发布数据长度超过8K时，php无法接收来自C＃webrequest的请求

Question

I am trying to send base64 encoded data through C# WebRequest to php script. Then I receive sent data by file_get_contents("php://input") , when data length is lower than 8 KBs the php code is executed, otherwise it can't be executed. In the other hand php didn't receive the request.

the code C#:

            WebRequest request = WebRequest.Create(url);
            request.Method = "POST";
            // postData is Base64_encoded
            byte[] byteArray = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(postData); 

            request.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
            request.ContentLength = byteArray.Length;

            Stream dataStream = request.GetRequestStream();
            dataStream.Write(byteArray, 0, byteArray.Length);
            dataStream.Close();

            WebResponse response = request.GetResponse();
            dataStream = response.GetResponseStream();
            StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(dataStream);
            string responseData = reader.ReadToEnd();
            responseData = SecurityUtils.DecryptUrlData(responseData);
            reader.Close();
            dataStream.Close();
            response.Close();
            return responseData;

Could any one help?

Answer 1

The below is incorrect (mea culpa). You cannot use enctype=multipart/form-data with php://input. See here

Perhaps you can post your PHP code into your question as well?

Make sure that when you POST from the c# app to your PHP app that you set the enctype to multipart/form-data.

Explanaition

Are you using application/x-www-form-urlencoded or multipart/form-data? There is a good explanation of the differenes here: application/x-www-form-urlencoded or multipart/form-data?

According to the link above, posting data in the application/x-form-urlencoded format will put the body into the URL. Many servers and languages (PHP, Apache) will cut off or throw errors when the URL is greater than 8K. See SO question: What is the maximum length for a URL?

1. Change the content type for the request

   request.ContentType = "text/plain";

2. Check out php.ini´s post_max_size on the server side
