Maximum POST Size

This section is applicable only to users of Tomcat.

By default, Tomcat sets a limit of 2097152 (2 MB) on the maximum size for HTTP POST requests it will accept. This is specified in the maxPostSize attribute in the following configuration file:

TomcatDir\conf\server.xml

where TomcatDir is the directory in which Tomcat is installed.

It is possible to exceed the maximum POST size limit in situations where your application contains large memos or lots of fields.

Any large POST request to the Action Processor that exceeds the limit might result in one of the following errors:

java.lang.IllegalStateException: Post too large

      —or—

Error encountered while processing action request:

There was no Action specified.

 

Error Details:
