Benno, it works fine for me so the reason why you cannot save the long description must be caused by the HTML text you try to save. Can you please attach it to this bug? Thanks.

Honzo, can you please take a look at this? Unfortunately, this must be debugged because log does not provide any information about the error.

Hi,
I have just tried to edit my test plugin's long description with html provided and it passed. I also tried on plugin the bug was reported on and it also works.

I remember changing some columns definitions on the Db some time ago and I guess it helped.

Closing as works-for-me
