Here's the reference to it in the Apache docs: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/core.html#timeout In my httpd.conf it's on line 105 -----8<-- Start Snip --8<----- # The commented-out values below are the built-in defaults.

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.

We are using apache in front of Zserver and ProxyPass to redirect to the zope sites.

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