PostgreSQL 42622

NAME TOO LONG occurs when a database object name exceeds the maximum length limit of 63 characters. This error prevents the creation of objects with names that are too long.

How It Affects Your App

PostgreSQL 42622 NAME TOO LONG can have a significant impact on an application. It indicates that the name of an object is too long and exceeds the maximum length allowed by PostgreSQL. This can prevent the application from creating the object, or cause errors when trying to access it. It can also lead to unexpected behavior in the application, as the object may not be created or accessed as expected. In some cases, it can even cause the application to crash. Therefore, it is important to ensure that all object names are within the maximum length allowed by PostgreSQL.
