Broken pipe exception on large POST data

           Summary: Broken pipe exception on large POST data
           Product: Tomcat 5
           Version: 5.0.0
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Solaris
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: Other
         Component: Servlets:CGI
        AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: email_alert@rediffmail.com


Hi
Everytime I send a large POST data alongwith a cgi to be executed, CGIServlet 
thrown an I/O exception viz. broken pipe; which's promptly displayed to the user
(though the cgi runs just fine, the data is written to the outputstream and the 
cgi gets executed)
TO prevent the user from seeing this message, I figured out I cud catch the 
exception just after the CGIServlet attempts to write the post data.

Any idea why the write to the Process outputstream throws the BrokenPipe 
Exception
Thanks !
