QGIS wfs-t server: cannot modify/add features if they have many nodes, necessary to raise the maximum body size of a HTTP request

Original Redmine Issue: 11497

Redmine category:documentation_and_help

---

In the latest qgis server versions if a feature has many nodes then modifying it or adding new one will fail if it has many nodes.

Errors: ERROR: 1 geometries not changed.

Provider errors:

empty response

Simplified/generalized versions of the same feature will be saved with no problems.

It seems it is not a wfs client issue as the same feature will edit with no problems if published with geoserver.

I can't remember to have seen this issue in older qgis/server releases, but as I'm not 100% sure I'm not tagging this as a blocker.

Cannot reproduce.

the words "many nodes" do not permit a precise identification of the feature causing the problem.

Can you please add a test project with the minimum feature set to reproduce the issue?

• status_id was changed from Open to Feedback

yes I can provide a test server, but only later during the day.

cheers!

it turns out that is necessary to raise the maximum body size of a HTTP request, like

FcgidMaxRequestLen 26214400 FcgidConnectTimeout 60

better add a note in the docs.
