The error "Corrupt form data: premature ending" appears in the cfserver.log
when a form is submitted with a file (to be uploaded to the server) from a form
using ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" and the error occurs while using https and
ONLY in IE. Firefox, Safari, etc. are not experiencing the problem. The user
experiences either an immediate "500 Internal Server Error" response or a long
lag before receiving the 500 error.
I've seen numerous posts about this issue (Macromedia Forums, Google
groups, etc.), but little on the cause or the solution. There was one
very informative post about changing some IIS settings for a guy
running CFMX6.1, but since we are running Red Hat Linux and ColdFusion
MX 7, it wasn?t really applicable. Additionally, we never had this
problem in MX6.1. It began with our recent upgrade to MX7.
Thanks in advance.
