[TYPO3-english] CoolURI URL cannot exceed 45 chars. Bug or configuration?

[René van Densen]

Hi Roy,

has to be a bug, our CoolURI URLs easily makes it past 90 chars. I can't
provide you with a further answer to CoolURI since I don't know a lot about
it (someone else handled that part of our project) but just to let you know
this probably shouldn't be the case. Have you checked the database field
limits yet (would be the first place I'd look at, but then I'm a Typo3 n00b
myself) ? (There's a PHPmyadmin extension available that allows you to
easily check these things, just a tip in case you didn't know.)

Cheers,

René van Densen
