APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • When you use the IBM Business Process Manager (BPM) REST Tester
application, the cookie history grows as REST HTTP requests are
made. Because the cookie history is sent in the header, IBM BPM
environments with front-end proxy servers might fail the request
 because the header size exceeds the configured limit. You might
 see the following error message:
"Size of a request header field exceeds server limit."

Local fix

  • None available.

Problem summary

Problem conclusion

sends them through the request header.
