The cause of the 403 error in Apache when posting content that exceeds 8186 bytes is most likely due to a configuration setting in Apache that limits the maximum size of the request body. This setting is usually called "LimitRequestBody" and is set to a default value of 8192 bytes in Apache.

When you try to post content that exceeds this limit, Apache will return a 403 error indicating that access to the resource is forbidden. To resolve this issue, you can increase the value of the LimitRequestBody setting in your Apache configuration file to allow larger request bodies.
