[opencms-dev] Once again the authentication

[mfoley5 at csc.com.au]

Hi Thomas,

Regarding your problems with uploading large files - we are using Oracle
and the modified GenericSql interface (see 5.0 beta) and can upload large
files (e.g. the Solaris JDK at 40 MB), the only issue being the memory
usage on the server.  We found that for our 40 MB file we needed to start
WebLogic with the  "-mx320m" option.  That is quite excessive in my
opinion!

Regards,

Mark Foley

Hello Kai,

i can only say, that i´ve the same problem in a very
different configuration. I think, that the false
header 200 (OK) is sent, instead of 401.

I already spoke with alex kandzior about, and he wants to analyse it.
But i don´t know, who is the owner of this part of opencms.
I hope too, that somebody will fix this maybe little bug.


Andere Frage in deutsch, weils schneller geht.
Ihr habt geschrieben, Oracle einzusetzen. Wie sind eure Erfahrung
damit. Ich denke, es gibt wesentlich mehr Installationen mit MySQL und
damit auch mehr Referenzinstallationen bei Problemen.
Wir möchten eigentlich auch Oracle einsetzen, aber nach man irgendwann
feststellte, dass es Probleme mit dem News Modul und reservierten
Oracle Wörtern bei den Spaltenbezeichnungen gibt, dachte ich mir
soviele Installationen kann es ja da nicht geben.
Was meint Ihr?
Habt Ihr unter Oracle auch die Probleme beim Hochladen von größeren
Files, sagen wir mal > 20 MB, oder ist das nur ein MySQL Problem.

Grüsse,
Thomas
