Bug
In ArcGIS Enterprise 10.7, creating more than 39 pages within a site through ArcGIS Enterprise Portal causes "An Unexpected Error has Occurred" page. There is documentation stating there is no limit to the number of pages that can be made, therefore users should be able to create more than 39 pages without any error. Below is documentation on creating pages for a site: https://enterprise.arcgis.com/en/portal/latest/use/creating-pages-on-your-site.htm

Additional Information
Increase the IIS max query length. Out of the box Windows sets this very low. The reason for the error is the length of a query to the API. We are changing the approach of this page to prevent a long query in 10.8 but there are other queries that could run into this. In general it is a good idea to increase the default limit in IIS.Workaround
Go into the 'web.config' file within the C:\inetpub\wwwroot folder and update the code to read:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
<system.webServer>
<security>
<requestFiltering>
<requestLimits maxUrl="10999" maxQueryString="9999" />
</requestFiltering>
</security>
</system.webServer>
<system.web>
<httpRuntime maxUrlLength="10999" maxQueryStringLength="2097151" />
<customErrors mode="Off" />
</system.web>
</configuration>
