HTTP 413 error

Hi everyone,

I have a specific problem and I want to know if you already see that and if you have a solution.

I need to do HTTP POST on a reverse proxy. But I have sometimes the following return : 413 Request Entity Too Large

All works fine directly on the serveur. But when I do the HTTP POST on the URL (so the traffic pass by the F5 BIG IP), I have the HTTP error.

The file does 10Mo.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Best regards,

Agathe

Hi,

ASM is installed but not used.

There is not a lot of thing about the configuration. The BIG IP is used as a reverse proxy. I don't touch a lot to the configuration of profil (http profil, ssl client/server profile,...). I try to double the SSL buffer size but no change.

Thanks.

Agathe

  Dear Agathe,
  
  I am also facing the same issue, that your experienced. When doing HTTP post, one of my web application throwing an error : "Request Entity Too Large". Without BIG IP WAF web application working fine, I have already done lot of work around, but no result.
  
  I hope your issue resolved, could you please help me out for this issue??

Do you have ASM configured? Anything else you can supply about your configuration?
