SpringBoot Provide a configuration property for Tomcat's max HTTP response header size

Current behaviour concerning Tomcat max HTTP Header size:

In TomcatWebServerFactoryCustomizer it is only possible to set "maxHttpRequestHeaderSize".

server.maxHttpRequestHeaderSize = 5MB

Desired extension

In some cases, Response Headers are also higher that allowed by Tomcat but this property cannot be modified. It would be good to add this possibility also in spring configuration file.

server.maxHttpResponseHeaderSize = 5MB

Kind regards,

Hello @tazouxme

As seen in #29382, I don't think we can apply this at the "server.*" as this wouldn't be consistent for all servers at this point. We can consider introducing a Tomcat specific property.

In the meantime you can use a Tomcat server customizer to achieve this in your application.

Closing in favor of #33553.
