I'm getting this error: SQL=CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `jos_netatmo_climastations` ( `id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, `name` VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL , `mac_address` VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL , `notes` TEXT , PRIMARY KEY (`id`), UNIQUE(name, mac_address) ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

The project worked fine in sandbox last time I worked on it. Now if also fails there. Any idea as to the reason for this?

EDIT: updated joomla to 3.2.1, then tried again - this time it installed, but with these messages:

Warning
JInstaller: :Install: Cannot find Joomla XML setup file

JInstaller: :Install: Cannot find XML setup file

Message
Installing JDOM version 2.6.1, was successfull!

Updating Netatmo was successfull.

Installing component was successful.

Trying to use the component: getting SQL=SELECT a.id,a.address,a.city,a.client_type,a.contact_email,a.contact_person,a.contact_phone,a.name,a.zip_code,_client_type_.name AS `_client_type_name` FROM jos_netatmo_clients AS a LEFT JOIN `jos_netatmo_clienttypes` AS _client_type_ ON _client_type_.id = a.client_type ORDER BY a.client_type asc LIMIT 0, 20 error... and no link from components to the component.

Something is wrong...

Tried to uninstall, then install again. Getting this error again: SQL=CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `jos_netatmo_climastations` ( `id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, `name` VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL , `mac_address` VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL , `notes` TEXT , PRIMARY KEY (`id`), UNIQUE(name, mac_address) ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

Also, if I flush dataset, and hit run in sandbox, then I get a "component now found" error. Then I have to build again for it to show up. This has happened many times, not just when I flush, but I just noticed it again. It seems to happen the first time I run sandbox when I open the project.

Also attached some error screenshots. (edit: attachment doesn't work for me - linked to dropbox instead).

An example of the db design that generates one of the error pages.

I've tried in both J3.2 and J3.0 - same errors. On 2.5 I can't even build. I get this error:

The content of the 2.5 error is:

Hi @dyvel,

Fortunately this is an easy one to fix: Your climastations table has exceeded MySQL's key size of 1000bytes. Basically, this is the result of specifying the 'Unique' property on one or more fields who's length exceeds 255 chars.

If you remove the unique property from one of your fields or reduce the overall length of fields to be no greater than 255 chars (varchar) then you'll be OK.

Hope it helps and sorry for not spotting the thread earlier!

dyvel Offline Elite Member Posts: 200 Thank you received: 11 Karma: 10	I'll have a look later today, but do you believe that explains the j3.2 / j3.0 errors? I can't use 2.5 (won't) for my project. J2.5 was just to test if it would build

dyvel Offline Elite Member Posts: 200 Thank you received: 11 Karma: 10	I does solve the problem in 2.5 to remove the "unique" attribute or change max length to 254 for the name field. Low and behold if it didn't also fix the issue in 3.2 Damn! Pardon my french Thank you very much for the help!

JoomGuy Offline Moderator Joomla Enthusiast, Lover of Cooking Posts: 1115 Thank you received: 195 Karma: 64	Hey @dyvel, No worries... Yes, I'm 99.9% certain that the reason for the different errors you receive in 3.2 to those in 2.5 is because of how the cook interface works in the 3.2 sandbox. Yes, it is the same problem - MySQL's index length/size restriction. Cool, glad it worked! G

Hey J, how's it going?

Is it the error reporting that you mean you have to fix? If so, I may have 'jumped the gun' and I'm sorry if I marked as closed prematurely!

I marked the ticket closed because we solved it. It is not really a J-Cook problem. It is a MySQL restriction on index size. I realised this was likely the case when I saw the title of the thread as I too, experienced this a while back. So, when I looked at the thread from the beginning, I could see a difference between the error output in J!2.5 & 3.2. When I'd faced these issues, I didn't check it in 2.5 so I'd not had the benefit of seeing the SQL error in the output.

The problem was due to the index size, specifically that one of the tables in the project had 2 varchar fields each with unique indexes, totalling 510 characters, i.e. over 1000b. Solved by reducing the length of the varchar fields.
