How to increase max request length ?

[LvffY]

Hi,

We're using your (great) code to deploy our Sonarqube in Azure Webapp.

It works like a charm, except for one feature. When we analysed a project, we'd like to go to the window "measures" but when we get here, we only get some The request cannot be processed. Try again later.

Actually, after some digging, it turns out this seems to be some kind of badly configuration set up.

But because I'm (really) not an expert in Azure web app, I don't know where to "increase this request size".

Could you help me on this ? May be you already have this kind of issue and I'm totally misunderstanding the problem

Best regards,

LvffY

I am glad you find it useful @LvffY!

I have not ran into query length issues myself, but doing some internet research it appears a web.config in the wwwroot folder should help you out.

Hello @vanderby

That perfectly solved my issue :)

For anyone who's falling in here, I made the changes explained in first link pointed by @vanderby.

Concretely, I changed my file C:\home\site\wwwroot\web.config (because of my windows setup, probably /home/site/wwwroot/web.config in Linux setup) and add the following lines in the security.webServer section :

<security>
  <requestFiltering>
     <!-- 5000 is an arbitrary choice based on the request that failed for me -->
    <requestLimits maxQueryString="5000" />
  </requestFiltering>
</security>

@vanderby May be you could pin this issue to avoid you to answer another issue on this point ?

Anyway, thanks a lot for your help !

Best regards,

LvffY
