max_input_vars set even if commented in php.ini
According to the manual, there is indeed a default value of 1000
for max_input_vars
(look in the table at the beginning of the page).
If you want a value different than this default value of 1000, you will have to specify it -- and not comment the directive in your configuration.
As far as I can tell, there is no way to make max_input_vars
unlimited ; you could set it to a high enough value, of course, but remember that this directive has been added recently as a security measure. Also, it doesn't make sense to set the max_input_vars
to unlimited since then a malicious user could send a huge load of data and exhaust your memory.

I have a strange problem in my PHP application. In my php.ini, I have commented out the
max_input_vars
directive, but when submitting 1-2k forms (I know it's kinda large), the last 200 post values are cut off. The strange thing is that I even restarted my Apache. Myphpinfo()
shows that limit is set to 1000. Is that the default value? How do I makemax_input_vars
unlimited?
