Description of problem: From https://github.com/zanata/zanata-server/pull/400 The path field is not limited, so a user can enter a path that is greater than the 255 character limit. This merely causes a IllegalArgumentException that is caught by seam, and displays a "failed to upload" message, but should not be allowed. Added to that, if the combination of last segment (last index of '/' - end) of the path and the filename length are greater than the standard 255 characters, it should warn that the op is likely to fail. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.4 How reproducible: Easy always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Sign in as a maintainer, go to project 2. Click Settings, Documents, then the [+] button 3. Enter a very long (255+) string in the path, that contains no "/" characters 4. click browse->select a file to upload, click Open 5. Press the upload button Actual results: "Failed to upload" 12:36:57,908 WARN [org.jboss.seam.mock.MockViewHandler] (http-/127.0.0.1:8080-2) You should catch the exception before Seam: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: no file extension in servlet path: /files/upload Expected results: Limited Additional info:
