Stacktrace

On deploying a WAR in Tomcat:

org.apache.tomcat.util.http.fileupload.FileUploadBase$SizeLimitExceededException: the request was rejected because its size (128938160) exceeds the configured maximum (52428800)

Quick fix

Edit the file $CATALINA_HOME/webapps/manager/WEB-INF/web.xml
Replace the block

  <multipart-config>
       <!-- 50MB max -->
        <max-file-size>52428800</max-file-size>
       <max-request-size>52428800</max-request-size>
        <file-size-threshold>0</file-size-threshold>
      </multipart-config>      

with:

  <multipart-config>
       <!-- 200 MB max -->
        <max-file-size>209715200</max-file-size>
       <max-request-size>209715200</max-request-size>
        <file-size-threshold>0</file-size-threshold>
      </multipart-config>
