| Attribute | Description |
|---|
allowTrace |
A boolean value which can be used to enable or disable the TRACE
HTTP method. If not specified, this attribute is set to false.
|
emptySessionPath |
If set to true, all paths for session cookies will be set
to /. This can be useful for portlet specification implementations.
If not specified, this attribute is set to false.
A side effect to setting this to true, is that if Tomcat creates a new session it will attempt to use the
cookie session id if supplied by the client.

enableLookups |
Set to true if you want calls to
request.getRemoteHost() to perform DNS lookups in
order to return the actual host name of the remote client. Set
to false to skip the DNS lookup and return the IP
address in String form instead (thereby improving performance).
By default, DNS lookups are disabled.
|
maxHeaderCount |
The maximum number of headers in a request that are allowed by the
container. A request that contains more headers than the specified limit
will be rejected. A value of less than 0 means no limit.
If not specified, a default of 100 is used.
|
maxParameterCount |
The maximum number of parameters (GET plus POST) which will be
automatically parsed by the container. A value of less than 0 means no
limit. If not specified, a default of 10000 is used. Note that
FailedRequestFilter filter can be
used to reject requests that hit the limit.
|
maxPostSize |
The maximum size in bytes of the POST which will be handled by
the container FORM URL parameter parsing. The limit can be disabled by
setting this attribute to a value less than or equal to 0.
If not specified, this attribute is set to 2097152 (2 megabytes).
|
maxSavePostSize |
The maximum size in bytes of the POST which will be saved/buffered by
the container during FORM or CLIENT-CERT authentication. For both types
of authentication, the POST will be saved/buffered before the user is
authenticated. For CLIENT-CERT authentication, the POST is buffered for
the duration of the SSL handshake and the buffer emptied when the request
is processed. For FORM authentication the POST is saved whilst the user
is re-directed to the login form and is retained until the user
successfully authenticates or the session associated with the
authentication request expires. The limit can be disabled by setting this
attribute to -1. Setting the attribute to zero will disable the saving of
POST data during authentication. If not specified, this attribute is set
to 4096 (4 kilobytes).
|
parseBodyMethods |
A comma-separated list of HTTP methods for which request
bodies will be parsed for request parameters identically
to POST. This is useful in RESTful applications that want to
support POST-style semantics for PUT requests.
Note that any setting other than POST causes Tomcat
to behave in a way that does against the intent of the servlet
specification.
The HTTP method TRACE is specifically forbidden here in accordance
with the HTTP specification.
The default is POST
|
port |
The TCP port number on which this Connector
will create a server socket and await incoming connections. Your
operating system will allow only one server application to listen
to a particular port number on a particular IP address. If the special
value of 0 (zero) is used, then Tomcat will select a free port at random
to use for this connector. This is typically only useful in embedded and
testing applications.
|
protocol |
Sets the protocol to handle incoming traffic.
The default value is HTTP/1.1 and configures the
org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol. This is the blocking Java connector.
If the PATH (Windows) or LD_LIBRARY_PATH (on most unix systems)
environment variables contain the Tomcat native library, the APR connector
will automatically be configured. Please be advised that the APR connector has different
settings for HTTPS than the default Java connector.
Other values for this attribute are, but not limited to:
org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol - same as HTTP/1.1
org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol - non blocking Java connector
org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11AprProtocol - the APR connector.
Take a look at our Connector Comparison chart.
The configuration for both Java connectors are identical, both for http and https.
For more information on the APR connector and APR specific SSL settings please

proxyName |
If this Connector is being used in a proxy
configuration, configure this attribute to specify the server name
to be returned for calls to request.getServerName().
See Proxy Support for more
information.
|
proxyPort |
If this Connector is being used in a proxy
configuration, configure this attribute to specify the server port
to be returned for calls to request.getServerPort().
See Proxy Support for more
information.
|
redirectPort |
If this Connector is supporting non-SR There are currently two user database, the
org.apache.catalina.startup.PasswdUserDatabase is used on a
Unix system that uses the /etc/passwd file to identify valid users.
The org.apache.catalina.startup.HomesUserDatabase is used on
a server where /etc/passwd is not in use. HomesUserDatabase deploy all
directories found in a specified base directory.
|
homeBase |
The base directory containing user home directories.This is effective
only when org.apache.catalina.startup.HomesUserDatabase is
used.
