<![CDATA[Kanboard Unable to run SQL migrations]]>Hi All,

I've just recently installed Kanboard and tried to run it - however, I get the following error:
Internal Error: Unable to run SQL migrations: Running migration \Schema\version_129, SQLSTATE[42000]: Syntax error or access violation: 1170 BLOB/TEXT column 'name' used in key specification without a key length (You may have to fix it manually)

Can anyone help with what this means and what I need to do?

Is this a new installation?

From what I understand, they didn't name the constraints properly, so you have to figure the name and drop them. For Cloudron:

  • Take a snapshot of the app by clicking the Create backup button in the backup dialog of the app. This way if you do something wrong, you can restore it.
  • Open a web terminal and click the MySQL button. This gives you a connection to the database
  • show create table projects; This should give you name of the unique key contraints like name_3 and name_4.
  • Then:
    ALTER TABLE `projects` DROP INDEX `name_3`
    ALTER TABLE `projects` DROP INDEX `name_4`
