Nginx HTTP 414 request-URI too large
On a Nginx server, when accessing a long url, i get error
HTTP 414 Request-URI Too Large
To fix the error, edit
vi /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
inside “http” section, find
large_client_header_buffers
Replace the line with
large_client_header_buffers 4 32k;
If your URL is very large, you may need to increase the 32k to higher or reduce the url length.
Large url like this mostly happend due to bad application design, so if possible try to make URL smaller.
Restart nginx
systemctl restart nginx
On older servers (centos 6, ubuntu 14, etc..), run
service nginx restart
