Hi,
I just ran into the same error. When checking the syslog I saw this event every time I tried to edit a large table:
Mar 4 17:09:22 *servername* suhosin[6974]: ALERT – configured POST variable limit exceeded – dropped variable ‘table[data][48][0]’ (attacker ’88.*.*.*’, file ‘/path/to/wp-admin/tools.php’)
So obviously this is a “problem” (well, not really a problem) with suhosin. What I did was edit the file /etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/suhosin.ini (Debian Lenny). I set the values for
suhosin.post.max_vars
suhosin.request.max_vars
to a higher value and now everything works as expected ??
Thanks for the great plugin, Tobias! ??
