The new server now has the same version of FreeTDS and the config are supposed to be the same as well. I tried the DBI tracing option on both servers which revealed that there is a maxlen set to 4000 on the one but only 255 on the new server which results in column contents being truncated. This is an excerpt of the DBI tracing (level 5):

The question is: How do I set/override the maxlen? I have tried a couple of things, which haven't worked. |
