I have a download servlet in springboot-jsf application that is deployed on tomcat 9
and I am using nginx as web server
as follows :

@Controller
public class DownloadServlet {

    private static final Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(DownloadServlet.class);

    @Autowired
    private FileNetClient fileNetClient;

    @RequestMapping(value = "/downloadServlet")
    protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response)
            throws ServletException, IOException {
        OutputStream out = null;
        InputStream inputStream = null;
        String documentId = null;

        try {
            documentId = request.getParameter("id");
            if (StringUtils.isBlank(documentId))
                return;
            FileNetDocument fileNetDocument = fileNetClient.downloadDocument(documentId);
            String fileName = fileNetDocument.getFileName();
            fileName = URLEncoder.encode(fileName, "UTF-8");
            fileName = fileName.replaceAll("\+", " ");

            byte[] data = Base64.decodeBase64(fileNetDocument.getDataBase64Str());
            response.setContentType(fileNetDocument.getMimeType() + ";charset=UTF-8");
            response.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
            response.setHeader("Content-disposition", "attachment; filename=" + fileName);
            response.setContentLength(data.length);
            response.setHeader("Content-Length", String.valueOf(data.length));

            inputStream = new ByteArrayInputStream(data);
            out = response.getOutputStream();
            byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
            int length;
            while ((length = inputStream.read(buffer)) > 0) {
                out.write(buffer, 0, length);
            }
            out.flush();

        } catch (Exception e) {
            throw new IOException(e.getMessage());
        } finally {
            if (inputStream != null) {
                inputStream.close();
            }
            if (out != null)
                try {
                    out.close();
                } catch (IOException ex) {
                    ex.printStackTrace();
                }
        }
    }

}

sometimes i get the following exception although the file size is 1 mb:

is there is any timeout configuration that i have to increase in tomcat or nginx for this issue to be fixed ?

Answers

Well according to the Tomcat Documentation: https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-9.0-doc/config/http.html

You can use:

connectionTimeout

The number of milliseconds this Connector will wait, after accepting a connection, for the request URI line to be presented. Use a value of -1 to indicate no (i.e. infinite) timeout. The default value is 60000 (i.e. 60 seconds) but note that the standard server.xml that ships with Tomcat sets this to 20000 (i.e. 20 seconds). Unless disableUploadTimeout is set to false, this timeout will also be used when reading the request body (if any).

Example:

<Connector connectionTimeout="-1" ............. />

Please, consider review this Atlasian support article, I think it could be relevant to your problem as well.

Basically, these kind of exceptions are thrown when the connection with the client was aborted before the response is fully transferred, because the client closed or refreshed the browser window, a browser timeout, etcetera.

If it happens too frequently, it could be the symptom of an application performance or network problem: let’s say, the user refresh the page because the application is not serving the content in an appropriate amount of time; if not, it may be safely ignored.

As you mentioned you are using nginx to proxy your application and, as also stated in the aforementioned article, the way in which nginx close the connections could be related with the issue.

Try providing the following flag in the nginx configuration:
```
proxy_ignore_client_abort on;
```
As far as I understand, setting this flag on will cause nginx to monitor for possible client connection close while waiting for an upstream
server response, although it will not prevent errors raised while the response is actually being written. This nginx community article shed some light on how it works.

In your specific use case, as you are downloading a file, in addition to the previous suggestions, in your Servlet please be sure that you open the response OutputStream right before sending the information to the client and you have fully access to the information of the file that will be downloaded. In addition, please, try tweaking the response buffer size using for instance the ServletResponse setBufferSize method and provide a small value: probably it will decrease the overall response performance because more flushes will occur, but as the information is sent more quickly to the client, it may prevent errors like the one you are facing. Try finding a trade-off between performance and connection timeouts.
