cb7d9035e080e6838f657dc10bdd5e26df08273ajsl If the client sends data, increase the timeout by 1 second for every

cb7d9035e080e6838f657dc10bdd5e26df08273ajsl Usually, a server should have both header and body timeouts configured.
43a906741e1d11f0f1d0c189d1b55eafbcc21d14noodl If a common configuration is used for http and https virtual hosts, the

cb7d9035e080e6838f657dc10bdd5e26df08273ajsl <p>This directive can set various timeouts for receiving the request headers
cb7d9035e080e6838f657dc10bdd5e26df08273ajsl and the request body from the client. If the client fails to send headers or
cb7d9035e080e6838f657dc10bdd5e26df08273ajsl body within the configured time, a <code>408 REQUEST TIME OUT</code> error
cb7d9035e080e6838f657dc10bdd5e26df08273ajsl is sent.</p>
cb7d9035e080e6838f657dc10bdd5e26df08273ajsl <p>For SSL virtual hosts, the header timeout values include the time needed
cb7d9035e080e6838f657dc10bdd5e26df08273ajsl to do the initial SSL handshake. If the user's browser is configured to
cb7d9035e080e6838f657dc10bdd5e26df08273ajsl query certificate revocation lists and the CRL server is not reachable, the
cb7d9035e080e6838f657dc10bdd5e26df08273ajsl initial SSL handshake may take a significant time until the browser gives up
43a906741e1d11f0f1d0c189d1b55eafbcc21d14noodl waiting for the CRL. Therefore the header timeout values should not be set
43a906741e1d11f0f1d0c189d1b55eafbcc21d14noodl to very low values for SSL virtual hosts.
43a906741e1d11f0f1d0c189d1b55eafbcc21d14noodl The body timeout values include the time needed for SSL renegotiation
43a906741e1d11f0f1d0c189d1b55eafbcc21d14noodl (if necessary).</p>
43a906741e1d11f0f1d0c189d1b55eafbcc21d14noodl <p>When an <code class="directive"><a href="/mod/core.html#acceptfilter">AcceptFilter</a></code> is in use
19e58a269fe969b87c28465ee4914f3ae637e264jim (usually the case on Linux and FreeBSD), the socket is not sent to the
43a906741e1d11f0f1d0c189d1b55eafbcc21d14noodl server process before at least one byte (or the whole request for
43a906741e1d11f0f1d0c189d1b55eafbcc21d14noodl <code>httpready</code>) is received. The header timeout configured with
43a906741e1d11f0f1d0c189d1b55eafbcc21d14noodl <code>RequestReadTimeout</code> is only effective after the server process has
cb7d9035e080e6838f657dc10bdd5e26df08273ajsl received the socket.</p>
73ba54c33b4fcad0e13005e10ea8648c9fe4265bnd <p>For each of the two timeout types (header or body), there are three ways
3b3b7fc78d1f5bfc2769903375050048ff41ff26nd to specify the timeout:
