It looks like you have 1161 values here, so maxBooleanClauses does need to be increased beyond the default, but the error message would be different if that limit were being reached. The problem seems to be that this URL is 8251 bytes long, counting the extra space after json, which a browser would likely expand to three characters, making it 8253 bytes long. Every webserver I have ever looked at has a default 8192 byte limit on HTTP headers -- the actual header here would have "GET " before the URL and " HTTP/1.1" after it, so there's a potential header size of 8266 bytes here -- which won't work if the server config is left alone. You have two choices. You must either bump up the max header size in the Jetty config, or change to a POST request instead of a GET request, and put the query parameters in the POST body. In 5.x and 6.x, the server/etc/jetty.xml config already has a line for the requestHeaderSize, you just need to change the number. This is from my config -- we have queries up to 20K in size: <Set name="requestHeaderSize"><Property name="solr.jetty.request.header.size" default="32768" /></Set> As you can see, this config uses a property. You could add "-Dsolr.jetty.request.header.size=32768" to your Solr startup options and achieve the same result. Personally, I just edit jetty.xml -- which I need to remember to do again when I upgrade Solr. I need to check whether we are using POST in our code or not. That would solve the entire issue.
