Unexpected status code - 414

[Smasherr]

Suddenly got this error while working in the java editor. I guess it popped up because of a background update on redmine task repository.

414 is a "request URI too long" ; have there been any other changes to the configuration of your web server?

[Smasherr]

Unfortunately I don't know anything about our company redmine server since I am not responsible for its administration. I can only do statements about the user's side.

See if you can make sure that requests are not going through a proxy ; some of the URIs that define queries are very long.

[awilkins]

Alternately, if you make a saved query at the website end, the URIs for them are much shorter, which may be a usable workaround.

I think this may be caused by an attempt to check for updates on all issues that Mylyn already knows about at all, as a list of ID's, not the attempts to update the queries. At least, that's what the query that is getting this response for me is doing. Deleting from Mylyn the records of a bunch of my "Untracked" issues worked as a temporary mitigation.

I'd guess the handling for requests could be made aware of this and batch multi-issue GETs into multiple requests.
