[OT] Apache TimeOut directive (was HTTP upload - filesize limit)
Well, I have a couple of Virtual Hosts set up and I put the TimeOut directive at the top of the httpd.conf file (in the "global" area). This way, all the Virtual Hosts get the same TimeOut value. You may want to try putting a time out value inside each of the Virtual Host directives that you want to have a custom TimeOut. Note that I am a total Apache newbie, so this is just a guess. Maybe there's an Apache guru listening that will have some input. Good luck! Eric.

Hi Gitte, I'm replying off the mailing list because I just wanted to find out if increasing the value of the Timeout directive worked for you. Did it? Any other comments on it? I don't want to get bitten by this later on! Thanks, Eric.
Hi Eric,
I just had a chance to test the Timeout directive and it actually works :-)))
We have set ours for 7200 secinds because it's really bug files people need to upload ...
I was wondering if I could do it for each virtual host I have ?? Insted of doing it for every portal I have. Got any experience in this ?
Regards, Gitte Wange

Hi Eric
Where did you find this directive in httpd.conf ?
because I couldn't find it :-(

Hi Gitte, I am doing something similar and hadn't yet had any problems
with file
size... So, I tried uploading a really huge file and sure enough, it choked. I store the uploaded files on the filesystem with LocalFS. When the file upload died, there was a tiny file on the file system with the
name of the
file that I tried to upload. I did a bit of tweaking of Apache's TimeOut directive in the
httpd.conf file
and found I can control when the file transfer will die by changing that value. In general, the upload stops about 4 seconds (an *old*
machine here
:) after the timeout time is reached. So, I'm assuming that the TimeOut
value just needs to be bumped up a bit, depending on what you
perceive to be
a max file size and minimum transfer speed. I hope this helps. Eric.

Very probably, Apache is configured to limit size and time; hence it limits POST size.
