Hello Elke,
 You're right, on 7.6.0.37 it works correctly.

Thank you, Dusan

Hi,

here the explanation.
- In case of a join resultrows are physically build.
- The maximum length of physical rows in version 7.6 is 8088.
- Because of your value (table1-column, table2-column) an intermediate resultrow would be build where both columns are in and the function can be used for.

As 4096 byte * 2 is longer than 8088, this intermediate resultrow causes the trouble although the final result would not exceed the maximum length.

In newer 7.6-version than you use, a new join-handling is implemented, that these intermediate resultrows do not exist in a physically stored form --> your problem would not arise any more.

Please check, if you can switch to the newest available version.

Subject: [LIKELY JUNK]Row too long (-2000)

Hello
I'm using MaxDb 7.6.0.34 on WinXp SP2.

My DB schema is :
CREATE TABLE logTb
(
   "ID"                Integer              NOT NULL
DEFAULT SERIAL (1),
   "TSTAMP"            Timestamp            NOT NULL
DEFAULT TIMESTAMP,
   "TYPE"              Integer              NOT NULL    DEFAULT 1,
   "SENDER_ADDRESS"    Varchar (255) ASCII  NOT NULL    DEFAULT '',
   "RECEIVER_ADDRESS"  Varchar (255) ASCII  NOT NULL    DEFAULT '',
   PRIMARY KEY ("ID")
)
//
CREATE TABLE inTb
(
   "ID"               Integer              NOT NULL  DEFAULT
SERIAL (1),
   "TSTAMP"           Timestamp            NOT NULL  DEFAULT
TIMESTAMP,
   "LOGTB_ID"         Integer              NOT NULL  DEFAULT -1,
   "DATA"             Varchar (4096) BYTE  NOT NULL,
   PRIMARY KEY ("ID"),
   FOREIGN KEY FK_LOGTB_ID ("LOGTB_ID") REFERENCES
     logTb (Id) ON DELETE  SET DEFAULT
)
//
CREATE TABLE outTb
(
   "ID"               Integer              NOT NULL  DEFAULT
SERIAL (1),
   "TSTAMP"           Timestamp            NOT NULL  DEFAULT
TIMESTAMP,
   "LOGTB_ID"         Integer              NOT NULL  DEFAULT -1,
   "DATA"             Varchar (4096) BYTE  NOT NULL,
   PRIMARY KEY ("ID"),
   FOREIGN KEY FK_LOGTB_ID ("LOGTB_ID") REFERENCES
     logTb (Id) ON DELETE  SET DEFAULT
)

when I do:

select
   logTb.Id,
   Value (inTb.Data, outTb.Data) as DataMsg
 from logTb
   left join inTb on logTb.Id = inTb.LogTb_Id
   left join outTb on logTb.Id = outTb.LogTb_Id

Syntax error or access violation;-2000 POS(8214) Row too long

It seems that sql parser sums length of all columns listed in the
statement.
(Integer + Varchar (4096) BYTE + Varchar (4096) BYTE) > 8088
bytes (max.
length of a table row)
But when I use Value (Col1, Col2), then maximal length of
this column is
max of Col1 and Col2 length.

The same is when I do:

select
   logTb.Id,
   Value (Substr (inTb.Data, 1, 10), Substr (outTb.Data, 1,
10)) as DataMsg
 from logTb
   left join inTb on logTb.Id = inTb.LogTb_Id
   left join outTb on logTb.Id = outTb.LogTb_Id

Length of Substr (Column, 1, n) is n but not Length of Column type.

Is there any way how to restrict length of output columns ???


Thank you very much for support.
   Regards, Dusan
