414 Request-URI Too Large when checking out with PayPal

Hi,

I am seeing the following error when I am trying to checkout with PayPal if I have a large number of items in my cart (I am testing with 25)

========================================

414 Request-URI Too Large

========================================

A quick google search on PayPal’s help page gives me the following info:

========================================

414 Request-URI Too Long – The server won’t accept the request because the URL is too long. Occurs when you convert a POST request to a GET request with long query information.

========================================

Also, after seeing this error, going back to the cart, the cart is empty. This is incredibly frustrating when they have just spent the last 30 minutes having to put each image in their cart individually as you do not support a multi-select function (yet).

Can you please help me with this as I will need my customer to check out large numbers of images in one go. Asking them to split the cart really isn’t an option especially with the user not being able to save the cart or multi-select images.

Thanks,

Garry
