increasing ASM system variable ecard_max_http_req_uri_len
Has anyone needed to increase the ASM system variable ecard_max_http_req_uri_len in a production envinronment?
ecard_max_http_req_uri_len
2048 bytes
Defines a maximum URI length that the system can support in its internal buffers. If this number is higher (more permissive) than the internal URI-length limit defined per file type, the internal file-type limit is the actual limit. Exceeding this internal limit triggers the HTTP protocol compliance failed violation.
If so, how large did you make it?

Hello. You don't mention any versions, but to answer the basic question, yes. I have seen people increase this. Depending on how large, it may have side effects, but there is no hard-and-fast rule about x size causes y side-effect. How large are your URLs? If you are having other issues with this violation, feel free to open a Support Case.

Why this violation triggered? Is the problem related to the user browser or any malicious in his PC?

Can the ecard_max_http_req_uri_len variable be read from the CLI? I can't seem to find it anywhere.
