47 Allow 10 seconds to receive the request including the headers and
48 30 seconds for receiving the request body:
50 <div class="example"><p><code>
51 RequestReadTimeout header=10 body=30
56 Allow at least 10 seconds to receive the request body.
57 If the client sends data, increase the timeout by 1 second for every
58 1000 bytes received, with no upper limit for the timeout (exept for
59 the limit given indirectly by
60 <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#limitrequestbody">LimitRequestBody</a></code>):

69 If the client sends data, increase the timeout by 1 second for every
70 500 bytes received. But do not allow more than 30 seconds for the
71 request including the headers:

94 <p>This directive can set various timeouts for receiving the request headers
95 and the request body from the client. If the client fails to send headers or
96 body within the configured time, a <code>408 REQUEST TIME OUT</code> error
99 <p>For SSL virtual hosts, the header timeout values include the time needed
100 to do the initial SSL handshake. The body timeout values include the time
101 needed for SSL renegotiation (if necessary).</p>
103 <p>When an <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#acceptfilter">AcceptFilter</a></code> is in use
104 (usually the case on Linux and FreeBSD), the socket is not sent to the
105 server process before at least one byte (or the whole request for
106 <code>httpready</code>) is received. The header timeout configured with
107 <code>RequestReadTimeout</code> is only effective after the server process has
108 received the socket.</p>
110 <p>For each of the two timeout types (header or body), there are three ways
111 to specify the timeout:
116 <li><strong>Fixed timeout value</strong>:<br />
118 <div class="example"><p><code><var>type</var>=<var>timeout</var></code></p></div>
120 <p>The time in seconds allowed for reading all of the request headers or
121 body, respectively. A value of 0 means no limit.</p>
124 <li><strong>Timeout value that is increased when data is
125 received</strong>:<br />
126 <div class="example"><p><code>
127 <var>type</var>=<var>timeout</var>,MinRate=<var>data_rate</var>
130 <p>Same as above, but whenever data is received, the timeout value is
131 increased according to the specified minimum data rate (in bytes per
135 <li><strong>Timeout value that is increased when data is received, with an
136 upper bound</strong>:<br />
137 <div class="example"><p><code>
138 <var>type</var>=<var>timeout</var>-<var>maxtimeout</var>,MinRate=<var>data_rate</var>
141 <p>Same as above, but the timeout will not be increased above the second
142 value of the specified timeout range.</p>
