Description

@amalpotra
  • I have searched the issues of this repository and believe that this is not a duplicate.

Environment

  • Arthas version: 4.0.5
  • Operating System version: Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
  • Java version of target JVM: 21.0.7
  • Java version of JVM used to attach: 21.0.7

Preconditions / Setup

  1. Arthas is attached to the application as a Java agent and connected to the tunnel-server.
  2. The Arthas Web Console is used to start JFR profiling of the application.
  3. After profiling finishes, the generated recording is listed under Outputs.

Steps to reproduce this issue

  1. In the Web Console, click Download for a recording whose size exceeds 10 MB.
  2. Observe the downloaded file.

Expected Result

The full .jfr file is downloaded intact, regardless of size.

Actual Result

• Recordings ≤ 10 MB download correctly.
• Recordings > 10 MB download as a small file that contains only the text:

error

Here are the suspected areas:

  1. httpResponse.setContent("error".getBytes("utf-8"));
  2. public static final int MAX_HTTP_CONTENT_LENGTH = 1024 * 1024 * 10;

Questions

  1. Is the 10 MB ceiling intentional/expected?
  2. If intentional, is there a recommended work-around to download JFR files larger than 10 MB via tunnel-server for those with no direct access to production system other than the web-console?

Thanks for your help!
