[Building Sakai] evals tool and MySQL

[Steve Swinsburg]

Hi all,

Is anyone running the Evaluations tool [1] under MySQL (5.1.40)? I'm having hard time starting up because of the keys being too long for MySQL:

Unsuccessful schema statement: create table EVAL_ASSIGN_USER (ID bigint not null auto_increment, EID varchar(255), LAST_MODIFIED datetime not null, OWNER varchar(255) not null, USER_ID varchar(255) not null, GROUP_ID varchar(255) not null, ASSIGN_TYPE varchar(255) not null, ASSIGN_STATUS varchar(255) not null, LIST_ORDER integer not null, ASSIGN_GROUP_ID bigint, EVALUATION_FK bigint not null, primary key (ID), unique (USER_ID, GROUP_ID, ASSIGN_TYPE, EVALUATION_FK))
com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLSyntaxErrorException: Specified key was too long; max key length is 1000 bytes

Unsuccessful schema statement: create table EVAL_RESPONSE (ID bigint not null auto_increment, LAST_MODIFIED datetime not null, OWNER varchar(255) not null, GROUP_ID varchar(255) not null, START_TIME datetime not null, COMMENT_RESPONSE text, SELECTIONS_CODE text, END_TIME datetime, EVALUATION_FK bigint not null, primary key (ID), unique (OWNER, GROUP_ID, EVALUATION_FK))
com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLSyntaxErrorException: Specified key was too long; max key length is 1000 bytes

Anyone addressed this?

Thanks,
Steve
