I'm trying to import an sql file to a new MySQL database, but get error:

ERROR 1265 (01000) at line 65: Data truncated for column 'for_PlayerPlayerActions' at row 1

I have zero MySQL knowledge to be honest.

I've been using the url https://bitbucket.org/Maverick_of_UC/hlstatsx-community-edition/wiki/Install which allows to me to run a stats site for a gaming server. I had it all running on a Windows 2003 (MySQL & IIS) server for years, but have rebuilt the server on Windows 2012R2 and I can't run the install.sql file against the database called hlstatsx.

Log into MySQL

mysql> create database hlstatsx;

Then in a command prompt:

C:hlstatsxsql>mysql -uroot -p hlstatsx < install.sql

Enter password: *********

ERROR 1265 (01000) at line 65: Data truncated for column 

'for_PlayerPlayerActions' at row 1

if I open install.sql in Notepad++:

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `hlstats_Actions` (

`id` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,

`game` varchar(32) NOT NULL default 'valve',

`code` varchar(64) NOT NULL default '',

`reward_player` int(11) NOT NULL default '10',

`reward_team` int(11) NOT NULL default '0',

`team` varchar(64) NOT NULL default '',

`description` varchar(128) default NULL,

`for_PlayerActions` enum('0','1') NOT NULL default '0',

`for_PlayerPlayerActions` enum('0','1') NOT NULL default '0',

`for_TeamActions` enum('0','1') NOT NULL default '0',

`for_WorldActions` enum('0','1') NOT NULL default '0',

`count` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',

PRIMARY KEY  (`id`),

UNIQUE KEY `gamecode` (`code`,`game`,`team`),

KEY `code` (`code`)

) ENGINE=MyISAM  DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

-- Dumping data for table `hlstats_Actions`

and go to line 65 I see:

INSERT INTO `hlstats_Actions` (`game`, `code`, `reward_player`, `reward_team`, `team`, `description`, `for_PlayerActions`, `for_PlayerPlayerActions`, `for_TeamActions`, `for_WorldActions`) VALUES

('tf', 'flagevent_defended', 1, 0, '', 'Defended the flag', '1', '', '', ''),

('tf', 'flagevent_captured', 5, 1, '', 'Captured the flag', '1', '', '', ''),

('tf', 'flagevent_dropped', -2, 0, '', 'Dropped the flag (while alive)', '1', '', '', ''),

...

I got this all working years ago but took no notes, any ideas?

Thanks

Based on your table definition:

`for_PlayerPlayerActions` enum('0','1') NOT NULL default '0',

the column definition requires a value for that column and the data for that column you are attempting to load is a null/empty string.

Notice:

('tf', 'flagevent_defended', 1, 0, '', 'Defended the flag', '1', '', '', ''),

All those '' are empty strings/NULL and thus are outside the allowable range of the enum, which must be '0' or '1'.

It looks like you actually have a number of columns with the same problem. You can get around this problem in loading these, to remove the NOT NULL definition for the columns and rerun your sql script.

Afterwards, update all the NULL values for the columns in this table to 0 and then change the structure back and you should be fine with any dumps and loads in the future.

This likely occurred because NULLs were allowed for these columns at some point, or the table definition was added after rows existed prior to those columns being added.
