Thanks for the immediate reply. What exactly do you mean my "preference name". 
I have just followed the tutorial to build a custom portal. I have not changed 
anything. (??) Where can I check for that name?

Subject: [jira] Updated: (JS2-1025) Mysql maven2 build error - UNIQUE INDEX key 
too long


     [

 ]

Ate Douma updated JS2-1025:
---------------------------

    Priority: Minor  (was: Major)

The problem really is with MySQL, this is not a Jetspeed bug.
The unique index cannot be made shorter without a complete object remodelling, 
we need all these columns in the index as it represent a *logical* model 
constraints.
The fact you're overrunning the *mysql* limit of 1000 bytes key length 
indicates you most likely are using an extremely long preference name.
I suggest trying to reduce your preference name length as easiest solution here.

> While building a custom j2.2 portal I got the following error:
> Embedded error: Failed to execute:   CREATE UNIQUE INDEX 
> UIX_PORTLET_PREFERENCE
> ON PORTLET_PREFERENCE (DTYPE, APPLICATION_NAME, PORTLET_NAME, ENTITY_ID,

> Specified key was too long; max key length is 1000 bytes
> [INFO]

> I think that the:
> CREATE UNIQUE INDEX UIX_PORTLET_PREFERENCE ON
> PORTLET_PREFERENCE (DTYPE, APPLICATION_NAME, PORTLET_NAME, ENTITY_ID, 
> USER_NAME, NAME)
> query needs to be replaced with a shorter index e.g. (DTYPE, 
> APPLICATION_NAME, PORTLET_NAME) but I do not know about side effects.
> Please provide fix and deploy also to jars as people cannot build custom 
> portals with j2.2 / mysql
