Inserting integer saves different value
Reported by Matt Simpson | July 19th, 2010 @ 05:39 AM
Hello,
When I submit a form with an integer field value: 5551231234
A different value is saved in the database.
Server Log when submitting the form
Started POST "/admin/customers" for 127.0.0.1 at 2010-07-18 23:23:42 -0500 Processing by Admin::CustomersController#create as HTML Parameters: {"_snowman"=>"☃", "authenticity_token"=>"RwTyuC1ZegeSODuOPiVmrvscaFwDSVpXY08zF4GCOR0=", "customer"=>{"first_name"=>"Joe", "last_name"=>"Shmoe", "company_name"=>"Awesome LLC", "phone_number"=>"5551231234", "street"=>"Some Street", "city"=>"TheCity", "state"=>"MO", "zipcode"=>"63342"}, "commit"=>"Create Customer"} SQL (0.5ms) SHOW TABLES SQL (0.2ms) BEGIN SQL (1.4ms) describecustomers SQL (0.3ms) INSERT INTOcustomers(city,company_name,created_at,first_name,last_name,phone_number,state,street,submitted_at,updated_at,zipcode) VALUES ('TheCity', 'Awesome LLC', '2010-07-19 04:23:43', 'Joe', 'Shmoe', 5551231234, 'MO', 'Some Street', NULL, '2010-07-19 04:23:43', 63342) SQL (1.1ms) COMMIT Redirected to http://127.0.0.1:3000/admin/customers Completed 302 Found in 147ms
When I get the customer in console I get a different phone
number:
ruby-1.9.2-rc1 > Customer.all
=> [#<Customer id: 3, submitted_at: nil, first_name: "Joe", last_name: "Shmoe", company_name: "Awesome LLC", phone_number: 2147483647, street: "Some Street", city: "TheCity", state: "MO", zipcode: 63342, created_at: "2010-07-19 04:25:47", updated_at: "2010-07-19 04:25:47">]
Trying to save as 5551231234 and got 2147483647. I tried the same value with zipcode and got the same results "2147483647". It seems whenever inserting with a value greater than an x amount does not work. This worked in previous rails versions so I do not think it is a database issue but I could be wrong, please help.
I also tried as a float field_type with no avail.

I think what you're seeing here is a MySQL limitation:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/numeric-types.htmlThe largest value an int field can contain is 2147483647.
You can use a MySQL bigint to hold larger numbers than that. You can declare them like this;
create_table :customers do |t| t.integer :code, :limit => 5 t.timestamps end -

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not been commented on for at least three months.
The resources of the Rails core team are limited, and so we are asking for your help. If you can still reproduce this error on the 3-0-stable branch or on master, please reply with all of the information you have about it and add "[state:open]" to your comment. This will reopen the ticket for review. Likewise, if you feel that this is a very important feature for Rails to include, please reply with your explanation so we can consider it.
Thank you for all your contributions, and we hope you will understand this step to focus our efforts where they are most helpful.
