Bug #4128
closedField creation limit due to column size limits
Description
Currently you can only create roughly 100 fields due to _comprofiler MYSQL column size limits. Proposed workaround below should be officially implemented to end this issue for good.
It's beginning to affect far too many users for a workaround to be viable. Changing from varchar will slightly make queries slower, but probably isn't noticeable.

I believe that a simple ALTER to move the storage engine from MyISAM to InnoDB removes that constraint completely.
But it should not be done on CB update, it could be done in Tools.

Update CB DB tools check to check if the CB tables engine matches _users. This should be a forward upgrade only from XYZ to innodb.

- Status changed from Assigned to Resolved
- % Done changed from 70 to 100
Proper upgrade to InnoDB is now possible. This should remove the column size limits for most.
