Mantis Bug Tracker - Forums

Since the introduction of multiline text fields, we were getting errors when updating an issue that has such a field. This is caused by the fact that Mantis stores its history in mantis_bug_history_table, and the fields old_value and new_value are limited to 255 characters.
'Data too long for column 'new_value' at row 1'

The workaround for now is that I substr the values in history_api.php

I fixed this some days ago.
The fix will be part of next version 2.13.0 https://mantisbt.org/bugs/view.php?id=24056

I see, thanks.
