Im trying to set up a primary key of server(text), date (date), hour
(small int) but when i try to include the server field in the key it
replies with
ALTER TABLE `exim` DROP PRIMARY KEY ,
ADD PRIMARY KEY ( `date` , `hour` , `server` )
#1170 - BLOB/TEXT column 'server' used in key specification without a
key length
i have googled, but not much is relevant to my example i dont think..
CREATE TABLE `exim` (
`date` date NOT NULL default '0000-00-00',
`server` longtext NOT NULL,
`hour` tinyint(4) NOT NULL default '0',
`count` smallint(6) NOT NULL default '0',
PRIMARY KEY (`date`,`hour`),
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 COMMENT='exim realtime stats';
thanks
