SEEK

Recently I tried (a few times) to upload a large "run-kar" from the Workflow Run Manager in Kepler to the KeplerDev metacat, but get the following stacktrace from Kepler. The kar tpc03-veld-condition-woody-run1.kar, is ~1M, and the karXml (the metadata) is ~1.9M. The run kar is created by running the following workflow once, and then clicking on the run row in the WRM and selecting upload:
https://code.ecoinformatics.org/code/kruger/trunk/workflows/tpc03-veld-condition/tpc03-veld-condition-woody.kar

Uploading smaller run-kars works.
Jing and I took a look at catalina.out on dev and see the following associated errors to do with 'Post too large':
