Environment
Novell Filr 1.1
Situation
When using the file upload applet to upload large files/folders, the upload fails with the following error in the Java console:
handleResponse saw Exception:java.net.HttpRetryException: cannot retry due to redirection, in streaming mode
handleResponse saw Exception:java.net.HttpRetryException: cannot retry due to redirection, in streaming mode
Resolution
A fix for this issue is available in the Filr 1.1 Hot Patch 2, available via the Novell Patch Finder. With the fix in place, file/folder uploads via the applet will complete without error using the chunked mode.
Cause
Applet was falling back to streaming mode instead of chunking.
