SizeLimitExceededException when uploading big files

[António Rodrigues]

I am using Tomahawk 1.1.9 and Facelets.
When I upload files bigger than uploadMaxFileSize I get the following exception.
The server never responds to the request and the browser keeps loading
the page infinitely.

SizeLimitExceededException while uploading file.
org.apache.commons.fileupload.FileUploadBase$SizeLimitExceededException:
the request was rejected because its size (5383438) exceeds the
configured maximum (4194304)

Thanks Leonardo

This was a great help. However I am still facing the same problem.

I have set the following parameters:

    <filter>
        <filter-name>MyFacesExtensionsFilter</filter-name>
        <filter-class>org.apache.myfaces.webapp.filter.ExtensionsFilter</filter-class>
        <init-param>
            <param-name>uploadMaxFileSize</param-name>
            <param-value>4m</param-value>
        </init-param>
        <init-param>
            <param-name>uploadMaxSize</param-name>
            <param-value>10m</param-value>
        </init-param>
        <init-param>
            <param-name>cacheFileSizeErrors</param-name>
            <param-value>true</param-value>
        </init-param>
        <init-param>
            <param-name>uploadThresholdSize</param-name>
            <param-value>100k</param-value>
        </init-param>
    </filter>


The exception is not raised any more but the request still hangs when
I upload a file with size between uploadMaxFileSize and uploadMaxSize.
For some reason the request is not processed and the browser stands
loading the page forever.
With files smaller than uploadMaxFileSize everything works fine.

Hi

Try the demo on TOMAHAWK-1381 (it is necessary to adjust tomahawk version to 1.1.9 in its pom.xml). It should work as described on the comments.

Leonardo

Thank you for your solution. I was, however, finding it difficult to implement the solution.

To anyone else who is having difficulty...

On the JSP page with my <t:inputFileUpload> tag, I added the following at the top of the page:

<%@ page import="javax.faces.application.FacesMessage" %>
<%@ page import="javax.faces.context.FacesContext" %>

<%
        // This code allows for a check on the file size limit when trying to do an attachment.
        Object fileUploadException = request.getAttribute( "org.apache.myfaces.custom.fileupload.exception" );

        if ( fileUploadException != null )
        {
            String exceptionType = fileUploadException.toString();
           
            if ( exceptionType.equals( "sizeLimitExceeded" ) )
            {
                FacesMessage message = new FacesMessage( FacesMessage.SEVERITY_WARN, "Attach Failed", "Attached File was rejected because the size exceeds the maximum allowed attachment size." );
                FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addMessage( null, message );
            }
        }
%>

:
:
.
etc

So every time the page is loaded / submitted, the above code will run. If the attribute that Leonardo created is set, then a message will be added to the FacesContext, otherwise nothing will be displayed.

Make sure you are using:

tomahawk-1.1.9.jar
and
commons-fileupload-1.2.1.jar

Cheers
