Forum OpenACS Q&A: Ask about the max size of form variable

1: Ask about the max size of form variable

Posted by Yeung Heunry on 10/07/02 01:43 PM

Hi all,
Due to business, I need to email/spam a huge article to others by
web. So, I build a form for input the article. But during running,
the error from AOLserver is
Warning: conn: post size 71152 exceeds maxpost limit of 65536
Is that there are limit size in form variable ? Can I enlarge the
size by varying the parameter of AOLserver/OpenACS ?
My setting is :
RH Linux 7.2
AOLserver 3.3 +ad13
OpenACS 3.5
Postgres 7.1.2 (UNICODE)
Hope have people can solve the problem, thx a lot.
