Axis 2 Admin Console generates HTTP 414 Request Too Large
---------------------------------------------------------
Key: AXIS2-4764
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-4764
Project: Axis2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: admin console
Affects Versions: 1.5.1
Reporter: Olivier Vanekem
We are using Axis 2 and the Admin console to edit some application specific
parameters.
However we found out that when the console is located behind a reverse proxy
server such as Apache HTTP server, we receive a HTTP 414 Request Too Large
error when trying to modify the parameters.
This is due to the following :
Our Web service uses WSDL2Java generated classes (including the skeleton) and
the console shows a generated parameter called wsdl4jDefinition which is very
large (up to 12000 characters for one of our services).
When clicking on the button 'Change' in the console Edit parameters form, the
actual HTML form method is a GET. This means that all attributes on the form
will end on the URL and passed by to the axis2-admin/editServicepara servlet.
This is also not good from a security point of view since all parameters will
appear appended to the browser url.
The correct solution is to change the GET into a POST. Attached is the
ServiceParaEdit.jsp that contains this patch.
