URGENT!!!! PLEASE SEND REPLY ASAP!! The ServletInputStream implementation reports EOF once a byte of value 0xff appears in the request body (of content-type application/octet-stream without content-endcoding); the probable cause is the following line in
org.apache.catalina.connector.warp.WarpRequest: if (this.packet.pointer<this.packet.size) return((int)this.packet.buffer[this.packet.pointer++]); instead of if (this.packet.pointer<this.packet.size) return(0xff & (int)this.packet.buffer[this.packet.pointer++]); (WarpRequest from http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs/jakarta-tomcat-4.0/catalina/src/share/org/apac he/catalina/connector/warp/WarpRequest.java?rev=1.8&content-type=text/vnd.vi ewcvs-markup ) This behaviour MAKES Tomcat UNUSABLE for clients sending binary data in the POST request body.
