One comes to this list for help, not friendship. Short, pointed, answers are helpful. Sadly, many people think such answers are rude. Sorry.. but I don't have time to write long flowery answers. And you have no right to demand them, either. This is a public mailing list, where you may (or may not) get help for free. Take what help you can get. > Character count meaning the below and as stated above (IT WAS > SHORTENED FOR BREVITY'S SAKE) I see. You posted a question for help, and *misled us* about what you were doing. And *I'm* the rude one? Here's a hint: when you ask for help, don't lie. Post the information that's requested, and take the actions that are suggested. The only people who get upset about following instructions are the people who think flowery language is more important than solving their problem. > so I didn't take up the whole post with > log lines > and surely now we can see it is 4KB in size (so it's 4096 bytes less > the semicolon my mistake). > > Am I thinking a bit? Starting. But... you edited the queries. And you *didn't* say this in your original message. Another lie of omission. Lying about what you're doing makes it difficult to help you. And yes, you will likely get upset about being told you're lying. Tough. It's unquestionably what you did, and unquestionably the reason why my response was "think about what you posted". So you're upset at my response because you are the one who started out with lies. In any case, you edited the queries to break the server. Either fix the queries so they're smaller, or poke the server source code to let it use huge queries. Since many of the assumptions in the code are that the queries will be small, you may have to go spelunking through large parts of the server to get huge queries to work. Good luck.
