Description

If a request contains headers that exceed the buffer size (4096), the request fails with the following exception:

WARN log handle failed
java.io.IOException: FULL
at org.mortbay.jetty.HttpParser.parseNext(HttpParser.java:274)
at org.mortbay.jetty.HttpParser.parseAvailable(HttpParser.java:202)
at org.mortbay.jetty.HttpConnection.handle(HttpConnection.java:378)
at org.mortbay.io.nio.SelectChannelEndPoint.run(SelectChannelEndPoint.java:368)
at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.runTask(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:885)
at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:907)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:619)

In this case, the request had a very large cookie (3740 bytes). The entire header was 4296 bytes.
