Chokes when deleting more than 200 Trackbacks in a row
Posted: Thu Apr 03, 2008 4:17 pm
Hi,
over the last few days, trackback spammers have been rather active, and I had 277 trackbacks pending approval in my blog.
I selected "show all, pending approval", got a big page of 277 trackbacks, clicked on "reverse selection" and "delete selected", was asked whether I was sure and ...
... found myself back at the login prompt. Reproduced this with deleted cookies in both Firefox and Konqueror.
Deleting 50 comments using the same mechanism (starting with "show 50, pending approval") worked fine, and trying to delete the remaining 227 trackbacks in a single row failed again the same way. Deleting more 50 trackbacks worked fine again, and trying to delete the remaining 177 trackbacks using the same procedure was possible as well.
Is it possible that something in the chain of progress chokes on a http request that is larger than 10 Kbytes?
Greetings
Marc
