正确设置 Apache2 以避免使用 Microsoft OneDrive 上传超时

Question

I have a simple Perl script that uploads a file from an HTML form, and it does works. ie Uploads a file from my local Mac HD to my web server via a webpage.

What I have noticed, however, if I try to upload files from Microsoft's OneDrive I am more likely to get the following info below. I have no problems using my OneDrive via Mac's Finder, or my iPhone, etc.

access.log

[14/Feb/2022:23:36:51 -0500] "POST /cgi-bin/upload2.pl HTTP/1.1" 408 487 "http://example.com/" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/15.2 Safari/605.1.15"

error.log

[Mon Feb 14 23:37:02.121496 2022] [cgi:error] [pid 3734:tid 140367391328000] (70007)The timeout specified has expired: [client -.-.-.-:58184] AH01225: Error reading request entity data, referer: http://example.com/

My Apache2 settings are:

Timeout 300
KeepAlive On
MaxKeepAliveRequests 100
KeepAliveTimeout 5

At my slim level of knowledge of Apache, I am assuming that my problem is all about timing. If that's the case, can I change settings above to help? Or am I off base?

*One small thing I noticed, but I don't know if it means anything

My web browser says:

Server timeout waiting for the HTTP request from the client. and it mentions port 80.

However, in the error.log it mentions port 58184. I don't know if that's normal, due to routers, other routine behavior.

Answer 1

Set KeepAlive to Off - it seems to have a detrimental effect with busy Apache servers.
