Error 1406

[James Sherwood]

Hello,

I dumped a database from our 4.0 server to a .sql file.

When I try to input it back into the new 5.0 database, it gives me this error (1406 data
too long for column)

This works fine on 4.0 but will not work on 5.0.

I also tried modifying the mediumtext to longtext in the dumpfile but it produces a column
with a -1 size for some reason.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
James
