We recently come across below database error when working with an application.
java.sql.SQLException: Length of LOB data (65594) to be replicated exceeds configured maximum 65536. Use the stored procedure sp_configure to increase the configured maximum value for max text repl size option, which defaults to 65536.
The maximum value for max text repl size defaults to 65536. We get this error when a truncation data size for any of the replicated text column exceeds the limit.
To check the current max text replication size run below command.
USE <DB Name>;
GO
EXEC sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1 ;
RECONFIGURE ;
GO
EXEC sp_configure 'max text repl size';
GO
Output:-
name minimum
maximum config_value run_value
max text repl size (B) -1
2147483647 65536 65536
You can set the value to maximum by running below command.
RECONFIGURE ;
GO
EXEC sp_configure 'max text repl size', -1 ;
GO
RECONFIGURE;
GO
Note that -1 indicates that there is no limit set for 'max text repl size' other than
imposed by the data type.
You can do the same using SSMS
- Open SSMS and connect to Server/instance
- Right-click on the server/instance name and choose properties
- Select “Advanced” options on the properties page.
- Under “Miscellaneous”
header you will see the current
value of
“Max text replication Size”. - Change the default value from 65536 to -1 or 2147483647 (depending on the SQLserver) and press OK.
