Hi there,

I am new. First experience with Datagerry. Installed (deb) and working. User imported. Template created.  
When I add a new field (for laptop / hardware) then I got the following error message when I will save it:

An Error Occurred

Bad Request  
Request Line is too large (4222 \> 4094)

So what can I do?  
I would like to add more fields.

I created this request in the community first, 3 days ago.  
I assume that it is a Nginx “issue”. So I added these lines to the nginx.conf but it wasn’t helpful:

client\_max\_body\_size 0;  
client\_header\_buffer\_size 8k;  
client\_body\_buffer\_size 16k;  
large\_client\_header\_buffers 8 16k;

So “Request Line is too large (4222 \> 4094)” is definitely less than my configured 8k.  
So where is it configured if not in nginx.conf? (or not in sites-enabled/default)

thank you and best,  
O

Solved.

But **not** from Datagerry’s documentation!
