CEL ODBC MYSQL Logging Error: Column type -9 not supported at this time

I’ve enabled CEL on a server and configured it to connect to our MySQL database via ODBC. All other data is working fine from the database, but CEL logging results in errors for every column in the CEL table.

Here’s an example of the output:
[Jun 15 08:40:23] WARNING[23435]: cel_odbc.c:701 odbc_log: Column type -9 (field 'pbx-connector:cel:peer') is unsupported at this time.

Table structure is as follows (taken from the mailing lists):
CREATE TABLEcel(idbigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,eventtypevarchar(255) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,eventtimetimestamp NOT NULL default CURRENT_TIMESTAMP on update CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,userdeftypevarchar(255) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,cid_namevarchar(255) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,cid_numvarchar(255) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,cid_anivarchar(255) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,cid_rdnisvarchar(255) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,cid_dnidvarchar(255) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,extenvarchar(255) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,contextvarchar(255) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,channamevarchar(255) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,appnamevarchar(255) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,appdatavarchar(255) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,amaflagsint(11) NOT NULL,accountcodevarchar(255) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,peeraccountvarchar(255) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,uniqueidvarchar(255) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,linkedidvarchar(255) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,userfieldvarchar(255) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL,peervarchar(255) collate utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL, UNIQUE KEYid(id) ) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=53 DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_unicode_ci;

The only modification I did was increase the storage size on the columns, because our DBA thought that might be a quick fix.

Does anyone have any thoughts?

I forgot to mention that this is on Asterisk 1.8. Has nobody any input? I’ve tried several different Google searches and I’m not finding anything helpful. Even our DBA here at my employer is having trouble determining how to resolve the issue.

Looks like the answer might be here: http://forums.asterisk.org/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=79533&start=0#p161992

I’ll update the community so there’s a more recent post about this for Google to find when people search…
