[12:06:58 CST(-0600)] <dd_> hello

[12:07:12 CST(-0600)] <dd_> i am having a problem with webproxy portlet

[12:07:36 CST(-0600)] <dd_> i am using it with a php application that involves uploading a file

[12:07:55 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I don't believe web proxy can proxy form uploads

[12:08:03 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> well at least we've never used it that way

[12:09:40 CST(-0600)] <dd_> so it can't handle multipart forms?

[12:09:51 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I don't believe so

[12:10:04 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I don't think the logic is there to handle the streaming of the request to the backend server

[12:10:11 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> which would be required for it to work right

[12:10:24 CST(-0600)] <dd_> ah, ok

[12:10:25 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> it wouldn't really be reasonable for the portlet to buffer the entire post

[12:10:29 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> and then replay it

[12:10:36 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> and that is essentially what the portlet does with requests

[12:10:41 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> it handles the request

[12:10:48 CST(-0600)] <dd_> ok

[12:10:50 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> then replays it to the backend server

[12:11:01 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> it is likely feasible with a bunch of work in the proxy portlet codxe

[12:11:12 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> but I'd guess that it would be a few weeks of work

[12:11:40 CST(-0600)] <dd_> so is my only other option the iframe portlet?

[12:11:50 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> probably

[12:12:24 CST(-0600)] <dd_> does that have any of the cas authentication with it? would i still be able to use phpCAS?

[12:12:38 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> well it just renders an iframe

[12:12:41 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> if your portal is using cas

[12:12:45 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> and the php site is using cas

[12:12:50 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> it should sso the user

[12:12:59 CST(-0600)] <dd_> great
