Base Path only allows 50 characters

Installation
1

Hi

I have run into a spot of trouble when running an installation on my new hosting - their base path is very long and I get the error message - Must not be more than 50 characters long - and I cannot save my system settings due to this

Any help on where I would be able to change this value - i cannot change the base path

Thanks in advance

That is a long path! I’ve increased the limit from 50 characters to 100 in the following commit:

This is just a UI change, as the database fields used for these are not limited to a number of characters (gibbonSetting is set up to hold all sorts of different values). As you worked out, you can circumvent this on the client side with no adverse consequences.
