Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
kosmit Posted August 30, 2020 Posted August 30, 2020 Hello, I had version 4.4 and updated to 4.5, the update did not come to the end because I got this error below and there was nothing I could do, I made a restore copy and I cannot log into ACP Admin, how do I fix it? Row size too large. The maximum row size for the used table type, not counting BLOBs, is 8126. This includes storage overhead, check the manual. You have to change some columns to TEXT or BLOBs /home/****/domains/****/public_html/system/Application/Application.php::1667 ALTER TABLE `forums_forums` ADD COLUMN `card_image` VARCHAR (255) CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci NULL COMMENT 'Card image file name' Falling back from 4.5 to 4.4 APC Admin bug IPS\Db\Exception: Unknown column 'session_cookie_key' in 'field list' (1054) #0 /home/****/domains/****/public_html/system/Db/Db.php(968): IPS\_Db->preparedQuery('/*IPS\\Session\\_...', Array) #1 /home/***/domains/*****/public_html/system/Session/Admin.php(123): IPS\_Db->replace('core_sys_cp_ses...', Array) #2 [internal function]: IPS\Session\_Admin->write('35e493c54713f3c...', '') #3 /home/***/domains/****/public_html/system/Session/Session.php(149): session_regenerate_id() #4 /home/***/domains/*****/public_html/applications/core/modules/admin/system/login.php(210): IPS\_Session->setMember(Object(IPS\Member)) #5 /home/***/domains/*****/public_html/applications/core/modules/admin/system/login.php(99): IPS\core\modules\admin\system\_login->_doLogin(Object(IPS\Member)) #6 /home/***/domains/***/public_html/system/Dispatcher/Controller.php(96): IPS\core\modules\admin\system\_login->manage() #7 /home/***/domains/****/public_html/system/Dispatcher/Dispatcher.php(152): IPS\Dispatcher\_Controller->execute() #8 /home/***/domains/****/public_html/****/index.php(14): IPS\_Dispatcher->run() #9 {main}

I have restored the files I had on 4.4 and now I cannot login to ACP, I get this error, what should I do? Will deleting all 4.4 files and adding only 4.5 fix the bug, what is now?

kosmit Posted August 30, 2020 Author Posted August 30, 2020 It works ACP Admin, Row size too large. The maximum row size for the used table type, not counting BLOBs, is 8126. This includes storage overhead, check the manual. You have to change some columns to TEXT or BLOBs /home/****/domains/****/public_html/system/Application/Application.php::1667 ALTER TABLE `forums_forums` ADD COLUMN `card_image` VARCHAR (255) CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci NULL COMMENT 'Card image file name' And this error, after switching to 4.5, what does it appear? I know it doesn't add card_image to my database table for that

CoffeeCake Posted August 31, 2020 Posted August 31, 2020 This may help: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/troubleshooting-row-size-too-large-errors-with-innodb/ Quote The root cause is that InnoDB has a maximum row size that is roughly equivalent to half of the value of the innodb_page_size system variable. See InnoDB Row Formats Overview: Maximum Row Size for more information.
alistairgd66 Posted October 11, 2020 Posted October 11, 2020 I think I have the same error during an upgrade. I don't know if support is closed on Sundays but I have had no response today and a hung upgrade in my browser and would appreciate any help.
bfarber Posted October 12, 2020 Posted October 12, 2020 We have seen this error come up quite a bit lately when people have InnoDB tables in compact row format, and can resolve the issue by changing the table to dynamic row format. https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/innodb-row-format.html
alistairgd66 Posted October 12, 2020 Posted October 12, 2020 Thanks for the response - a bit too technical for me. Support got back to me today and resolved the problem. If it's a common error, it would be good if it could be caught earlier in the process to avoid customers having stalled upgrades.
bfarber Posted October 13, 2020 Posted October 13, 2020 We have an improvement to the support tool and pre-upgrade checklist coming in 4.5.4 that will check for this. 🙂 This wasn't really a common thing in the past but we've seen it come up more recently so we're indeed looking to help catch the problem and direct users with regards to resolving it.

Some sort of script that will search out all tables with compact rows and alter the row would be nice.

That's included in 4.5.4 which was released yesterday 🙂 Perfect timing! I'll go update. Edit: Wait, no. I want something that will run a query to alter the table, not just tell me I have tables that need to be altered. Edited October 22, 2020 by CheersnGears
CheersnGears Posted October 22, 2020 Posted October 22, 2020 For those of you who have SSH access, I've created a bash script. You'll need your database name, database user, and database password. Unzip this file, edit the file to replace the database name (without quotes), username (with quotes) and password (with quotes) Upload it to a directory and run ./compact2dynamic.sh delete the file when it is finished. Some tables will take a significant amount of time to complete. My Search Index table took 20 minutes. After it is complete, run an Optimize Table on all tables (I use phpMyAdmin for this) and all should be well. This script worked just fine on my setup and removed the warning in the control panel about the compact row types. As always Caviar Empty... or whatever. compact2dynamic.zip Arahnid 1
Arahnid Posted October 22, 2020 Posted October 22, 2020 Will this command change row_format for all tables or only for those with row_format = compact? Otherwise, I have tables from other cms in my database...

If your other CMS can handle dynamic, there shouldn't be any harm in allowing those rows to go dynamic. Arahnid 1

Hi, does this change require a specific server I am told shared server cannot support this change, thanks

Hi, does this change require a specific server I am told shared server cannot support this change, thanks It should work on any server you have ssh access to, shared or not. You specify the database name in the file so it will only alter tables in that database and it will only all you to make changes if you have the username and password for your database ( which you must have to run IPS in the first place) tl/dr yes it will work on shared server as long as you can run the script.
Arahnid Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 And if I have tables of MyISAM and InnoDB types in my database, will the MyISAM types also affect the changes?
CheersnGears Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 Just now, Arahnid And if I have tables of MyISAM and InnoDB types in my database, will the MyISAM types also affect the changes? You should probably consider switching to innodb, but yes it would alter those also. bfarber 1

Such issue usually arise when your database table is format is COMPACT and you would want to convert it into DYNAMIC. The easy solution (if you're on a cPanel server) is to go to the phpMyAdmin --> select your forums database --> click on the SQL tab; and execute the following command: for @kosmit ALTER TABLE forums_forums ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC; for @alistairgd66 ALTER TABLE ibf_core_applications ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC; Then continue (click Retry button) with the upgrade process.
