Giant error message causes script failure

[SCHEDULER-1232] Giant error message causes script failure
Type	Bug
Priority	Low
Severity	Trivial
Component	AcquireScheduler Script
Fixed In Version	[8.0] 8.0
Versions Affected	[3.7a] 3.7a
Severity	Closed
Resolution	Complete

Reported By	Bob Denny

Description

When an Observation fails, if the error message coming in from the failed component (in this case TheSky) is really long, it causes a script error from exceeding the max length of the message in the database.



Limit the length to 254 characters before writing to the database. Do not limit it for logging etc!!

  Giant error messages can no longer cause script error due to exceeding the 255 char field limitation in the schedule database.
