<p>The <strong>HTTP Connector</strong> element represents a
<strong>Connector</strong> component that supports the HTTP/1.1 protocol.
It enables Catalina to function as a stand-alone web server, in addition
to its ability to execute servlets and JSP pages. A particular instance
of this component listens for connections on a specific TCP port number
on the server. One or more such <strong>Connectors</strong> can be
configured as part of a single <a href="service.html">Service</a>, each
forwarding to the associated <a href="engine.html">Engine</a> to perform
request processing and create the response.</p>
<p>If you wish to configure the <strong>Connector</strong> that is used
for connections to web servers using the AJP protocol (such as the
<code>mod_jk 1.2.x</code> connector for Apache 1.3), please refer to the
<a href="ajp.html">AJP Connector</a> documentation.</p>
<p>Each incoming request requires
a thread for the duration of that request. If more simultaneous requests
are received than can be handled by the currently available request
processing threads, additional threads will be created up to the
configured maximum (the value of the <code>maxThreads</code> attribute).
If still more simultaneous requests are received, they are stacked up
inside the server socket created by the <strong>Connector</strong>, up to
the configured maximum (the value of the <code>acceptCount</code>
attribute). Any further simultaneous requests will receive "connection
refused" errors, until resources are available to process them.</p>

set for garbage collection after every request, otherwise they will be
reused. This setting has no effect when the security manager is enabled.

<p>The maximum number of headers in a request that are allowed by the

<p>The maximum number of parameter and value pairs (GET plus POST) which

the duration of the SSL handshake and the buffer emptied when the request

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

<p>A comma-separated list of HTTP methods for which request
bodies using <code>application/x-www-form-urlencoded</code> 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 <code>POST</code> causes Tomcat
to behave in a way that goes against the intent of the servlet
specification.
The HTTP method TRACE is specifically forbidden here in accordance
with the HTTP specification.
The default is <code>POST</code></p>
</td></tr><tr><td align="left" valign="center"><strong><code class="attributeName">port</code></strong></td><td align="left" valign="center">
<p>The TCP port number on which this <strong>Connector</strong>
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.</p>
</td></tr><tr><td align="left" valign="center"><code class="attributeName">protocol</code></td><td align="left" valign="center">
<p>Sets the protocol to handle incoming traffic. The default value is
<code>HTTP/1.1</code> which uses an auto-switching mechanism to select
either a blocking Java based connector or an APR/native based connector.
If the <code>PATH</code> (Windows) or <code>LD_LIBRARY_PATH</code> (on
most unix systems) environment variables contain the Tomcat native
library, the APR/native connector will be used. If the native library
cannot be found, the blocking Java based connector will be used. Note
that the APR/native connector has different settings for HTTPS than the
Java connectors.<br>
To use an explicit protocol rather than rely on the auto-switching
mechanism described above, the following values may be used:<br>
<code>org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol</code> -
blocking Java connector<br>
<code>org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol</code> -
non blocking Java connector<br>
<code>org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11AprProtocol</code> -
the APR/native connector.<br>
Custom implementations may also be used.<br>
Take a look at our <a href="#Connector_Comparison">Connector
Comparison</a> chart. The configuration for both Java connectors is
identical, for http and https.<br>

<p>The <strong>Connector</strong> may use HTTP/1.1 GZIP compression in
an attempt to save server bandwidth. The acceptable values for the
parameter is "off" (disable compression), "on" (allow compression, which
causes text data to be compressed), "force" (forces compression in all
cases), or a numerical integer value (which is equivalent to "on", but
specifies the minimum amount of data before the output is compressed). If
the content-length is not known and compression is set to "on" or more
aggressive, the output will also be compressed. If not specified, this

<p><em>Note</em>: There is a tradeoff between using compression (saving
your bandwidth) and using the sendfile feature (saving your CPU cycles).
If the connector supports the sendfile feature, e.g. the NIO connector,
using sendfile will take precedence over compression. The symptoms will
be that static files greater that 48 Kb will be sent uncompressed.
You can turn off sendfile by setting <code>useSendfile</code> attribute
of the connector, as documented below, or change the sendfile usage
threshold in the configuration of the
