Can anybody help me to solve this problem?
There are 3 tables with 2 foreign keys:
Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('name');
$table->string('email')->unique();
$table->string('password');
$table->rememberToken();
$table->timestamps();
});
Schema::create('firms', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('title')->nullable();
$table->integer('user_id')->unsigned()->nullable();
$table->foreign('user_id')->references('id')->on('users');
$table->timestamps();
});
Schema::create('jobs', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('title')->nullable();
$table->integer('firm_id')->unsigned()->nullable();
$table->foreign('firm_id')->references('id')->on('firms');
$table->timestamps();
});
Error after running migration:
[Illuminate\Database\QueryException]
SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1005 Can't create table `job`.`#sql-5fc_a1`
(errno: 150 "Foreign key constraint is incorrectly formed") (SQL: alter ta
ble `firms` add constraint `firms_user_id_foreign` foreign key (`user_id`)
references `users` (`id`))
[PDOException]
SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1005 Can't create table `job`.`#sql-5fc_a1`
(errno: 150 "Foreign key constraint is incorrectly formed")
In case of foreign keys, the referenced and referencing fields must have exactly the same data type.
You create the id fields in both users and firms as signed integers. However, you create both foreign keys as unsigned integers, therefore the creation of the keys fail.
You need to either add the unsigned clause to the id field definitions, or remove the unsigned clause from the foreign key fields.
This answer is not better than the six answers before it but it is a more comprehensive answer on what causes laravel-errno-150-foreign-key-constraint-is-incorrectly-formed and how to fix specifically for laravel.
1) Spelling : often at times a wrong spelling of the referenced column name or referenced table name can throw up this error and you won't know as the error trace is not very descriptive.
2) Unique : the referenced column must be unique or indexed either by adding ->primary() or adding ->unique() or adding ->index() to the column definition in your migration.
3) Data type : the referenced and referencing fields must have exactly the same data type. this can not be stressed enough.
for bigincrements expected data type is bigInteger('column_name')->unsigned();
for increments expected is integer('column_name')->unsigned(); etc.
4) Remnants : when this error occurs it does not mean that the table is not migrated rather it is migrated but the foreign key columns are not set and it is not added to the migration table hence running php artisan migrate:reset will remove other tables except the faulty tables, so a manual drop of the faulty table is recommended to avoid further errors.
5) Order : this is often the most usual cause of this error the table being referenced must be created or migrated before the reference table else artisan wont find where to integrate the foreign key. to ensure an order for the migration process rename the migration file example:
Table A:2014_10_12_000000_create_users_table.php and
Table B:2014_10_12_100000_create_password_resets_table.php
This indicates that Table A will always come before Table B to change that, i will rename Table B to 2014_10_11_100000_create_password_resets_table.php now it will migrate before Table A.
6) Enable Foreign Key : if all else fails then add Schema::enableForeignKeyConstraints(); inside your function up() before your migration code example:
class CreateUsersTable extends Migration
{
/**
* Run the migrations.
*
* #return void
*/
public function up()
{
Schema::enableForeignKeyConstraints();
Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('name');
$table->string('email')->unique();
$table->string('password');
$table->rememberToken();
$table->timestamps();
});
}
/**
* Reverse the migrations.
*
* #return void
*/
public function down()
{
Schema::dropIfExists('users');
}
}

Mention any more fixes that i missed in the comments thanks.
Most of the time this kind of error occurs due to the datatype mismatch on both the table.
Both primary key table & foreign key table should use same datatype and same option.
For example:
users
Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('name');
$table->timestamps();
});
orders
Schema::create('orders', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->bigIncrements('id');
$table->bigInteger('product_id')->unsigned();
$table->foreign('product_id')->references('id')->on('products');
$table->bigInteger('user_id')->unsigned();
$table->foreign('user_id')->references('id')->on('users')->onDelete('cascade');
$table->timestamp('added_on');
});
On above example, I am trying to assign foreign key to users table from order table but I have bigInteger datatable in order table while in user table, I have simple integer. That's why it's generated this kind of error.
Also, If you have used unsigned(), nullable() etc options with primary or foreign key then you should use same at both the place.
For PHP laravel 5.8 use unsigned modifier in this format
$table->unsignedBigInteger('user_id');
drop all tables in the database and run the migration again
users
cashier refers users
student refers cashier
In addition when declaring foreign keys in laravel all tables your are referring must be on the top. In this case you can use "->unsigned()" modifier..
