MySQL DB initialization fails with "Specified key was too long" errors

When finishing the Deployment Wizard, you might see an error saying "Unable to upgrade database" when using a MySQL DB.

Some older versions of MySQL default to using the "utf8mb4" charset, which only support VARCHARs of max size 191.
Unimus requires multiple DB columns to be VARCHAR(255).

You can solve this by creating your database using the "utf8" charset:

Code Block
languagetext
CREATE DATABASE `dbname` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8;
 or
CREATE DATABASE dbname CHARACTER SET utf8;

TODO

  •  TODO Tomas Kirnak - Port 8085 not free - how to find out and how to change port
  •  TODO Tomas Kirnak - Unimus running as a service refuses to start - run Unimus manually to get a more detailed error report
