Batch Wizard: registry TargetListLimitMaximum not applied?

Post by ktp »

Hello again,

From this article https://www.htmlvalidator.com/current/d ... rget_limit ,
I changed the TargetListLimitMaximum value to max 50000 (instead of 30000). I restarted the validator, and verify in Options/Editor options/Other editor that 50000 value is displayed, then I run the Batch wizard, but unfortunately it is still limited to 30000 :-( (the 30000 is displayed in Batch Wizard window title during run), and afterwards in the report: "No more new targets will be added for processing because maximum number of targets (30000) has been reached.".

Is there something wrong?

Edit: in fact, there is also Batch Wizard option that has also to be set to 50000. I will try this.

Hello,

Once you change this registry entry then you will also have to change the 'Max targets' value in the 'Limits' options page of the Batch Wizard Options.

UPDATE: I've changed the documentation to make this clearer. I've added:
Once this limit is increased in the registry and the program restarted, you can then increase (up to the new limit) the 'Max targets' in the Limits options page.

Hello,

The limit change in registry then in Batch Wizard works well.
But since now I use the portable mode of CSS HTML Validator (CHV) viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1134 ,
I am now limited to 30000 instead, although the limit of 50000 is still set in regsitry. Could you check? Thank you.

Hello,

You should be able to use the equivalent in the chvoptions.ini file. Look for the line with "TargetListLimitMaximum" in chvoptions.ini and set it to what you want. Example:

Code: Select all

TargetListLimitMaximum=50000
It should be in this section:

Code: Select all

Fantastic! It works. Changes in two lines:
TargetListLimit=50000
TargetListLimitMaximum=50000

With little advance due to time shift: Merry Xmas to you and your family!
(Xmas under curfew due to Covid-19 in my case :-)).
