Worked like a charm. I had APREQ_ReadLimit in a vhost ... Once moving it out of the vhost I can now upload bigger files. Should have used the mailing list before making an indentation in the brick wall with my forehead.
Many thanks! Tim Hibbard On 1/25/11 1:31 PM, "Joe Schaefer" <joe_schae...@yahoo.com> wrote: It's a bug in the merge code for mod_apreq2. Basically you have to set APREQ_ReadLimit to its max value in the main server's context (not in a vhost or Location or Directory config). Otherwise use the code in apreq's trunk.

Any file I try to upload that is bigger then 63M I get the following error. (20014)Internal error: Content-Length header (723283299) exceeds configured max_body limit (67108864) So I told myself lets do a little research .... It is Perl so this should be easy to fix. After a little of researching I found the APREQ2_ReadLimit parameter for the httpd.conf. So I added this to my httpd.conf. APREQ2_ReadLimit 1024M (1 Gig) Restarted Apache and tried again .... Still no luck with same error message. Back to researching. I found 2 more things which I thought would solve my problem. I found POST_MAX: my $req = Apache2::Request->new($r,POST_MAX =>100 * 1024 * 1024); And also $req->read_limit(100 * 1024 * 1024); So I tried playing with these settings and all I get now is "Conflicting information" in my log files. As soon as I set POST_MAX or read_limit to anything below 67108864 it works fine for all files less then 64M in size. How can I get mod_perl2 to upload a 700mb file. If you need sample code of what I am doing I am more then happy to provide it. Thanks in advance, Tim Hibbard Senior Program Engineer Ohio University Athens, Ohio 457-1
