When using the Copy to URL function on a chart, it provides a short link to the chart. However, in some cases, that short link expands to a really long link that overflows the length of a request.
For example, https://analytics.frdev.wikimedia.org/r/2390 ends up with a url that tosses the following error
Bad Request Request Line is too large (4326 > 4094)
We may wish to look at adjusting this to handle some of our really large charts. Also, it's possible we won't want to.
Current max length we are hitting the issue is in the realm of 5200. We can update it to a value higher than that with a little bit of buffer for the future.
We will want to adjust this within the gunicorn config: https://docs.gunicorn.org/en/latest/settings.html?highlight=limit_request_line#limit-request-line
Getting some inconsistencies when testing this and it isn't worth breaking superset during en6c.
Looks like we will want to go to 1.5.2/bullseye soon anyway. We can roll this config change into that update.
1.5.3 and bullseye upgrade has completed. Bumped to "limit_request_line = 5120" and tested that this is working.
@JMando if you see any more reports of the Request Line is too large error please let us know. I set it above where we currently hit but we could always raise it if need be.
