[users@httpd] Apache 2.2.0 - Large File Support for Uploads to Apache >2GB?
Hi,
Does anyone know how to modify the Apache installation
to accept greater than 2GB file uploads to Apache?
I know Apache 2.2.0 has Large File Support but not for
uploads to the Apache Server where there is a hard limit
of 2 GB.
I have a php application for transferring large files
and we need to modify apache to accept files over 2 GB.
I have searched all and found no clear answer.
Thanks for any help.

... or it's a relatively-obscure build option in firefox (just a guess:-)

Log the actual content-length sent by the client. I'll bet it is a
negative number because firefox doesn't support large files.
(I haven't tried this myself, but...)

Hi,
I have tried and I get the following error in the Log:
Invalid Content-Length
I have set the LimitRequestBody to 0 which is the default
I believe. I did read the documentation which says there
is a 2GB limit for Apache 2.2.0.
As far as the client I have been using Firefox.

Hmmm... Have you actually tried to upload > 2GB with a client that
supports that? There was some recent discussion on the dev list that
suggests that 2.2 supports this just fine. You may be pointing out a
bug in the LimitRequestBody documentation, which suggests a 2GB limit
even on 2.2.
