Request Entity Too Large While saving the form

rzrz 12 Nov, 2014
I got the error message below, so I asked my host and they replied saying that its because the extension will not work
unless it is validated. Is that true and how can I fix this?


Request Entity Too Large

The requested resource
/administrator/index.php
does not allow request data with GET requests, or the amount of data provided in the request exceeds the capacity limit.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Hi rzrz,

It has **nothing** to do with validation. It is a problem with your server settings. "does not allow request data with GET requests, or the amount of data provided in the request exceeds the capacity limit."

Please see this FAQ
