After table creation, I'm trying to insert a row in to this table with more than 500 characters in all the columns. While doing so, mysql returns the following error, [Error Code: 1030, SQL State: HY000] Got error 139 from storage engine Upon searching, I found that there is a row length limitation of 8000 bytes in mysql. I wanted to know if this limit can be configured (by a parameter or even compiling the code) to the desired level. I see some links talking about innodb plugin where this is resolved but I couldn't get a clear idea on that. I'm trying this in windows. Any help on this is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Ashok. mysql innodb mysql-error-1030 share|improve this question edited Sep 4 '13 at 15:36 Will 96.3k41233337 asked Jan 14 '11 at 7:18 Ashok 612 Can you show your CREATE TABLE statement? –Riedsio Jan 14 '11 at 13:20 The create query is , CREATE TABLE testtext ( ID INTEGER , TEXT1 TEXT, TEXT2 TEXT, TEXT3 TEXT, TEXT4 TEXT, TEXT5 TEXT, TEXT6 TEXT, TEXT7 TEXT, TEXT8 TEXT, TEXT9 TEXT, TEXT10 TEXT, TEXT11 TEXT, TEXT12 TEXT, TEXT13 TEXT, TEXT14 TEXT, TEXT15 TEXT, TEXT16 TEXT, TEXT17 TEXT, TEXT18 TEXT, TEXT19 TEXT, TEXT20 TEXT, TEXT21 TEXT, PRIMARY KEY (ID) ) Engine=InnoDB; I had also tried using the ROW_FORMAT to set it as DYNAMIC. But that doesn't help either.. the table status still shows the table is in Compact format. –Ashok Jan 17 '11 at 7:13 add a comment| 3 Answers 3 active oldest votes up vote 2 down vote It looks like there are multiple possible solutions to this type of problem. I found this link provided both good information and some good tangible options: http://www.mysqlperformanceblog.com/2011/04/07/innodb-row-size-limitation/. However, if you know from the outset that you are going to be creating a struct
Updates: Status: Closed Impact on me: None Category:MySQL Server: InnoDB storage engine Severity:S2 (Serious) Version:4.1.11 OS:Mac OS X (MacOS X 10.3.9) Assigned to: Heikki Tuuri View Add Comment Files Developer Edit Submission View Progress Log Contributions [20 Apr 2005 17:07] Andrew Blee Description: Since upgrading MySQL from version 4.0.xx to 4.1.11, when trying to place data into a record it can fail with the error "#1030 - Got error 139 from storage engine". The problem appears to be if the data reaches a certain size. I first found the problem when trying to import a dump created by phpMyAdmin for one of my tables. I am using the "Standard" install package from MySQL Web site. Running Apple Mac/MacOS X 10.3.9. PHP is http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4688786/increasing-mysql-innodb-row-length-to-avoid-error-139 version 4.3.10 (client API is 3.23.49). I use phpMyAdmin to administer the DB, but I have run tests using PHP and the problem still occurs. I have also performed tests on my ISP's server (UNIX based) and the problem also occurs, they are using MySQL client API of 4.1.11. I still have access to a 4.0 server and can import the dump with no problems at all, even using a dump from MySQL 4.1.11 using the "backward compatibility" option in https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=10035 phpMyAdmin. How to repeat: Create an InnoDB table with 1 INT field and 11 TEXT fields. Create an index on the INT field of type "PRIMARY". In the first 10 text fields, enter as many "a" characters as phpMyAdmin will allow. This is 32000 characters in each field. Leave the last text field empty. Click "Go" to save the changes. This should save without any problems. Then copy/paste field 10 to field 11 and click "Go". This results in a "#1030 - Got error 139 from storage engine" error. If I remove the characters little by little at some point it will work, suggesting a size problem. Please let me know if you need any additional information. [21 Apr 2005 5:02] Heikki Tuuri Hi! In 4.1, to support at least 256-character UTF-8 column prefix indexes, InnoDB stores at least 768 bytes of each column 'internally' to the record. With 11 TEXT fields you will run over the 8000 byte record len limit. ./include/dict0mem.h:159:#define DICT_MAX_COL_PREFIX_LEN 768 I probably need to update the manual. Thank you, Heikki [21 Apr 2005 8:34] Andrew Blee Hi Heikki Many thanks for the reply. I read what you wrote several times, but a lot of it still went over my head, so apologies if what I write below is irrelevant :-) Is this 8000 byte limit you mention the same one mentioned in section 15.17 of the manual, i.e. because of the 16k database p

from storageengine" Filed under: InnoDB — Leave a comment September 18, 2011 The situation I was on a projet where we got a lot of "n:m" relation. ( i.e : employee => employeePublication => publication ) Like 1 weeks before going live they said : "remove them all, i want a textarea". Still no problem , i created a "text" field in the employee table and we are in business. The next day , they asked to do the same thing for "membership" , "mission" … etc. Well, i created more text field. Also, i need to created one text field for each language. Everthing was Ok until i import data. ERROR 1030 (HY000) at line 1: Got error 139 from storage engine I browsed the web to look why i got this and it's related to the maximum row length. It's always been like this, i saw some people talking about this in 2003. This is one limitation of innoDB. You can't have unlimited columns in your table. The theoratical limit it 1000 , but i got only 20. The problem In 2003 : The maximum row length, except BLOB and TEXT columns, is slightly less than half of a database page, that is, the maximum row length is about 8000 bytes. LONGBLOB and LONGTEXT columns are allowed to be < 4 GB, and the total row length, including also BLOB and TEXT columns, must be < 4 GB. Of a BLOB and TEXT column InnoDB stores the first 512 bytes in the row, and the rest to separate pages. Now : The maximum row length, except for variable-length columns (VARBINAR, VARCHAR, BLOB and TEXT), is slightly less than half of a database page. That is, the maximum row length is about 8000 bytes. LONGBLOB and LONGTEXTcolumns must be less than 4GB, and the total row length, including BLOB and TEXT columns, must be less than 4GB. If a row is less than half a page long, all of it is stored locally within the page. If it exceeds half a page, variable-length columns are chosen for external off-page storage until the row fits within half a page, as described inSection 13.2.4.4
