500 Server Error from IIS 4.0 with large Content-Length
I'm using 2.0-rc2 of http client to mimic a form based application.
Everything works fine until the Content-Length of my post gets above ~45K.
Then I get an IIS 4.0 genereated 500 Server Error with the response body
reading:
<html><head><title>Error</title></head><body>Not enough storage is available
to complete this operation. </body></html>
However, if I use the GUI based form to post the same content from IE, it
works without problems. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Scott

Hi Scott,
If you are performing a file upload, the browser is probably using a
multipart post. HttpClient supports multipart posts. Please take a
look at
<http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/methods/
multipartpost.html> and
<http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/jakarta-commons/httpclient/src/
examples/?only_with_tag=HTTPCLIENT_2_0_BRANCH> for some examples.

Are you setting the content length on the request? If not, the request
is sent using chunked transfer encoding. The server may have
restrictions on the maximum size of such requests.
Are you using the 100-Continue handshake? Maybe the server is happier
with that.
just ideas
