Issue #324: MySQL Setup Error - "Function or expression 'AUTO_INCREMENT' cannot be used in the CHECK clause of `group_id` (conservancy/kallithea)

Wed Jun 20 21:28:52 UTC 2018

Hi Renato,

I tested installing Kallithea 0.3.5 with MariaDB on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS x86_64 server, it did throw a trace similar to yours when I first tried:

paster setup-db my.ini

but I was able to work around it by installing this dependency:

sudo apt-get install python-mysqldb

Hope it helps,

Mat

Renato Rosa:

Hi Everybody.

I just installed `Kallithea` a few days ago and I have finally ended my crusade for a fully fledged git web server for personal projects. Thanks everybody for the effort in (totally) open sourcing this piece of software.

However, I am currently using SQLite and it is hanging up when under a high load, so I am trying to setup a fresh install with MySQL backend, and I am getting the following error when I run `$paster setub-db`:

```
sqlalchemy.exc.InternalError: (InternalError) (1901, u"Function or expression 'AUTO_INCREMENT' cannot be used in the CHECK clause of `group_id`") '
CREATE TABLE groups (
    group_id INTEGER NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
    group_name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
    group_parent_id INTEGER,
    group_description VARCHAR(10000),
    enable_locking BOOL NOT NULL,
    user_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
    created_on DATETIME NOT NULL,
    PRIMARY KEY (group_id),
    UNIQUE (group_name, group_parent_id),
    CHECK (group_id != group_parent_id),
    UNIQUE (group_id),
    UNIQUE (group_name),
    FOREIGN KEY(group_parent_id) REFERENCES groups (group_id),
    CHECK (enable_locking IN (0, 1)),
    FOREIGN KEY(user_id) REFERENCES users (user_id) )ENGINE=InnoDB CHARSET=utf8 ' {} ```

Actually, before the above error, I get the following Traceback:

```

I installed `Kallithea 0.3.5` with `pip2 install kallithea` on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (xenial), x86_64 and am trying to run it with `MariaDB 10.2.15`.

I have little experience with Python and I even tried to understand the DB schema, having located the groups table function under `kallithea/lib/dbmigrate/schema`, but it seems to be ok, as it runs just fine with SQLite.

I also tried running `grate migrate kallithea.model.meta:Base.metadata "sqlite:///kallithea.db" "mysql+pymysql://localhost/kallithea"`, to no avail.

I consider this a bug, as MySQL is supposed to be supported, but apart from setup instructions missing crucial information (there is already an issue filed for that), it seems that setup-db is trying an illegal SQL statement.

I would really appreciate if anybody could point me in the right direction here.

Kind regards,

Renato.
