Failed import from arxiv search #25

Closed cjcopi closed 9 years ago

cjcopi commented 9 years ago

Using the search to find paper 1507.03414 correctly finds it and offers the option to import it. Clicking on "import" produces "import failed". I did not try any other paper.

I have not looked at the code at all but

Yes I was logged in at the time. Yes this happens on both chrome and firefox.

I see this error in the console when I attempt to import:

GET http://glamdring.case.edu/coffee/js/import.php?import-id=http%3A%2F%2Farxiv…aving+spin+3%2F2+and+the+other+5%2F2.+&section=hep-ex&arxivId=1507.03414v1 414 (Request-URI Too Long)

...the full GET URL is really long (mostly due to a lot of authors on the paper) so this is hitting a URL length restriction on the server. Changing to POST request might be a workaround.
