4.2: Error in db_update_field_definition : ERROR: value too long for type character varying(250) -> BAILING OUT

Hi Benjamin,

I do not know if this problem still occurs on the latest 4.2 build (but I was just restestin a two weeks old Jahia 4.2 DB and when restarting my server, the first access to a given template was each time thowing an exception (+ an error on the page). The second access to the same page works fine.

So quite strange as it seems to me my DB was ok before going to holidays. I will try to migrate my content to the latest 4.2 builds... but perhpas this problem only occurs after reboot... So I still enter a JIRA for it.
