    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-5426?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13930695#comment-13930695 ] 

Adrian Crum commented on OFBIZ-5426:
------------------------------------

The problem is in the entity model. An email address should not be used in the primary key - mainly because an email address is case-insensitive. A better design would be to use the email address contact mechanism ID in the primary key.

> Due to revision 1529838, the length of data type "email" was increased from 254 to 320. But It makes the ofbiz failed to create tables such as "PRODUCT_PROMO_CODE_EMAIL" which includes an email fields as its primary key.
> The database is mysql, innodb engine and utf8 charset. The error msg:
> ERROR 1071 (42000): Specified key was too long; max key length is 767 bytes.
> I suggest to revert change of r1529838.
