XML event truncated at 10k

I've indexed a large XML database and have been searching it successfully. There is one field that contains a description. This description can be very long, well over 10kb.

in props.conf I have set TRUNCATE=0

In limits.conf I have set maxvaluesize=0

But my event still gets cut off at 10k. What am I missing?

Perhaps you also need to set MAX_EVENTS, which is the maximum number of lines in an event. The default is 256. This attribute should be set in props.conf

MAX_EVENTS=2000

for example
