title: SugarCRM - Database Failure - Row Size Too Large?
body: <p>I've been building a custom module for sugarCRM and i'm running into some issue's, when installing the module i'm met with 'Database failure. Please refer to sugarcrm.log for details.' </p>
  
  <p>Upon checking the log file, i can find the error is this:</p>
  
  <p>"MySQL error 1118: Row size too large. The maximum row size for the used table type, not counting BLOBs, is 65535. You have to change some columns to TEXT or BLOBs
  01/03/14"</p>
  
  <p>Whilst my module does have alot of fields, is there anyway i could get around this? Seems like sugar doesn't give me options for varchar/text etc when creating fields.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
