Description Aleisha Amohia 2024-02-19 21:56:26 UTC

We have a record with over 500 items attached. When we do select all> modify selected items, the browser serves an Apache 414 error:

Request-URI Too Long

The requested URL's length exceeds the capacity limit for this server.
Apache/2.4.56 (Debian) Server at library.niwa.co.nz Port 443

This is because all of the itemnumbers get appended to the URL.

We can still export the barcodes and go to Cataloging > Batch item modification and submit the barcodes that way, but it adds a few extra steps, and the error isn't great!

We would love to see an improvement on this as well as we have quite a few bib records with more than 500 items.  Our issue is that most of them are microfilm items and do not have barcodes, so we can't export a barcode file and batch update that way.  Being able to do the batch update within the bib record would be fantastic!

I think this and bug 32278 are duplicates? I'll close this (bug 36133), since 32278 hints at a solution.
