Resolved Mod_Security Error Response body too large

[BWMC]

Hello,

I use Plesk on Ubuntu and installed Mod_Security with Comodo ModSecurity subscription.

I also set "Predefined Set Of Values" to THOROUGH.

For large pages it returns an Error 500 page.

The mod_security log file says:
Message: Output filter: Response body too large (over limit of 524288, total not specified).

How can I increase the limit?

I tried to add a vhost.conf file but it seems to be ignored. I'm not knowledgeable enough to fully understand this whole issue.

My current workaround is to set from THOROUGH to TRADEOFF.

Thanks for your help!

To fix the issue, try to add the following lines in Domains >domain.com > Apache & nginx Settings > Additional directives for HTTP:

<IfModule mod_security2.c>
SecResponseBodyLimit 546870912
</IfModule>

And pressed apply.

Awesome!

From what I can tell, it worked!

Thanks a lot!

This was my issue as well and this fixed it. Is there a Plesk tutorial on this?

Hello you!
I have a question!
Is it possible to make this for the whole reseller?
I've made it at 2 domains for a customer.
But we think it could happen on more domains.
I hope you have a reseller-wide solution!
Thank you for reading. Thank you more for answer!

it works for me, BUT only for HTTPS,
NOT HTTP - screen is attached

Hi, I am expereincing a similar problem, but I only get the error when I am logged into WordPress, when not logged in it works fine. I'm guessing that this is something to do with a plug in, but wondered if anyone had any ideas. Thanks

Same case as backfour94, the root of the problem was Query Monitor plugin !

Same - it caught me as odd to have it only listed in the HTTP section, and when testing, it didn't work.

Adding to HTTPS resolved the issue, cheers! -Ian

Adding it for your entire plesk (all domains) is the easiest option as mentioned by moswak on post #8:

1. Log in to Plesk.
2. Navigate to Tools & settings > Web Application Firewall (ModSecurity) > Settings > Custom directives section:
3. Add the following line:
   SecResponseBodyLimit 536870912
4. Press Apply
