file upload problem

[Oezguer Uenalan <oe...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I have opencms and jforum installed on tomcat 5.0. Im using mod_jk for
connection with Apache 2.0. When i try to upload a file with opencms or
jforum through port 8080(pure tomcat) the upload happens fast. When i do the
same thing through apache(port 80) the upload takes a long time. Sometimes
it even times out. The stack trace shows the following error in opencms.

11 May 2007 12:42:32,668 ERROR [rg.opencms.util.CmsRequestUtil: 539] Error
parsing multipart request
org.apache.commons.fileupload.FileUploadException: Processing of
multipart/form-data request failed. Stream ended unexpectedly
....

Everything else works fine. all the requests are beeing forwarded to tomcat
correctly.

here is an outtake of the server.xml:

<Service name="Catalina">
...
 <Connector port="8080"
               maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75"
               enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8443" acceptCount="100"
               debug="0" connectionTimeout="60000"
               bufferSize="8192"
               proxyName="example.com" proxyPort="80" />
...
<Connector port="8009" disableUploadTimeout="false" minProcessors="5"
maxProcessors="256" protocol="AJP/1.3"
               enableLookups="false" redirectPort="8443" debug="0"
                />
...
 <Host name="localhost" debug="0" appBase="webapps"
       unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true"
       xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false">

       <Context path="/" docBase="/usr/share/tomcat5/server/opencms">
       </Context>
...</service>

this is an outtake of the httpd.conf

I scanned through mailling lists and tried different things, but nothing
really helped. Please help.

Thanks in advance for any advice,
