Hi bro.

Include the maxthred parameter in the jbossweb.sar/server.xml (jboss 5+)

like bellow:

Rgards!

In Jboss 7.x there ins't more jbossweb.sar/server.xml.

You have do this modify in the file standalone.xml or in the file the yoour start (-server-config=)

The configuration is the <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:web:1.2" ...

but I did not found properties for connectionTimeout, maxThreads or thread-pools within the schema (docs/schema/jboss-as-web*)

What I use is max-connections attribute like this:

            <connector name="http" protocol="HTTP/1.1" scheme="http" socket-binding="http" max-connections="10000"/>

However the complete way with more options is to add an executor which is a little more work.

Sorry

You can configure also this tag

01.<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:threads:1.0">

02.<bounded-queue-thread-pool name="http-executor"

03.blocking="true">

04.<core-threads count="10" per-cpu="20" />

05.<queue-length count="10" per-cpu="20" />

06.<max-threads count="10" per-cpu="20" />

07.<keepalive-time time="10" unit="seconds" />

08.</bounded-queue-thread-pool>

09.</subsystem

If you are  increasing the thread count too much, you will:

•    Consume a good chunk of memory

•    Your system will spend too much time-context switching

My setting is as below:

<connector name="http" protocol="HTTP/1.1" scheme="http" socket-binding="http" max-connections="200">

<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:threads:1.1"/>

What is the max threads allocated for the http connector?

It is what you specified in the max-connections. So it will be 200. When you get over the limit, you will get a message like this:

19:10:41,751 INFO  [org.apache.tomcat.util.net.JIoEndpoint] (http--127.0.0.1-8080-Acceptor-0) Maximum number of threads (200) created for connector with address /127.0.0.1 and port 8080

You can test these things with apache benchmark tool (http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/programs/ab.html) or any other similar load driver tool.

If you want more control over the threads, use the threading subsystem as explained in the post above (https://community.jboss.org/message/775298#775298).

If  i place this in my standalone.xml I get an error when starting the server.  Does this need to go under a particular place in standalone.xml? under a subsystem perhaps?  I really just want to increase the connectionTimeout from, what i believe is the defaul,t 60 seconds to 120 seconds.  Would you happen know how to do this?

What you posted is pre-AS 7 configuration which uses native configuration format (ie. of JBoss Web / Tomcat). See https://community.jboss.org/message/775021#775021 for how to do this on AS7.
