[let92]

• I used the GitHub search to find a similar issue and didn't find it.

What is the issue you are experiencing?

Changing the name of a recipe imported by URL with a long slug will cause a 500 internal server error "File name too long" saved in the container log.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a recipe calling API "recipes/create/url" or on web app with this URL: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DGYfiexBvtE
2. Change the name to something shorter like "Pasta" and edit the recipe on web app or by calling API "recipes/giallozafferano-on-instagram-il-piatto-vincente-di-simone-barlaam-medaglia-d-oro-e-d-argento-a-parigi-2024-paccheri-tricolore-se-ve-li-siete-persi-dovete-assolutamente-rimediare-lulugargari-ingredienti-paccheri-320-gr-spinacini-500-gr-nocciole-50-gr-ricotta-350-gr-olio-evo-q-b-limone-non-trattato-con-buccia-edibile-q-b-menta-q-b-peperoncino-fresco-q-b-10-pomodorini-ciliegino-preparazione-saltiamo-gli-spinaci-in-padella-lasciamo-raffreddare-e-frulliamo-insieme-a-ricotta-olio-sale-pepe-e-peperoncino-fresco-cuociamo-la-pasta-al-dente-e-mantechiamo-fuori-dal-fuoco-con-la-crema-tostiamo-a-parte-noci-o-nocciole-e-frulliamo-con-scorza-di-limone-impiattiamo-i-paccheri-con-qualche-spinacino-fresco-ciuffetti-di-ricotta-pomodorini-tagliati-in-4-e-la-polvere-di-nocciole-e-limone-buon-appetito-dmtc-pr-finp-nuotoparalimpico-giallozafferano-ricette-olimpiadi-paralimpiadi-atleti-simonebarlaam-cucina-paccheri-pasta-spinaci"
3. Receive 500 internal server error even if the change on name was made (that is a problem for the client waiting for the success edit response)

Made more testing and the error appears also using web app and not only API calls (can be tested on demo site). So edited che description of the problem: after creating a recipe importing the URL above and changing the recipe name, an error occurs but the name is changed correctly.

This is a problem for a client that is waiting for the success edit response.
