Question SSLRenegBufferSize - Where to set it?

[CrispinP]

hi,

I (think I) need to set the following in the httpd.conf file:

SSLRenegBufferSize 1048600000

I have tried setting it in the value "SSLRenegBufferSize 1048600000" in the "Additional directives for HTTP" or "Additional directives for HTTPS" but it says it's not valid.

I tried putting it into <Directory> brackets but it does not like that either.
How should I add this directive?


TIA

Hi CrispinP,

1.0486 GB ? Are you sure you want to set this? The apache default setting is 128 KB.

Anyway... have a closer look at your error message and use the EXACT FOLDER in your additional location directive for HTTPS:

<Location "/FOLDER-NAME-AS-SHOWN-IN-YOUR-ERROR-MESSAGE">
    SSLRenegBufferSize 1048600000
</Location>

Pls. be informed, that this will only work for APACHE, not for NGINX. For NGINX, you have to raise the setting for "client_max_body_size".


Pls. consider to add corresponding log - file - entries, when you need further help for your investigations to the root cause of your issue.

I think so

Well, I thought so anyway...

I am trying to solve a problem where I cannot upload large files (anything over 100MB) via SSL. This is one of the things which people suggest.

It seems though I am chasing a red herring - I cannot upload large files over http either. Before you roll your eyes I've already got the normal http post size set to 1024M and it's still giving me grief.... (http 413 - entity too large)

Thanks for the tips but I don't think that is my problem anyway.

I forgot... I solved this already! I really need more sleep.
