Title: Version 5.11.5 and Database errors Last modified: September 10, 2020 --- # Version 5.11.5 and Database errors * Resolved [dbyolton](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dbyolton/) * (@dbyolton) * [5 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/version-5-11-5-and-database-errors/) * Having issues with the latest MEC Lite update, 5.11.5. It works fine on my live site, but when I have it on my desktop staging site in debug mode, I see lots of errors. * After the upgrade, I first see: WordPress database error:[Specified key was too long max key length is 767 bytes] ALTER TABLE ‘wp_mec_users’ ADD PRIMARY KEY (‘id’), AND UNIQUE KEY ’email’ (’email’); * WordPress database error: [Incorrect table definition; there can only be one auto column and it must be defined as a key] ALTER TABLE ‘wp_mec_users’ MODIFY‘ id’ int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT; * in the upper left hand corner of the site. * then lots of junk with each shortcut. * I’m an Elementor users, which is having it’s own problems, but I don’t think this is related. * Looking for similar problems, there was a mention of database unicode methods, but I haven’t changed anything but MEC lite. * == Server Environment == Operating System: Darwin Software: Apache/2.4.37 (Unix) OpenSSL/1.0.2q PHP/7.3.1 mod_perl/2.0.8-dev Perl/v5.16.3 MySQL version: Source distribution v5.6.41-84.1 PHP Version: 7.3.1 PHP Max Input Vars: 1000 PHP Max Post Size: 512M GD Installed: Yes ZIP Installed: Yes Write Permissions: All right Elementor Library: Connected * == WordPress Environment == Version: 5.5.1 Site URL: [https://www.august30.dev.cc](https://www.august30.dev.cc) Home URL: [https://www.august30.dev.cc](https://www.august30.dev.cc) WP Multisite: No Max Upload Size: 512 MB Memory limit: 1024M Permalink Structure: /%postname%/ Language: en-US Timezone: America/New_York Debug Mode: Active * == Theme == Name: Sydney Pro Child Version: 1.0 Author: aThemes Child Theme: Yes Parent Theme Name: Sydney Pro Parent Theme Version: 2.0.22 Parent Theme Author: aThemes * == User == Role: administrator WP Profile lang: en_US User Agent: Mozilla/5.0( Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_6) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/ 13.1.2 Safari/605.1.15 * == Active Plugins == Analytify – Google Analytics Dashboard Version: 3.1.4 Author: Analytify * Analytify Email Notifications Version: 1.3.1 Author: Adnan * Analytify Pro Version: 2.2.1 Author: WPBrigade * Elementor Version: 3.0.3 Author: Elementor.com * Elementor Pro Version: 3.0.1 Author: Elementor.com * Header and Footer Scripts Version: 2.2.1 Author: Digital Liberation * Modern Events Calendar Lite Version: 5.11.5 Author: Webnus * Redirection Version: 4.8 Author: John Godley * Simple Yearly Archive Version: 2.1.2 Author: Oliver Schlöbe * Smash Balloon Instagram Feed Version: 2.4.6 Author: Smash Balloon * Yoast SEO Version: 14.8.1 Author: Team Yoast Viewing 3 replies - 1 through 3 (of 3 total) * Thread Starter [dbyolton](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dbyolton/) * (@dbyolton) * [5 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/version-5-11-5-and-database-errors/#post-13390702) * Solved. I had needed to modify the render.php for the lists view to remove the excerpt ellipsis. (I wish this was configurable in the UI.) * The file was under my child theme, and the 5.11.5 updated needed me to copy the current render.php over from the plugin to the child theme location, and have the ellipsis removed on the new file. * [bjf2000](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bjf2000/) * (@bjf2000) * [5 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/version-5-11-5-and-database-errors/#post-13395797) * Based on a timestamp in a log, this might have begun with 5.11.0 on Sep 2. * We also use Elementor but hadn’t updated to the problematic v3 at the time of the errors. * Since I wouldn’t have any idea what to do with render.php and am unclear what it’s doing in your child theme (btw, we didn’t even have a child theme when this problem started), I’ll not go down that path to try to solve this. * Probably two of us posting about it will be enough to get them to fix it themselves in an upcoming version. * Plugin Contributor [webnus](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webnus/) * (@webnus) * [5 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/version-5-11-5-and-database-errors/#post-13404887) * Hi All, * Sorry for the delay in response and thank you for notifying us, * There is nothing to worry about., we are aware of the issue and we are working on it, * Best Regards Viewing 3 replies - 1 through 3 (of 3 total) The topic ‘Version 5.11.5 and Database errors’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/modern-events-calendar-lite_e2f4ff. svg) * [Modern Events Calendar Lite](https://wordpress.org/plugins/modern-events-calendar-lite/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/modern-events-calendar-lite/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/modern-events-calendar-lite/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/modern-events-calendar-lite/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/modern-events-calendar-lite/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/modern-events-calendar-lite/reviews/) * 3 replies * 3 participants * Last reply from: [webnus](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webnus/) * Last activity: [5 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/version-5-11-5-and-database-errors/#post-13404887) * Status: resolved
