HTTP 500 and not an error message in domain name creation
HTTP 500 and not an error message in domain name creation
(Problems not related to KeyHelp belong in the Offtopic forum)
Server operating system + version: Debian 13
Server virtualization technology used: Qemu / KVM
KeyHelp version + build number: 25.2 (Build 3483)
Problem description / error messages: When I try to create a really long domain, it just throws HTTP 500. Max length of domain name before the dot is 63. The issue is the missing error message.
Steps to reproduce: Try to create a really long domain name, for example: "asdadsdasgdsjfghahgfdjkjassdadsdasdasdadjjjjjjjsdasasdadhdasaaaajjjhhhhhhhjad.hu"
Thank you!

Re: HTTP 500 and not an error message in domain name creation
Domain names have some strict limits defined by DNS:
- Each label (the part between dots) can be at most 63 characters.
- The full domain can be at most 253 characters.
In your example, the first label seems to exceed that 63-character limit, so the domain would be invalid anyway. That could explain why KeyHelp rejects it.

As far as I can tell, it sounds like there might be a problem here. If I'm interpreting the issue description correctly, the panel is ignoring the 63-character limit, not throwing an error, and creating overly long domains in the panel (and in the DNS server, if it's being used).blickgerecht wrote: ↑Fri 5.

@bytefly:
The developers will definitely look into this, thanks for the report!
