generated column 'variant_listing_config' in table 'product'

[rawdlite]

hi,

first off thank you a lot for providing this script.
I want to use it to sync a production instance with a development instance under dockware.

SW6 is 6.4.17.2
Source DB is mysqld Ver 10.3.37-MariaDB-0ubuntu0.20.04.1, mysqldump Ver 10.19 Distrib 10.3.37-MariaDB
Target DB is mysqld Ver 5.7.40-0ubuntu0.18.04.1. (dockware)
Dump was created with --gdpr option.
On import i get error:
The value specified for generated column 'variant_listing_config' in table 'product' is not allowed

On removing the product table inserts from the dump, the import finished without errors.
Yet users table was empty (had to create new admin user on console)

I suspect MariadDB is not supported by this script?
MariaDB 10.3.22 or higher is officially supported by shopware, so it should be 'Standard DB' ?

Could we extend script to write product table into temporary table without column variant_listing_config and dump that table instead? Or maybe a view?

Or maybe mysqldump version is to blame?

Please advise howto proceed.

TIA

This is related to an incompatibility between MariaDB and MySQL for generated columns, see the MySQL issue for that. I recommend not switching between the two, if possible.

You could also try generating the dump with mysqldump from MySQL instead of MariaDB's mysqldump.

Unfortunately, hard to fix on our side.

Thank you for your prompt reply.

That would have been great to have known before. Switching to another DB Engine on production without being able to do a proper dump will be tricky.

will try that. Thanks.
