    MySQL error too big column length

    softtob
    softtob Oct 14, 2002 7:35 AM

      I switched out the default db to use MySQL instead (jndi=/DefaultDS).

      The I deployed an CMP entity EJB with just a few fields:
      id (Integer)
      name (String)
      number (int)

      When jBoss deploys the bean it runs an SQL query and tries to create a table and the fields but I got this error (stacktrace shown below). Can you please help me out here!!!

      Thanks,
      SoftTob

          Hello,

          I think your type-mapping is still "Hypersonic" for the DefaultDS (String is then mapped to VARCHAR(256), just over 255). See standardjaws.xml anf jbosscmp-jdbc.xml under $JBOSS_HOME/server/default/conf.

          The above works if you need some quick results. However, I wouldn't recommend editing those server configuration files, you will need to do it everytime you install or upgrade JBoss. Instead, deploy a custom jaws.xml and jbosscmp-jdbc.xml with your ejb jar. And maybe use some different datasource than DefaultDS for your own apps. A new datasource can be configured by deploying a new service xml to $JBOSS_HOME/server/default/deploy. Sample files can be found under $JBOSS_HOME/docs/examples/jca.
          The JBoss template sample project (JBoss.3.0TemplateAndExamples.zip) may give some ideas.

          Aki
