You've got the close() before the sendRedirect().
You probably need to have it the other way round:
{
ServletInputStream in = request.getInputStream();
in.skip(lUploadSize);
response.sendRedirect("/error.htm");
in.close();
}
a call to close() will close the stream and therefore the socket
connection. The browser will think "oh dear the connection has closed"
and give you that message.
As a general note you probably don't need the close at all with a
sendRedirect()... most engines will take over stream handling for
you.
Some people believe that you should never have a servlet close() the
stream because the servlet hasn't opened it. But IMHO close()ing makes
the code more specific and engines should handle it properly.
