[rt-users] Uploading big Files using CGI.pm

[Brian Houston/NCO/CEtv]

Greetings,

This may be more of a mod_perl or Mason question, but I'm not sure at this
point.

I am using cgi.pm to upload attachments when creating a ticket in RT.
Everything is fine unlesss I try to upload a file large than 1 MB.   This
generates an immediate server error and
on checking the Apache logs says 'Malformed Multipart Post'.

I've read messages about Mason and CGI.pm problems, and tried in Webmux.pl
to fix it by adding this line after the 'use CGI' line:

$CGI::POST_MAX=1024 * 100000;

I thought that this would likely do the trick, but no go.

Is it possible that RT is limiting the size, or adding some other config
variable somewhere that I'm missing?

 I'd appreciate any hints that anyone might have on this.


Thanks and cheers,

Brian Houston
