Hello,

We have a application is jsp which is running on tomcat and using nginx as a front. Now what was happening while uploading the file using application the error thrown by nginx on web browser was "413 Request Entity Too Large". So what i did i add below lines in virtual host file.

client_body_in_file_only clean;
client_body_buffer_size 128K;
client_max_body_size 5M;
sendfile on;
send_timeout 900s;
keepalive_timeout 300;

Then error was fixed, but now what is happening while uploading 3-4 Mb size file browser keep uploading the file and after sometime a blank page appears with below error in log files.

[ERROR] 04:58:32 ErrorHandler - Error encountered

This looks like a tomcat error and not a nginx issue.

Thanks for the reply...
Is there any settings in tomcat for enabling File upload or file limit.

As i tested the same on my windows machine with same setup and no blank page is displaying.....It just show the above mentioned error on the browser where as in Linux [CentOS 6.2 x64] it shows blanks page and the error is displaying in log file.

Trow this "org.apache.commons.fileupload SizeLimitExceededException" into google, plenty of solutions.
