In any case, deleting that big number of files does not show a dialog and fails. I think the error is the ''LimitRequestFields'' in Apache, which is 100 by default. I've e-mailed Niels and told him to check the value of 4 Apache variables and 5 PHP that can affect the behavior of forms. > > > It could be the configured size limit of the number of POST data allowed on the server side. That should be visible in the error log. Try using the ''Select matching extension'' and make sure that not to many entries are selected (test 5, then 10 etc). If this is the case, the server configuration needs to be changed. > > Maybe the server configuration needs to be changed... :) Probably. Let's await Niels reply. Another option is to change the JavaScript to select ~95 each time (or how many you can select and have room for the form data). That is a better solution since it will work if we reinstall the tool later on. Default configuration changes should be avoided. A third option is to do it using Ajax. Then there should be no limit. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/7457#comment:3> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
