Description

This error appears when trying to check for plugin updates. The cause is having 15 or more plugins on your board. I was able to reproduce this on my board and was able to fix this by moving the files in /plugins/ to another folder and moving them one by one. I tested the results with different plugins and it appears that 14 plugins is the limit, anything more than this will cause the error.

Maybe a server configuration problem here. Maybe a post variable limit in php.ini or something.

I have successfully reproduced this. It looks like the info GET parameter gets too long and something on our server rejects it. I have worked around the issue and a fix will be available in 1.4.10.
