Description
Reject all
PUT /objectrequests with a combined bucket and file path exceeding 1024 bytes (i.e. bucket path + file path + filename, including all/'s in between).This is because S3 has a hard limit of 1024 bytes on object keys.
Previously, such requests were already being rejected, but with a HTTP 502 (
"detail": "Bucket communication error") instead.SHOWCASE-3792
Types of changes

Further comments
The focus of the Jira ticket was on potentially problematic characters in bucket (i.e. BCBox folder) names.
However, the only way I was able to break COMS was by creating objects with excessively long filenames that exceed the S3 max key length. This wasn't part of the original ticket, but nonetheless improves handling of potentially problematic bucket/file names.
