TASK DESCRIPTION I'm having trouble installing Wikibase according to the instructions at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikibase/Installation. The problem occurs during this step: php maintenance/update.php The failure appears to be a consequence of https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T99459. Here's the merge link: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/228756/ Apparently, upping the size to 310 characters (in Unicode) results in keys that are larger than the 767 byte limit in MySQL. The update.php script now fails with this error: Error: 1071 Specified key was too long; max key length is 767 bytes (127.0.0.1:3306) If I manually hack the sizes back to 255 and try again, the install process appears to be successful. I was able to reproduce the problem when deploying on both Linux and MacOS. Note that I am trying to set up a project that is powered by Wikibase along the lines of http://www.eagle-network.eu/wiki/index.php/Main_Page rather than work with the Wikidata instance.
