POST请求数据，出现Post too large...错误

1.问题场景

java web开发当中，使用apache tomcat作为服务器，使用POST请求数据时，可能会出现：Post too large...的情况，错误信息：Parameters were not parsed because the size of the posted data was too big. Use the maxPostSize attribute of the connector to resolve this if the application should accept large POSTs.

2.问题原因

Q: In Tomcat, I got a "Post data too big" error.

A: Apache Tomcat by default sets a limit on the maximum size of HTTP POST requests it accepts.
   In Tomcat 5, this limit is set to 2097152 (2 Mb). When you try to upload files or post forms that are
   larger than 2 MB, this error can occur.
