unsuccessfuly trying to stuff Amazon RDS host name into webissues install form

Submitted by danlen on 2013-06-24

I'm been running webissues-server-1.0.4 on an Amazon EC2 LAMP server for a number of months. I want to move it to an EC2 instance interfaced to an RDS server. The RDS servers have end point names longer than 40 characters. The install script seems to be truncating at 40 characters. I have also tried modifying the constant called NameMaxLength which looks to be the limiter, but it is not working.

Any suggestions on how I can run webissues on a data base running on an Amazon RDS server?

You also have to edit admin/setup/install.html.php and change the limits of text fields: array( 'size' => 40 ).
