Possibility to set Request Size (Dapr: --http-max-request-size flag)

[XavierGeerinck]

Is there a way to set the --http-max-request-size flag? I got an app and am sadly enough triggering the body too large error

[kendallroden]

We are investigating and will report back

[sergiibielskyi]

Hey. Any updates on it?

[sergiibielskyi]

I think it would be great to add this option/parameter as annotation to dapr settings
dapr: {
enabled: true
appPort: 80
appId: 'daprapp'
http-max-request-size: 16
}

[XavierGeerinck]

Any update on this? I am missing it as well for a production app (always receiving ('Connection aborted.', ConnectionResetError(104, 'Connection reset by peer')) now)

[XavierGeerinck]

This is what I am seeing, which is preventing my production workload from working correctly :( sadly enough I can't compress images below 4 Mb

@kendallroden any update?

Any updates? We are blocked from moving forward until this flag becomes available.

This feature is also crucial for me to move forward with container apps. The 4MB limit is very restricting.

[kendallroden]

Thanks for letting us know I am checking with engineering

Any updates?

It seems that this gives the appearance of being supported via cli (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cli/azure/containerapp/dapr?view=azure-cli-latest#az-containerapp-dapr-enable):

az containerapp dapr enable --dapr-http-max-request-size 32

when i run this command the output seems to indicate success:

{
"appId": "api",
"appPort": 80,
"appProtocol": "http",
"enableApiLogging": false,
"enabled": true,
"httpMaxRequestSize": 32,
"logLevel": "info"
}

However, these values are not in the azure portal (see attachment).

Also, when i look at the JSON for the container app overview in the portal, I only see:

"dapr": {
"enabled": true,
"appId": "api",
"appProtocol": "http",
"appPort": 80
}

I will add that the dapr error for this is not properly surfaced in the logs.

Container apps log the following error:
System.Net.Http.HttpRequestException: An error occurred while sending the request.
2022-09-21T12:26:38.938415931Z ---> System.IO.IOException: The response ended prematurely.

while debugging locally, i see the more helpful dapr error:
Dapr.DaprApiException: error invoke actor method: body size exceeds the given limit

[sergiibielskyi]

it works if you change the extension by using the command like this one
az containerapp dapr enable -n containerapp -g "$NAME_RG" --dapr-app-id daprId --dapr-http-max-request-size 16

[dale-personal]

That essentially is the command i am running:
az containerapp dapr enable -n $name -g $resourceGroup --dapr-app-id api --dapr-app-port 80 --dapr-app-protocol http --dapr-http-max-request-size 32

It shows up in the json settings if you change the API version to 2022-06-01-preview but it does not have an effect on the container - I still receive the error message with requests larger than 4MB.

Presumably because this is in the API preview and not actually implemented in the deployed containers yet?

[sergiibielskyi]

that works if you use the right template (not a preview one). Just tested on my container apps.

[dale-personal]

Can you elaborate a bit on what you mean by "right template"?

Here is what i am using:
resource api 'Microsoft.App/containerApps@2022-03-01' = { ...

This is not working (for me at least). perhaps i will try setting this to @2022-06-01-preview and see if that works.

[kendallroden]

The feature is rolling out across CLI and portal hence why they are not in line yet

closing due to availability
