Problem setting POST_MAX
Hi,
when I try to set POST_MAX to a higher value I get
Conflicting information.
I've a mod_perl / Mason app with an own hander, starting with
(mod_perl2)
sub handler () :method {
my $class = shift;
my $r = shift;
my ($app, $return);
my $args = $ah->request_args( Apache2::Request->new($r),
POST_MAX => 200 <<20);
....
}
I've also tried to set it via read_limit() with the same result.
What's wrong ?

According to the documentation you can specify the limit in the Apache
configuration, i.e.,
APREQ2_ReadLimit 100M
I have not had success setting this directive. Nor does this work:
$r->add_config(['APREQ2_ReadLimit 100M']);
in a PerlHeaderParserHandler. If you do have success, please let me
know ;)
----
The Apache2::Request constructor attributes POST_MAX, MAX_BODY, and
READ_LIMIT are all passed to the same libapreq2 method,
apache2_read_limit_set, which, as of version 2.08, has this logic:
if (ctx->read_limit > bytes && ctx->bytes_read < bytes) {
ctx->read_limit = bytes;
return APR_SUCCESS;
}
return APREQ_ERROR_MISMATCH;
Where bytes is the value you specified with POST_MAX and
APREQ_ERROR_MISMATCH is "Conflicting information".

So I have to change this in the source to get a vlaue above 64M? :-(

The best explanation I've found is Philip's:
http://www.mail-archive.com/apreq-dev@httpd.apache.org/msg00716.html
Basically you can lower the limit, but not raise it above the default
or that which is specified by APREQ2_ReadLimit (scope is directory) in
the Apache config.
