There seems to be an inherit problem with httpd.conf.
Say you have two servers:
server "foo.net" {
listen on egress port 80
root "/foo_net"
...
Other options here
...
}
server "bar.foo.net" {
listen on egress port 80
root "/bar_foo_net"
connection { max request body 8388608 }
}
When httpd.conf parses this config, it believes "foo.net" is the "parent".
But since "foo.net" has no connection { max request body xxxx } parameter,
it uses the #define SERVER_MAXREQUESTBODY value which is 1048576.
However, if you add "connection { max request body 8388608 }" to the
server "foo.net" stanza, all of the sudden the max request body works
for "bar.foo.net".. however, if will ONLY use what "foo.net" has.
You can't override it with a different value for "bar.foo.net".
I believe this is down to the behavior in config.c, line 454, in function
config_getserver_config:
srv_conf->maxrequestbody = parent->maxrequestbody;
It is always set to the parent's maxrequestbody.
Is this by design?
Thanks,
