Re: [SQL] index row size 2728 exceeds btree maximum, 2713

Hi,

One of the columns in primary key is of type "TEXT". I am able to insert
with small data, but for around 3000 characters it's failing. How to handle
that?

Thanks
Dinesh Pandey

Hi,

The issue looks like your Index width exceeds the maximum width
of the index key limit, Please review the keys used in the index.

TABLE

-----------+-----------------------+-----------

Column | Type

-----------+-----------------------+-----------

scan_id | bigint

host_ip | character varying(15)

port_num | integer

plugin_id | integer

severity | character varying(50)

data | text

Indexes:

"pk_scanned_port_info" PRIMARY KEY, btree (scan_id, host_ip, port_num,
plugin_id, severity, data)

On inserting record I am getting this error "index row size 2728 exceeds
btree maximum, 2713"

How to solve this problem?
