Description

Apparently the length of the issue description (the field I'm typing into right now) is not checked and causes an Internal Error 500. Inserting around 150Kb of text (I know, not a good idea) triggered the error and we had to check the Redmine log to get a better idea of the cause of the error message.

If I understand correctly, the limit of the number of characters in the description field depends on the database field type which in MySql is 2^16 i.e. about 64Kb.

We're using 1.1.1 in a Windows environment with MySql.

Not sure Issues is the right category, or should it be Database?
