[Gerwin K. -|- D. W. <ge...@di...>]

Heya,

Customers of us using phpmyadmin are getting a 406 error, the log file says:

Error processing request body: Multipart: part header line over 1024 bytes 
long

No clue what this mean, anyone?

  The size of multipart/form-data part headers is limited. These headers
  are normally very simple so I find it very unusual the limit has been
  triggered. You can change this limit yourself by editing the line that
  says:

  #define MULTIPART_BUF_SIZE              1024

  To make sure it is not a bug of some kind, please increase the
  limit to 4096 and record one request using the audit log.

  Thanks!
