FileUploadBase$SizeLimitExceededException apache tomcat

Question

Im trying to upload file from a JSP file and I get the following error in catalina.out. As specified in many blogs, I increased the the max-file-size under webapps/manager/WEB-

Answer 1

I had the same problem. I solved it by setting the parameter maxPostSize in the http server tomcat connector located in <tomcat-root-folder>/conf/server.xml as follows:

<Connector connectionTimeout="20000" 
           port="8080" 
           protocol="HTTP/1.1" 
           redirectPort="8443" 
           maxPostSize="52428800" />

Set maxPostSize to 52428800 increase the upload file size to 50 MB. By default it's set to 2 MB.

Go to the web.xml of the manager application (for instance it could be under /tomcat7/webapps/manager/WEB-INF/web.xml. Increase the max-file-size and max-request-size:

<multipart-config>
<!– 50MB max –>
<max-file-size>52428800</max-file-size>
<max-request-size>52428800</max-request-size>
<file-size-threshold>0</file-size-threshold>
</multipart-config>

This is configured in web.xml for the manager app.

Ex:

  <servlet>
    <servlet-name>HTMLManager</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>org.apache.catalina.manager.HTMLManagerServlet</servlet-class>
    <init-param>
      <param-name>debug</param-name>
      <param-value>2</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <multipart-config>
      <!-- 50MB max -->
      <max-file-size>52428800</max-file-size>
      <max-request-size>52428800</max-request-size>
      <file-size-threshold>0</file-size-threshold>
    </multipart-config>
  </servlet>

The manager app uses the Servlet 3.0 API. If you're using commons file upload directly, it's up to you and you need to configure this manually.

Answer 4

you can use in Servlet like bellow

    @WebServlet(name = "RemittanceDocApi", urlPatterns = {"/RemittanceDocApi"})
    @MultipartConfig(fileSizeThreshold = 1024 * 1024 * 2, // 2MB
    maxFileSize = 1024 * 1024 * 10, // 10MB
    maxRequestSize = 1024 * 1024 * 50)   // 50MB
    public class RemittanceDocApi extends HttpServlet {

    }
