[OpenSIPS-Devel] rls_presentity table can not be created in MySQL 4.1.22

[Anca Vamanu]

Hi Andrew,

It seems that MySQL 1.4.22 does not accept a key component with length 
greater than 255 unless it is clearly specified in the index definition (

CONSTRAINT rls_presentity_idx UNIQUE (rlsubs_did(512), resource_uri)).

While looking at this I saw that the current length for the rlsubs_did ( 
512) is in fact too big. It is constructed out of 3 strings that have a 
maximum length of 64 separated by one character delimiter. Therefore, I 
will change the length of the filed to 255 and so fix the problem with 
MySQL 1.4.22.

Thanks and regards,
Anca Vamanu
