Could not add entry to USB page

[Ben Chociej]

Attempted to add the following line to https://www.smartmontools.org/wiki/Supported_USB-Devices :

|| Rosewill RX234 SATA III USB 3.0 docking station || JMicron || 0x152d:0x2578 || JMicron Technology Corp. / JMicron USA Technology Corp. USB to SATA bridge || -d sat || Linux 4.19 || bchociej || ||

Upon either submitting or attempting to review changes, the following error was displayed:

Trac detected an internal error:
DataError: (1406, "Data too long for column 'request' at row 1")

Looks like the page reached some size limit.

I removed some dead links which freed ~3KB. Please retry your additions.

Please leave the ticket open as a reminder. We will either increase the limit or split the page.

[Pierre Fagrell]

This problem is back. I tried to add an entry to the USB page and get the DataError.

[Steve Bonds]

I hit the same error also. This error appears to be passed back from the underlying MySQL database.

Trimming down some of the longer comments would allow me to make my entry, but as a new user, I'm not a good judge of what can/should be trimmed or if it would be better to simply allow the database to accept the larger page.

I've elected not to make my entry, but instead I'll save it here for later when this issue is resolved:

The size limit is 82111+N bytes for some small N > 0.

I removed or shortened some comments and moved the "Unsupported Devices" table to a new page. This freed ~10KB.

[Christian Franke]

The "Supported Devices" page was split into two about one year ago. There is now ~40KB or more free space on each page.

[Christian Franke]

Fixed by splitting the page into three.
