That's not good.  My mysql works fine, but I think it automatically tells the index to only use the first part of the col.  i.e. try this and see if it works:

CREATE INDEX attribute_field_value_idx ON grouper_attributes (field_id, value(767));

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/create-index.html

Yes, works.

 

I only have 5.0.45, but it is windows...

I wonder if we should change ddlutils to account for this...

Does ddlutils check the charset ? max=333 for utf8 and max=1000 for latin1 AFAIK
