Topic too long

[Lucarella]

If possible, I would also like to solve another error that my forum has had for a while...
Sometimes it happens that some users want to insert a very long post, but this error appears

Database Error: Data too long for column 'extra_1' at row 1
I have already converted the body column of the smf-messages table from text to mediumtext, now also to longtext, but the error always appears.

Do I have to change something else?

Thanks

Did you change your maximum allowed post size to zero in Admin -> Topics and Posts?

[Lucarella]

Yes of course... I put 0 to have no limits.

Sounds like a mod issue Stream.php and extra1 are not part of SMF default.

[Lucarella]

Yes, I think you are right... It is a paid mod but I can't get support because my subscription has expired...

[Steve]

Yes of course..

I didn't mean to insult your intelligence but we don't know unless we ask.

You could always uninstall it and see if if the problem goes away. If not, then you could re-install it.

Make backups first.

[Lucarella]

No question is stupid in cases like this, otherwise you risk just wasting time
Uninstalling the mod is the last thing I would like to do because with a similar mod by the same author I had problems with the installation and, if this one does it too, I have little time to fix everything. Maybe I will do it when I am freer if I don't find a different solution first.

Thanks

Well , most likely that mod is the cause, so not too many options.

Best to check the SERVER error log to get the details what code is causing the 500 error.
And if it is the mod code...

Have you tried finding which table the 'extra_1' column is in and converting that column to mediumtext or longtext?

Thanks @GL700Wing , you are a hero
I changed to longtext and it works fine now.

Thanks again for the help
