Problem summary

****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application Server
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Proxy server does not accept an         *
*                      "UNLIMITED" value for http.log.maxSize  *
*                      custom property.                        *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
The proxy custom property parser does not interpret the
"UNLIMITED" value correctly. And when creating the log file,
the parser assigns an incorrect value to the max log file size.

Problem conclusion

With this the fix, the proxy custom property parser is
corrected, and it passes a valid value in the proxy log when
"UNLIMITED" value is used. Note: Due to a V6.1 limitation, the
hard limit for proxy log file size is 2 G even if the
"UNLIMITED" value is specified for the "http.log.maxSize"
custom property.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fix packs 6.1.0.25 and 7.0.0.5.  Please refer to the
