Hello,

We are experancing a very strange issue with some of our handsets when users try to access an internal SAP website.

The website is a fairly basic site with a banner and some basic text.

I am able to access the site fine on a 8310, 9700, 9800 but not able to do it from a 9105 or a 9300

At first I though it was a config error but have been through the devices and checked that they were all set to the same;

Browser set to BlackBerry Browser
Support JavaScript - enabled
Allow JavaScript pop-ups - disabled
Terminate slow-running scripts - enabeld
show images - enabled
use background images - enabled
support embedded media - enabled
Browser identification - Internet Explorer

So I am wondering if it is someting to do with the devieces physical screen size and resoultion as the ones that work has a higher quality of screen?

Any ideas?

Cheers,

Graham

The error is:

HTTP 413 Request Entity too Large

I would check in the Web Server logs if you can find more details on when this error happens. Also make sure that on the faulty devices you are on the latest OS (and with that, on the latest browser).

Hello freakinvibe,

Many thanks for your reply.

I have asked the SAP guys to have a look and see if ther are any logs on the SAP server. They have also asked if the BES might have any logs?

My first point of call was to flash the OS to the latest availabule through BBF but that didnt make any difference.

What do you mean by Latest Browser? is that a seperate installation to the OS upgarde?

Will see if there is any info back from the SAP guys.

Any other thoughs?

Sure, have a look at the MDAT logs in the log directory.
No, that is included in the OS upgrade. There is no separate browser update.

this sounds familiar

check your "Flow control" under the MDSCS instances general tab
Maximum data amount permitted per connection (KB)

the entity to large i think has to do with the size of the HTML file
(i could be wrong but last year i had to fix this on the server i took over and i think that was the message i was recieving on the BB's.
i believe the max setting is 1024kb

Hello freakinvibe and skeptik,

many thanks for the help you gave me.

The SAP team fixed the issue by re-engineering the website to be as basic as possibule and this has corrected the issue.

However i have also chagned the flowcontrol so might help in the future.

Cheers,

Hey grahambird80, rework on SAP side is a workaround. The fix to your issue is to increase the BES MDS-CS Maximum KB/Connection field value. Check out KB17318 below.

Link: KB17318-"HTTP error 413 request entity too large" appears when the BlackBerry Browser is used to browse to a web page
