To Increas the Default HTTP Header Size on the Brava Server

  1. Open SERVER.XML from the Tomcat installation directory, (default location is C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 9.0\conf).
  2. Find the <Connector Port="8080"> tag and change the values of maxHttpHeaderSize and maxPostSize as follows:
    <Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
          connectionTimeout="200000"
          redirectPort="8443" 
          asyncTimeout="600000" 
          maxHttpHeaderSize="65536" 
          maxPostSize="4194304"/>
Note: If <Connector Port="8080"> tag does not appear in SERVER.XML, you need to create it and change values of maxHttpHeaderSize and maxPostSize as described in this section.
