Portal/All page is empty for quite some time.
Anyone looked at the issue?
It seems to be length of the page at issue. Cutting content down to 38k makes saving work. ... possible.
Or it is browser issue?
I do not think so - according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Article_length older browsers have issues with pages larger than 32 k, but modern browsers are not affected.
Me neither, it exists in all browsers, that is what I found running few more tests. I looked at other large files (Special:Longpages) and they display fine. I can manually enter: http://en.opensuse.org/index.php?title=Portal/All&action=edit and see source text, but when I try to use Preview, or Save, I get error message: ---------------------------------- 500 Internal Server Error The origin web server encountered an unexpected condition which prevented it from fulfilling the request. Please try your request again. ---------------------------------- Repeating request doesn't help. After much more testing it seems that number of links per page is limited. For Preview I can have almost whole page to the half of Y section, which is more than 1600 links. For Save that is too much, but I didn't found out what Save will tolerate. I stopped after dropping X out, and it didn't work. The solution for now is to make pages smaller.
BTW, does anyone know whom to contact as responsible person ?
that would probably be me.
Good to know :-) We got discussion who is Wiki Team leader on IRC. Somebody has to take care of answering questions to new users, Board and so on. I guess that the best is to make meeting on IRC. What do you think?
Honestly I have no idea why this restriction exists. I wasn't able to find any configuration option limiting the size of pages in the config files, nor does Google find any hint that such an option exists.
Unless somebody on this list has another idea, all I can do for now is to hope this error will go away when updating to a new MediaWiki version (which hopefully will happen soon).
I was a bit more verbose this time, so hopefully that will give you more facts to investigate.
