I'm using 2.6.0RC11 with a Postgres 7.3.4 database.
On a posting with a rather long Subject, I get (SQL Error Log):

I manually changed the action column type from char varying(255) to text and retried. Worked.
Is this the real problem? If so, how do I make the change persistent (want action column type to stay the same when I upgrade FUDforum).
