Re: ATG 2006.3 with MySQL 5.x on Linux

Eek - your MySQL should be setup to use INNODB by default. You should also be using UTF8 for everything when possible. If you load Latin1 data into a UTF8 table, and any of the characters are invalid UTF8 codepoints (i.e. almost anything over 127 that isn't encoded properly for UTF8) will give you that same 'too long' error, even if the data isn't too long.
