执行以下命令时:
ALTER TABLE `mytable` ADD UNIQUE (
`column1` ,
`column2`
);
我得到了这个错误信息:
#1071 - Specified key was too long; max key length is 767 bytes
columnn1和column2的信息:
column1 varchar(20) utf8_general_ci
column2 varchar(500) utf8_general_ci
我认为varchar(20)只需要21个字节,而varchar(500)只需要501个字节。所以总字节数是522,小于767。为什么我得到了错误消息?
#1071 - Specified key was too long; max key length is 767 bytes
Laravel框架解决方案
根据Laravel 5.4。*文档;你必须在app/Providers/AppServiceProvider.php文件的引导方法中设置默认字符串长度,如下所示:
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
public function boot()
{
Schema::defaultStringLength(191);
}
Laravel 5.4对这个修复的解释。*文档:
Laravel uses the utf8mb4 character set by default, which includes support for storing "emojis" in the database. If you are running a version of MySQL older than the 5.7.7 release or MariaDB older than the 10.2.2 release, you may need to manually configure the default string length generated by migrations in order for MySQL to create indexes for them. You may configure this by calling the Schema::defaultStringLength method within your AppServiceProvider.
Alternatively, you may enable the innodb_large_prefix option for your
database. Refer to your database's documentation for instructions on
how to properly enable this option.
