# Error with update data

 *  Resolved [audunmb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/audunmb/)
 * (@audunmb)
 * [2 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-with-update-data/)
 * I get the following error when updating data (step 3 in advanced setup)
 *     ```wp-block-code
        ERROR:
       Data too long for column 'url' at row 1
       Please try again an issue has occurred.
   
       Please see the installer-log.txt file for more details.
       ```
   
 * How do I fix this? It’s a localhost (with linux), so I have full control over
   the setup if there’s something I can change to avoid this.
 * Log posted below the error (I guess this is from installer-log.txt?)
 *     ```wp-block-code
       EXCEPTION ERROR:  Data too long for column 'url' at row 1

 * Thanks. This was solved with great support from Duplicator. 
   If someone else 
   encounters the same issue, here’s what I got help to to do:
    - Check the installl log-file and identify the table in the database that caused
      this. (In my case the wp_yoast_seo_links table).
    - Open the installer in Advanced Mode
    - Start the installation and complete the first two steps normally
    - Before starting Step 3 open phpMyAdmin in a new tab and navigate to the database
      on which the site is getting installed and find the table that causes the 
      issue.
    - From at the top menu, click on Structure
    - Click on the action Change for the row with name url
    - Set Type to LONGTEXT and save
    - Continue with the installation where you were left off normally
