Limited countries in localization
July 13, 2009, 05:05:44 pm
Basically, there are a limited number of countries I can pick. I can select all but 55 countries.

I found a previous thread about this topic here:

http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php?topic=8068.0

My problems are similar, but a bit different. We run 2.2.7. And it's definitely not a php error (nothing shows up on the logs, limit is set to 256M).

What's different is that, with this problem, I cannot select *any* of the available states and provinces, even if I de-select countries. But the states/provinces show up just fine in country/state dropdowns.

I am sure that it worked just fine in 2.2.6 - in fact, all countries were selected then; it must be a database change somewhere that set off this problem. Trying a fresh copy of 2.2.7 works just fine, but unfortunately this is an already-existing production installation. Any ideas on where I can go from here to figure out this problem?

OK, in CRM/Admin/Form/Setting/Localization.php::postProcess, I printed out the countryLimit values - only 188 countries (out of 245) are returned, even though all countries were selected. It does seem to be a php issue after all.

Not sure where to go from this point. I also can't figure out where such a php limit would exist. I guess I could add them all manually as a workaround, but I'd like to know the root of this problem.

1. can u reproduce this issue on the demo server (i could not on the demo server, it allowed me to select all)

2. can u print $_POST and see what the contents are

3. we use a pear html element called advmultiselect. if i had to guess there might be a bug in there: packages/HTML/QuickForm/advmultiselect.php. you might want to add debugging code to that file and see if u can get more information/clues

Looks like the bug happens before POST?

3. Tried messing around with advmultiselect.php. I couldn't find anything obvious.

4. Doing: update civicrm_domain set config_backend = NULL; seems to resolve this issue. I can add all the countries, no problem. If I do this on a production server, what would the side effects be, if any? I know the localization stuff is mixed in with other stuff? I can't figure out which other settings though.

Thanks for your help!

Finally fixed this. Posting the answer so others won't run into the same problem I did.

It was a PHP configuration issue, after all.

The fix is to increase the number of POST variables:

php.ini:
suhosin.post.max_vars = 600
suhosin.request.max_vars = 600
