improve error message "key size too big for index" --------------------------------------------------
Key: CORE-6354 URL: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-6354 Project: Firebird Core Issue Type: Improvement Components: Engine Reporter: Karol Bieniaszewski Priority: Minor Now when we try to create index on big e.g. VARCHAR(1000) field we got an error "key size too big for index XXX". But this is not definitly true as it depend on page size. Will be good if the message will be variable. It should depend of database page size. As you know max index size depend on page size. This info should be included into error message. If database page size is lower then FB max page size it should contain info like: "key size too big for index XXX. Increase database page size to support bigger key sizes." Now many users of Firebird use some tools which have default 4K page size. And they think that FB is so limited and they choose different database for use becaouse of such simple thing. I know presonally 2 persons which was affected by this and i see also sample in FB tracker CORE-2201 - "Vrinda Nayak 15/Nov/17 04:29 PM" -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira Firebird-Devel mailing list, web interface at https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/firebird-devel
