Why does PHP 5.2 on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS truncate long $_POST (external input) values, like the max_input_vars directive does in PHP 5.3?
I am supporting an old e-commerce site (that is soon to be replaced) and after recently updating, the admin could no longer fully edit a product due to the having over 1000 input vars.
(PHP 5.2 was installed using the Zend Server Community Edition)
I searched and debugged for quite a while to find out that is was the
max_input_varsdirective. But, officially, there is nomax_input_varsdirective in PHP 5.2, according to this.I finally found that it was back-ported here.
Updating/adding the directive solved the problem.
I hope this helps save someone else the headache of tracking this down.
