Hello all, I'm currently running into a problem with Pound 2.4.

It looks like it's rejecting a cookie, but trying to put the request
through anyway.  The content of the cookie is large, but Pound 1.8
didn't seem to have a problem with it (it's been working for about 2
years now, or longer).

I was wondering what the new size limit is in 2.4, and if I had to, how
can I increase it in the source?

Basically, what I see in /var/log/messages is the contents of the cookie
with an error that says "line too long."

Thank you.

--Alfonso

As a follow-up, I do NOT have the MaxRequest directive specified in the
config file, and according to the man page, it's supposed to be
unlimited.

Alfonso, this thing bit me not too long ago.  Increase the size of (I think)
the MAXBUF or MAXBUFFERS -- I don't have the code in front of me, it's
something like that -- in (I think)  pound.h , to a value larger that the size
of your largest cookie, and recompile.

Hi,

i checkup the source code from pound 2.3 and hope there are no 
diffrences to 2.4. A single http header like cookie can be max 2048 Byte.
The MAXBUF directive is defined in pound.h line 259. Maybe this is a 
hint for you.

best regards,
axel

Hello Axel, that did the trick.  It does appear that the MAXBUF in 2.4 went
down though, the source code that I modified had MAXBUF defined as 1024.  I
changed it to 2048 (apparently what it was in 2.3) and the application that was
breaking, now works!

Thank you very much for the tip, maybe someone else can answer why it went down
to 1K, from what I had read online before, max cookie sizes can be up to 4K.  

--Alfonso
