Hi,
I am using sun one application server 7.0 i am writing an application for uploading files. I want to restrict the uploading size. I am testing this with request.getContentLength() method. Which is working on Tomcat but failing on sun one when file upload size is more than 1MB.
My code fragment is like this:


if(request.getContentLength() > fileLimit){
log.warn(" Upload size is more than file Limit");//Line 1
request.getReguestDispatcher("/upload.jsp").forward(req,res); //Line 2
}

I am getting page not found in the browser.
i replaced line2 with getServletContext().getReqDisp().forward() method and also with out.println(), same result.
is there any workaround for this??

Any suggestion!? Thanks in advance!!

You can't acquire content length from request if it hasn't been set by client(in HTTP header). You can read the stream up to 1Mg and then cancel it.

if so, it should fail on all webservers but my observation was its failed only on S1AS 7.0.
Ok anyway thanks for your comments.

hi reddy
try the following
request.getReguestDispatcher("full jsp file path").forward(req,res);
