"Can not upload file - Too large for php post_max_size directive. Please press the back button."

I am not even uploading anything. Just Multi Quotes.. And I've never faced this before on RVF or other forums.. Got to be some bug.

PS: Did not see a Tech Issue subforum so posting here.

I am sure Im not the only one seeing it. Anyone else?

This happens from time to time. There's a bug in the way that the cloudfare passes the post text to the server.

If it happens, copy your entire post and re-paste it into the "quick reply" box at the bottom of a thread. This will post your post without issue.

Strange I haven't seen it. Has anyone else experienced it?

Post: #4

Yes I've experienced it before. Beast's workaround does work.

Likewise to OP and Beast here!

Try doing a regular reply to any thread, but put in multiple quotes from different users and adding in a lot of VB code (bold, pictures, large text).

It happens anytime cloudflare pops up.

I experience this very often. I even get it with just a single quote without VB code. I use The Beast1 workaround:

I see it every week or two. I think it happens when I'm replying to a post that already quotes other previous posts, possibly with pictures in the post as well.

Every time it happens to me, I hit the back button to go back to the page where you enter your post, and hit Post Reply a second time. When I do this, I have to click "I'm not a robot" the second time, and it goes through. I can't think of a time when it failed to go through the second time.

I get that error all the time if I have quotes or long text. At least it forces me to stay succinct. It also means I have to edit down quoted posts to which I'm replying, and sometimes split posts into multiple posts. It's always accompanied by one of the "are you human" tests, so I assumed it's related to the system seeing me as a dubious character.

Next time this happens to you, PM me the text that caused the error so I can duplicate it on my end.

Post: #11

Happens at least once per day if I post 2-3 times that day.

Post: #12

I get this all the time. I think I know what the problemo is.

This message happens when I get a little blink in my internet connection. You are in the act of posting, and it drops off. Im usually on a satellite connection, so it comes and goes real fast.

The copying method is usually what I do to fix. But if you just hit the back button, its still there.

Aloha!

Post: #13

It's still there but it's still really annoying.

Post: #14

Happened to me several times.

Post: #15

Ive had one that said something about some text size exceeding the 85 character limit when I tried to preview my post. I assumed that it was talking about threads with long ass titles.

No problem posting it but just wouldn't let me preview it.

Post: #16

I have had this issue on several occasions - The Beast's solution works most times for the preview but less often for the post. Will PM you Roosh.

There are times this works and there are times several times of reposting did not work.. I had to copy.. do a thread refresh.. do a "minimal text" Preview and then Paste to post..

And I'm getting Cloud Flare way way way too much these days.. Dunno why..

Havent seen either of the above 2 things before.. over the years.. (so if you see my recent posts and the Big Gap to previous activity you get some idea of time point after which this may have started)..
