploadException:
Processing of multipart/form-data request failed.
Read
timed out
        at

org.apache.commons.fileupload.FileUploadBase.parseRequest(FileUploadBase.java:429)

[... more stack trace lines snipped ...]


Here's the Java code up to the call to parseRequest:

--BEGIN CODE--
        DiskFileUpload fu = new DiskFileUpload();
        // maximum size before a FileUploadException
will be thrown
        fu.setSizeMax(1000000000);
        // maximum size that will be stored in
memory
        fu.setSizeThreshold(4096);
        // the location for saving data that is
larger
than getSizeThreshold()
        fu.setRepositoryPath(rootDirectory);

        List fileItems = fu.parseRequest(request);

--END CODE---

I did search on Usenet and on the Web for people
having similar problems, but didn't find a
satisfactory answer. There's a suggestion to play
with
the disableUploadTimeout parameter in tomcat's
server.xml but that didn't help.

I apologize if this is a tomcat issue (i.e.
off-topic
for this list), but I'm hoping someone can help me
with the tomcat-fileupload combination.

Thanks.
Shehzaad
