Topic: Error 414 in Apache 2.2.11 on Windows Vista

[emulman]

i have installed your Apache 2.2.11 on my Windows Vista Ultimate 32 bit with MySQL 5.1.31 and PHP 5.2.8. All work perfectly, only when i must fill an html form i muste send a lot of data: when i send these data there is the error 414 , URI TOO LONG ERROR, i.e. the data sended by the form exceede the limit of 8190 bytes as in httpd.conf.
I have tried to insert the option LimitFieldSize to 8192 but nothing: seemed that there is an internal variable, MAXBUF, set to 1204 bytes during compilation.
There is a version of Apache 2.2.11 this the value of MAXBUF set to 8192, or can you compile and post it, please? thanks!

My first instinct tells me to ask the question, why are you sending that large a form along the URI to begin with? Why are you using GET instead of POST? My next was to check the RFC for http 1.1, nothing there.

That said,

LimitRequestBody 0
LimitRequestLine 2147483647

2147483647 = 2GB which very well may be a limit
I doubt you need 2GB ... so adjust as needed.

I was able to send the text of the entire RFC 2616 (HTTP 1.1) { http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2616 } in a form with this setting.

in fact is very strange..yes, i use POST and in a little PHP script i have inserted a row with

echo count($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])

which give me a 3508 bytes...but now i have another surprise! when i send the data form and i click on a submit button which passes to the same page four parameters, when the page is reloaded instead of , for example

http://wwww.xxxx.com/page.php?id=2&num=5&raced=41

appears a long URI with all the data form, like

http://wwww.xxxx.com/page.php?pos_0=1&number_0=1&name_1=zzzzz&car_1=yyyyyy ecc ecc

so appears a long URI which breaks my web app! how it's possible???
