I think in order to fully understand you should provide more details. Is this task a custom task? (e.g. removes an existing file and downloads a newer version). The error might also appear when the file to delete is not found. Since this is not always happening, I suspect it is not related to Jenkins... (more) |

Also, can you provide more information about "run out of memory"? Is it the stack (too much recursion?) or another type of memory? (more) |

Can you please post the relevant parts of your procedure? As written, this looks like an XY problem (i.e. the issue seems to be in the way the procedure is written not the VARCHAR length). (more) |

I have reported the issue on GitHub (thanks Monica for moving it to the right place, now I know that qpixel is the actual project :) ): https://github.com/codidact/qpixel/issues/268 (more) |

@Charlie Brumbaugh Yes, that means that the index contains that column + columns in the PK. That would explain the second point which actually seems to be the only point: all indexes will only cover the column in the PK. (more) |

@FractionalRadix Yes, [binding] is very general, but it is what I heard being used for frameworks such a Windows Forms. WPF, Angular and Xamarin. Maybe something like [android-viewbinding] is more appropriate, but I am not sure if this is what you are using (never programmed directly with Java in And... (more) |

I have also added [binding] tag as the concept seems to be used (bind view to viewmodel). Very good question btw. (more) |

Not sure, but shrink gets the database to 4GB and reindexing gets it to about ~5GB. (more) |

@Moshi That's a good idea. I will raise an issue @ GitHub repo. Thanks. (more) |

On-topic now includes a quick introduction for those in a hurry (thanks to [this suggestion](https://software.codidact.com/questions/278648#answer-278666)).

I understand what "questions asked not to learn, but to off-load work", but it might sound too vague for newbies. From my experience with SO, I know there is a large number of posts that show no effort or do not include any attempts. It is such a serious issue that I favor explicitly mentioning our e... (more) |

I have applied this suggestion, but also added an example to off-topic item "questions about computers or software that are not connected to software development/engineering" (asking for recommendations). Thanks. (more) |

Nice suggestion. I have added it as an introduction paragraph in the On-topic section as it kind of summarizes all the other points. Thanks. (more) |

I have applied your suggestion (in a simplified form, as "database design" is repeated). Thanks. (more) |

I agree with these points and I have used Stack Overflow as a model because they have the advantage of time and size. They have millions of questions asked over years and by now tags must be in a stable state. (more) |

The debate related to this question made me go further with [Super User site proposal](https://meta.codidact.com/questions/278833#answer-278908). Once we start it, we will migrate this question there. (more) |

I have reopened it since we do not have the Power User community yet. I still think it might fit better in such a community, but since it is still not yet live, I guess we can have it here. (more) |

@Charlie Brumbaugh Yes, I think the context is important. I have little experience with working in Linux, but I assume the context used to issue the command (some tokens might not interpreted in the same way as when run from bash or similar). The context is also helpful to propose alternatives to ... (more) |

@Matthias Braun Welcome to Software Codidact. Unfortunately, your question does not seem related to software development. I have already proposed a community [for this type of questions](https://meta.codidact.com/questions/278833), but we are not ready yet. (more) |

@Lundin After reading the post, I did not see anything directly related to RAM memory (not sure, but memory management at application level normally deals with the virtual memory not with RAM directly). Indeed the answer argues about the RAM, but tagging applies to the question, not the answers. Feel... (more) |

Thanks for the comments, they provide great insight. Ref. to usage of ngrx/store: clearly overkill for this code alone, but this code is part of a much larger application where I have used this pattern. (more) |

@Moshi [iis-urlrewrite] can be defined, but I would try to keep tags count as low as possible. By using [iis] and [url-rewritting], we have only two tags that are quite reusable. (more) |

@Monica Cellio - yes, you are right: there are two aspects. I would use url-rewritting + iis. (more) |

@r~~ Based on feedback provided by you and Lundin I have already refined the scope, so this issue is pretty covered. Not having such a policy makes it almost impossible to provide a reference to anyone asking about why a question is considered offtopic. Not having a policy is like a very small scale ... (more) |

@Lundin I agree and I have changed the scope page to include this topic with some restrictions (small enough and attempt to understand it). Despite a similar policy on SO, this type of questions are actually allowed ([example](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18984775/what-does-this-code-do) ). (more) |

@r~~ I understand your concern, but having a "not yet done" policy is better than having none at all. This is not set in stone and can evolve along with the community. I think this is an important part of the community because any new member has no easy way to understand what they are allowed to ask ... (more) |

I have edited this post and a few others to better emphasize the references to the SE sites (Stack Overflow or Power User). Please try to use similar references (the source name and the author are the most important elements) for future posts. Thanks for your contributions. (more) |

While I a am little bit familiar with Stack Overflow moderation (I have seen their queues and explanations provided by moderators), it would be very useful if you could provide a some references related to what moderation actually means, some guidelines to help the newbies to moderation.

@Charlie Brumbaugh Yes, the underlying technical issue is indeed having inserts and selects in the same time. That is why reporting typically has its own database where some aggregates can be recalculated and one almost never gets into trouble like this. (more) |
