MAXTEMP (JANUS DEFINE parameter)

<section begin="desc" />MAXTEMP nnnn -- Max number of CCATEMP pages allowed in use on a Web connection<section end="desc" />

MAXTEMP is a parameter on JANUS DEFINE, which defines and sets characteristics of a Janus port. See the List of JANUS DEFINE parameters.

This parameter specifies the maximum number of CCATEMP pages allowed to be used by a web request for holding input (file upload) and output (dynamically generated HTML) data. A huge file upload request from a browser or a bug in a web server application can result in a web request exhausting CCATEMP in an Online. The MAXTEMP parameter ensures that no web application will use more than a specified number of CCATEMP pages.

The default for MAXTEMP is 100, which allows uploads of files up to 614,400 bytes long or generation of 614,400 bytes of dynamic HTML.

Static pages and binaries are not moved through CCATEMP so are not affected by this parameter. If there is a need to upload large files from a web browser or an application has a need to generate extremely large dynamic pages, specify a large MAXTEMP in the web port definition.

MAXTEMP is valid only for WEBSERV ports.
