Hi All, 

I am using Role-based Authorization Strategy in my organization for managing and assigning roles to users. In my Manage and Assign Roles -> Assign roles tab, I have 160 users for Global Roles and 160 users for Project Roles. When I tried to add 161th user to the Project Roles, it threw a "FormContentSize" error. But I was able to add when I removed an existing inactive user. So my question here is does this plugin has the limitation of users to 160/320, if yes how can we bump the number of users. 

Regards, 
Raj

If you search the Jenkins Jira for “maxFormContentSize”, that gives some solutions to a similar problem. However, I’m not sure if they apply in this particular case.

I have bumped the “maxFormContentSize” from 200000 to 500000 in jenkins.xml but it did not resolve the issue, but as I mentioned in my earlier post it allowed me to add a new user only when I removed an existing user. This meaning I have reached the number of users limit, so my question is does the plug in has users limit, if yes, how can we bump the number?

You need to restart jenkins hard to get any effect, I guess. And depending how your jenkins server is deployed, see https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-30062?focusedCommentId=236731&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-236731 as well.
