Long posts getting truncated after submitting

    Hi everyone!

    This is a weird one. A highly trafficked blog I help with is starting to see posts with a lot of content getting truncated / cut off. It seems to be in the 10,000+ character range that this is most accurately reproduced. In the meantime I’ve suggested splitting really long posts into two separate ones – but it’s not ideal, and has never been an issue before.

    The environment right now is an nginx+lamp stack. The version of nginx we’re using is 0.7.64. The reason I mention this is because of something I saw here.

    Has anyone else run into this? The problem/symptom is that the last 2 or 3 lines of text in the post gets chopped off / truncated after every update. When the posts is split to about half its size the problem no longer occurs.

    Hopefully someone can help! Thanks!

    Are you running any caching plugins? If not, it might be worth trying one of them out.

    @esmi – oh definitely. There’s a caching plugin installed but that’s not the problem. The post gets truncated immediately after clicking update – not on the visitor side, but in the actual wordpress dashboard.

    1 Click update.
    2 Content posts to wp-admin
    3 Saves to DB
    4 Redirects back to the page that edits that post

    the post is truncated in the text-area where you edit it.

    It’s nginx.

    Hit a super-long post via apache’s port directly. Hit update. No truncation.

    Hit the same super-long post via nginx’s port. Hit update. Truncated.

    So I don’t know if this is something someone on the wordpress team wants to investigate or not? Long posts (~14kb) posted through nginx->apache will do it.
