Error description
The ATTRVALDESC.VALUE field is defined as VARCHAR(254). Attempting to load more than 254 characters to that column results in a SQL exception in the DataLoad utility during the IdResolver phase.
Local fix
Problem summary
USERS AFFECTED: WebSphere Commerce v7.0 users trying to load to the ATTRVALDESC table with values longer than 254 characters. PROBLEM ABSTRACT: Attempting to load more than 254 characters into the VALUE column of the ATTRVALDESC.VALUE table will cause a failure in the DataLoad utility during the IdResolver phase, due to an SQL exception. BUSINESS IMPACT: Unable to load attribute data through the DataLoad utility in some cases. RECOMMENDATION: The input value is now truncated to 254 bytes to be populated in the ATTRVALDESC.VALUE field, while the full value (to a maximum of 2000 bytes) is kept in the ATTRVALDESC.STRINGVALUE field.
Problem conclusion
The IdResolver function now truncates the VALUE to 254 bytes before resolving it. ------------------------------------------------------------- The latest available maintenance information can be obtained from the Recommended Fixes for WebSphere Commerce technote: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=3046&uid=swg21261296
