In contrast to a wiki without https functionality a wiki with https functionality allows a maximum of 7 properties to be queried in one inline query and to use further results (Special:Ask). If I query for more attributes at once an try to proceed to Special:Ask via the link to more results the query parameters get abandoned and thus it breaks. The link to more results starts to show a little lock at that occasion. It does not do that up to the maximum of 7 properties. I filed this bug since a wiki without https functionality allows more properties to be queried for at once. Unfortunately I cannot provide access to the respective wiki since it contains confidential information.
Accidentally, but finally I found the cause of this "bug" which made me sad for quite some time now: suhosin.get.max_value_length was at 512. After I increased the value to 1024 it works fine. Thanks go to MW 1.17. and ResourceLoader v1. Otherwise I would never have noticed. I will introduce a hint on semantic-mediawiki.org. This might be a bit redundant since it is the recommended value for MW 1.17. but ...
