<rich:fileUpload> file size status

rotula May 9, 2011 7:31 AM

According those threads:

http://community.jboss.org/message/55024

and

http://community.jboss.org/message/580024

RichFaces FileUpload size - because of bugs - was limited to 2147483647 and

was fixed according: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-6590

Is this possible to merge this fix on 3.3.x trunk?

Or is it any work around to upload files > 7-8GB?

OK, a more detailed picture related to file size limitation:
an apllication used to upload files > 7-8GB
using: RichFaces 3.3.3.final & facelets1.1.15 running on JBoss 5.1

Digging in the code I found that if setting the maximum size of a
file upload request to 0 means no limit, so the RichFaces Filter
configuration looks like:

        <init-param>
            <param-name>createTempFiles</param-name>
            <param-value>true</param-value>
        </init-param>
        <init-param>
            <param-name>maxRequestSize</param-name>
            <param-value>0</param-value>
        </init-param>

Now to the tests:
1. rich:fileUpload with flash on: works OK for files under the magic Integer.MAX_VALUE value
2. rich:fileUpload with flash on: got "Transfer error occurred" for bigger files & nothig on the logg
3. rich:fileUpload with flash off: works OK for files under
4. rich:fileUpload with flash off: get "Transfer error occurred" for bigger and following logg:

Maybe we can get some help from the RichFaces team!
