------------------------------

             Summary: HTTP Violation: proxies MUST handle 65536byte-long URIs
                 Key: TS-2024
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-2024
             Project: Traffic Server
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: HTTP
            Reporter: Igor Galić


citing the RFC:
{quote}
   The HTTP protocol does not place any a priori limit on the length of
   a URI. Servers MUST be able to handle the URI of any resource they
   serve, and SHOULD be able to handle URIs of unbounded length if they
   provide GET-based forms that could generate such URIs. A server
   SHOULD return 414 (Request-URI Too Long) status if a URI is longer
   than the server can handle (see section 10.4.15).

      Note: Servers ought to be cautious about depending on URI lengths
      above 255 bytes, because some older client or proxy
      implementations might not properly support these lengths.
