Hello,

I have a request with 4325 characters, and am getting a 414-client sent too long URI while reading client request line error.

I have this in my server config:
client_header_buffer_size 8k;
large_client_header_buffers 4 8k;

It seems odd that it would not support 4325 characters (yes it's a little long, but would be nice if it may work).

Anyone have any suggestions?

It seems that ought to be adequate.

If it were me I would try:

large_client_header_buffers 8 16K;

If it works then gradually reduce the settings until you get the 414's again, so you will know the minimum needed.

Thanks Jim.

The documentation says 4 buffers of 4k or 8k. Can it support more buffers and more memory for each buffer, such as 16k and higher, if needed?

Those are the default settings. You are able to modify those. In one app that I run I use:

[code]
client_header_buffer_size 2k;
large_client_header_buffers 8 12k;
[/code]

That's what I need as I also have very large requests.

Jim,

Thanks a lot... I'll give it a run.

This worked beautifully...
