af4381d113faafc97340eaaa008840c7fcbcc8fdsf <p>This directive can set various timeouts for receiving the request headers
af4381d113faafc97340eaaa008840c7fcbcc8fdsf and the request body from the client. If the client fails to send headers or
af4381d113faafc97340eaaa008840c7fcbcc8fdsf body within the configured time, a <code>408 REQUEST TIME OUT</code> error
af4381d113faafc97340eaaa008840c7fcbcc8fdsf is sent.</p>
af4381d113faafc97340eaaa008840c7fcbcc8fdsf <p>For SSL virtual hosts, the header timeout values include the time needed
cb8646cb564e6b2f7b1580b01ba4fbfd26231253sf to do the initial SSL handshake. If the user's browser is configured to
cb8646cb564e6b2f7b1580b01ba4fbfd26231253sf query certificate revocation lists and the CRL server is not reachable, the
cb8646cb564e6b2f7b1580b01ba4fbfd26231253sf initial SSL handshake may take a significant time until the browser gives up
cb8646cb564e6b2f7b1580b01ba4fbfd26231253sf waiting for the CRL. Therefore the header timeout values should not be set
cb8646cb564e6b2f7b1580b01ba4fbfd26231253sf to very low values for SSL virtual hosts.
cb8646cb564e6b2f7b1580b01ba4fbfd26231253sf The body timeout values include the time needed for SSL renegotiation
cb8646cb564e6b2f7b1580b01ba4fbfd26231253sf (if necessary).</p>
af4381d113faafc97340eaaa008840c7fcbcc8fdsf <p>When an <code class="directive"><a href="/mod/core.html#acceptfilter">AcceptFilter</a></code> is in use
af4381d113faafc97340eaaa008840c7fcbcc8fdsf (usually the case on Linux and FreeBSD), the socket is not sent to the
af4381d113faafc97340eaaa008840c7fcbcc8fdsf server process before at least one byte (or the whole request for
af4381d113faafc97340eaaa008840c7fcbcc8fdsf <code>httpready</code>) is received. The header timeout configured with
efb3a31a4ca193ac8629a4c039d481c29171d6e0sf <code>RequestReadTimeout</code> is only effective after the server process has
af4381d113faafc97340eaaa008840c7fcbcc8fdsf received the socket.</p>
efb3a31a4ca193ac8629a4c039d481c29171d6e0sf <p>For each of the two timeout types (header or body), there are three ways
efb3a31a4ca193ac8629a4c039d481c29171d6e0sf to specify the timeout:
efb3a31a4ca193ac8629a4c039d481c29171d6e0sf <div class="example"><p><code><var>type</var>=<var>timeout</var></code></p></div>
efb3a31a4ca193ac8629a4c039d481c29171d6e0sf <p>The time in seconds allowed for reading all of the request headers or
efb3a31a4ca193ac8629a4c039d481c29171d6e0sf body, respectively. A value of 0 means no limit.</p>
16a0ba19b2cecf27e48c0c197ae1f3a96f447949sf <div class="example"><p><code>header=0 body=0</code></p></div>

efb3a31a4ca193ac8629a4c039d481c29171d6e0sf second).</p>
