    Description

      1: I am getting java.lang.OutOfMemoryError when the form in my jsp code is as below.
      <html:form action="/actnMpng" enctype="multipart/form-data" method ="post" >

      • JSP code ? containing very huge data (hidden parameters) with file upload attachment facility (<html:file/>).

      </html:form>

      This is throwing OutOfMemoryError eventhough I am not attaching/uploading any files.
      I have more than 1000 hidden fields in this jsp.
      When i check the used memory in my action class, i came to know that nearly 200 MB memory is utilizing on each action submit from this jsp (i have more actions / buttons in this form in different tabs).

      2:*** The same data is getting posted successfully if the form is submitted with out
      enctype="multipart/form-data" and without providing the attachment facility. (by removing <html:file/> tags)

      3: I am facing this problem only when my form is containing more hidden parameters to post.
      Where as when my form is containg less fields (which are dynamic), then i am not facing this problem eventhough my form is with enctype="multipart/form-data"

      Please find the below log generated in Tomcat.
