> Well, it does work as you describe... But doing a "Select all" or
"Select all {extension}" and ending up with only 50 selected items is
kinda fraudulent. :)
Well, don't shoot the messenger. As I explained, I think it is a bad idea
to change the Apache configuration. So this is what we have to live with.
Vincent probably never tested with more than 100 checkboxes, which I can
understand.
> I guess you can't select really all matches and do the actual deleting
in 50 item batches in the background?[[BR]]
No, since Apache would only allow 100 items (I think) in each request.
Ajax would work, or sending a text file containing the data. But both are
lots of work for little effect.
> Granted, having so many unhandled resources seems to be a very
improbable situation. I think us having over 3000 of those resulted from
some unintended import.[[BR]]
> Can you delete all those ".svn-base" files directly in the database?
After those are gone, I'd be fine with a 50 item limit.
I do not have access to the server. That complicates things. Also, I think
that they are deleted from the database but kept on disk in case you need
to undo. Which is good.
> PS: Is there a way to see if Niels has already pushed one of your
changes to the server? Maybe some version/date info on an admin page?
Not easily, no. Maybe he could send an e-mail to some mailing-list after
each upgrade. But that's off-ticket.
If you e-mail me the instructions of what you want to delete, then I can
help you. It will not take that long to do and it is a one-time job. I
will also e-mail Niels and ask him to manually change to 95, which should
be the maximum since there are 5 form inputs (form, 2 buttons and a
textbox). I selected 50 because I was certain that it would work. If 95
works, I can create a patch using 95 instad of 50 and also change the
Select All button label to something less "fraudulent".
In my word this ticket is now solved. Agreed?
