Root Cause

The incoming HTTP request body exceeds the server's maximum allowed size, often due to missing MaxBytesReader or server configuration.

generic

中文

传入的HTTP请求体超过服务器允许的最大大小,通常是由于缺少MaxBytesReader或服务器配置所致。

Workarounds

  1. 95% success
    r.Body = http.MaxBytesReader(w, r.Body, 10<<20) // 10 MB limit
  2. 80% success
    if r.ContentLength > maxSize {
        http.Error(w, "Request body too large", http.StatusRequestEntityTooLarge)
        return
    }

Dead Ends

Common approaches that don't work:

  1. 90% fail

    ReadBufferSize is not related to body size limits and will not prevent the error.

  2. 50% fail

    Simply increasing the limit may allow denial-of-service attacks.
