• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

mysql truncating fields?

michaellunsford

Regular Pleskian
I have a WYSIWYG HTML editor that allows users to edit their little page online. they edit the page and it's happy. it looks good. and it stays for a day or two.

but then, without warning, you go to their page one day, and the page's content has been truncated. I have had to pull database backups to fix this in the past, but I really want to know what is causing it?

typically the page is not edited anywhere, it just gets cut. Here's the table description:

keyfield int(11) PRI NULL auto_increment
page varchar(64)
content text

the part that's being truncated is the "content" field. The one that was truncated is 7,840 in length after being truncated, but probably no longer than 10,000 before. The longest `content` record is 65,542 in length (is there a limit? 65,536 or something?)

I have just yum updated mysql to 4.1.20 from 4.1.18 (in the hopes that mysql may have fixed something that caused this?)

Is plesk's cron scanning or messing with mysql at all? Could this be the root cause? Also, Is there a mysql log that can tell me when a database has been modified, scanned, or otherwise touched and by what login?
