FileUploadBase$SizeLimitExceededException apache tomcat

Question

Im trying to upload file from a JSP file and I get the following error in catalina.out. As specified in many blogs, I increased the the max-file-size under webapps/manager/WEB-

Answer 1

This is configured in web.xml for the manager app.

Ex:

  
    HTMLManager
    org.apache.catalina.manager.HTMLManagerServlet
    
      debug
      2
    
    
      
      52428800
      52428800
      0

The manager app uses the Servlet 3.0 API. If you're using commons file upload directly, it's up to you and you need to configure this manually.
