[Gusdev-rad-issues] InsertSequenceOntology

[Juan C. P. <bi...@ge...>]

In step 6 of loading the bootstrap data for RAD I've manually downloaded the
so.definition file from song.sourceforge.  The CVS site is not working for
me on any machine, when I try logging in, it asks for a password, I press
return and it just hangs until it eventually times out and aborts the
connection attempt.  The so.definition file is version 1.42.  When I attempt
to load the data using GUS::Supported::Plugin::InsertSequenceOntology I get:

DBD::Oracle::st execute failed: ORA-12899: value too large for column
"SRES"."SEQUENCEONTOLOGY"."DEFINITION" (actual: 1228, maximum: 1000) (DBD
ERROR: error possibly near <*> indicator at char 328 in '

I got this error earlier and found that, in fact, the definition file did
have entries that were too large.  Should I extend the size of the field? Or
use the lighter sofa.definitions file? Or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks!

Juan
