Apache is not logging any error when this happens. I experimented with
upping the LimitRequestLine, and LimitRequestFieldsize apache config
directives but hasn't made any difference.
I tried your suggestion to decode the string (even one that works ok)
but am getting this error....Not sure what this means...
I even tried
irb(main):017:0>
Zlib::Inflate.inflate(Base64.decode64(CGI.unescape(text)))
Zlib::BufError: buffer error
from (irb):17:in `inflate'
from (irb):17
from :0

I meant incoming request. Those are usually the issue with apache,
especially if the given node has a large number of facts or long facts.

You can try to decode the facts (as you asked in your first message)
with this:
1) launch irb
2) enter:
require 'zlib'
require 'cgi'
text="<insert here the content of the facts parameters as in your log>"
Zlib::Inflate.inflate(Base64.decode64(CGI.unescape(text)))
This should print on the console the YAML serialization of the facts.
If in those you have the missing facts, then the problem is that this
request is not transmitted verbatim to puppet.
Hope that helps,
