What's 'data too long for column' error in sql?

Example:

INSERT INTO users (name) VALUES ('A very very very long name that exceeds the column limit');

The data you're trying to insert is too long for the column's defined type or length.

Solution:

Ensure that the data you're inserting fits within the column's constraints. Alternatively, consider modifying the table schema to accommodate longer data.


INSERT INTO users (name) VALUES ('Shorter Name');
