IllegalStateException: Post too large

From: <glassfish_at_javadesktop.org>

Using:
Sun Java System Application Server 9.1 (build b33)
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-b105)

I have a form that contains many fields of them one maps to a CLOB object which can be very
large, why is there cutoff size for a POST request? Is there a way to change this? I've checked
the Admin Guide but cannot seem to find any references to this. Any help would be much
appreciated, this problem occurred in our production environment so it is a pressing issue here.

Thanks,
