  • 1.  413 Request Entity Too Large - WAS 9

    Posted Mon October 21, 2024 07:43 AM

    Hello All, When I am trying to upload a content via my application uploader tool on WAS 9 i am getting this error message :

    413 Request Entity Too Large . The requested resource does not allow request data with POST requests, or the amount of data provided in the request exceeds the capacity limit.

    If I am trying to load a content with smaller size I am able to do so. Our app needs to load large size data. 

    kindly suggest how to fix this.

    Hello Ramya,

    what does your architecture look like? Do you upload to WAS directly or do you have an HTTP Server with a plugin as an intermediary service before WAS in place? Do you get the error message for all uploads or only for uploads bigger that a certain size?

    Did you check out these posts: https://serverfault.com/questions/311610/how-to-increase-the-size-of-http-post-request-in-websphere and https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16584508/is-there-a-restriction-on-the-maximum-size-of-post-data-on-a-web-application-ser

    Hope this helps.

    Have a good day, Hermann
