Apache’s default URL/URI length of 8190 characters is sufficient for most websites. However, if your requests exceed this limit, then Apache will throw a “Request-URI too large” error. To fix this problem, we will increase the max URL length in Apache.

1) Login into the SSH server.

If you want to increase the max URL/URI length in Apache to 100000 characters, just add the following line to your Apache server configuration file.
# vi /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf LimitRequestLine 100000 :wq 3) Make sure the configuration syntax is correct or not with help of the following command:
# httpd -t
