Post not allowing full ‘max post length’

The discussion revolves around an issue with posting topics exceeding 4k characters, despite a configured maximum length of 99,000. pixopexu reports an error occurring in the pool and perspective, sharing console screenshots.

Falco suggests the problem might be due to a reverse proxy misconfiguration, noting that the forum doesn’t listen on port 80. pixopexu later identifies the Perspective plug-in as the cause of the error and resolves the issue by disabling it.

Falco reiterates the port 80 configuration issue, providing a curl command demonstrating the failed connection. pixopexu thanks Falco and reports the issue to the infrastructure team.

I cannot post topics with more than 4k characters, even with a maximum length of 99000 in the configuration. It simply does not post and does not display any message.
An error occurs in the pool and perspective as shown in the console.





Looks like this forum is under a reverse proxy of some sorts. Can you try removing it and running a standard install?

It is badly configured, since it doesn’t even listen on the port 80, aka htttp://forum.wdgautomation.com doesn’t work.

I found out the problem! The Perspective plug-in causes the error. I disabled it and now it works.
