2) Questions and Answers : Wish list : Smaller Transmission Packets or Alternative Methods to send results (Message 36498) Posted 27 Mar 2009 by old_user4147 Post: I have a similar problem and have worked out what the cause of the HTTP error failure is, well at least in my case. In my situation all internet connectivity is via a Squid Proxy server which has limits on the size of HTTP upload requests, this limit is currently set to 15 MB. All the CPDN trickle traffic works fine but when the final upload occurs it gets dropped immediately as the overall HTTP request (either HTTP PUT or POST) body size is > than the Squid request_body_max_size limit. I would also really love to see a way for the final data to be uploaded in definable chunks, e.g. per meg settings, to get around this problem. As the CPDN tasks have got bigger I have not been able to successfully upload results lately either and will also have to look at dropping out.