If the reference table primary key is in BigIcrements then Use the BigInteger for foreign key also like below
Table ATable
public function up()
{
Schema::create('a_tables', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->bigIncrements('id');
}
}
TABLE BTable
public function up()
{
Schema::create('b_tales', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->bigIncrements('id');
$table->bigInteger('a_tables_id')->unsigned();
$table->foreign('a_tables_id')->references('id')->on('a_tables')->onDelete('cascade');
}
}
public function up() { Schema::create('companies', function (Blueprint $table) { $table->bigIncrements('id'); $table->string('name'); $table->text('address'); $table->string('tel1'); $table->string('tel2'); $table->integer('owner'); $table->unsignedBigInteger('access_id'); $table->string('depot_number')->default(2); $table->timestamps(); $table->foreign('access_id')->references('id')->on('accesses') ->onDelete('cascade'); }); }
public function up() { Schema::create('accesses', function (Blueprint $table) { $table->bigIncrements('id'); $table->string('type'); $table->string('description'); $table->timestamps(); }); }
In your database/migrations folder, sort by name. Then make sure create_accesses_table is before create_companies_table here:
we are table villes:
Schema::create('villes', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->bigIncrements('idVille'); // bigIncrement(8 bits)
$table->string('nomVille');
$table->timestamps();
});
foreign key in table users for exemple :
Schema::table('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->bigInteger('ville_idVille')->unsigned()->after('tele');
$table->foreign('ville_idVille')->references('idVille')->on('villes');
});
if you set referencing fields and be have exactly the same data type but error exists
you can change date migration file
just its working
I tried all the answers provided in this thread.
Nothing worked.
Then I discovered I forgot to remove the "migrations" table in phpMyadmin.
I removed all tables from phpMyAdmin but the migrations table. That's why the error persisted again and again.
Well this answer is related to Laravel 7.x. So the error:
errno: 150 "Foreign key constraint is incorrectly formed"
can occur due many reason while migrating the migrations. The one common reason that I am familiar about is order of migration.
Lets say we have two table "users" and "roles", and "users" table have a foreign key referring the "id" column on "roles" table. So make sure that "roles" is migrated before "users" table.
So order of migration is important. Its obvious as it does not make sense for MySQL to refer to "id" column of unknown table.
Second reason is wrong data type. In laravel 7.x we use "id()" method for primary key. So make sure that the intended foreign key (in my case "role_id" in "users" table) is of "bigInteger" and is "unsigned".
Here my code:
Schema::create('roles', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->id();
$table->string('name');
$table->string('slug')->nullable();
$table->timestamps();
});
Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->id();
$table->bigInteger("role_id")->unsigned();
$table->string('name');
$table->string('email')->unique();
$table->timestamp('email_verified_at')->nullable();
$table->string('password');
$table->rememberToken();
$table->timestamps();
$table->foreign('role_id')->references('id')->on('roles')->onDelete('cascade');
});
public function down()
{
Schema::table('users', function(Blueprint $table)
{
$table->dropForeign('users_role_id_foreign');
});
Schema::dropIfExists('users');
}
So in the above code I had to migrate the "roles" table first then the "users" table. So MySQL can create foreign key for the roles table.
What is do is I move the child migration (migration having foreign key) to temporary folder. And restore it after migrating parent migration (in my case "roles" table and then migrate the child migration ("users" migration).
And as side tip: while dropping the dependent migration (migration containing foreign key) first drop the foreign key first. And Laravel uses specific naming convention while dropping foreign key "<table_name>_<foreign_key>_foreign".
So happy coding and be ready for Ground breaking release of PHP 8.
Here the main concept is you have to ensure same type of primary key and foreign key. For example, Let your 1st table migration is
public function up()
{
Schema::create('chapters', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->id();
$table->string('title');
$table->timestamps();
});
}
Then your 2nd table migration will be
public function up()
{
Schema::create('classifications', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->id();
$table->string('title');
$table->unsignedBigInteger('chapter_id');
$table->timestamps();
$table->foreign('chapter_id')->references('id')->on('chapters')->onDelete('cascade');
});
}
Here "id" in "chapter" table and "chapter_id" in " classifications " table are same and that is "unsignedBigInteger".
Again if you get error then change " $table->id(); " in "chapter" table by " $table->bigIncrements('id'); ".
Hope this will help you
for the laravel 7 migration error as
("SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1005 Can't create table laraveltesting.reviews (errno: 150 "Foreign key constraint is incorrectly formed")")
order of migration is most important so parent table should be migrated first then only child
Image 1:migration order while getting error
Schema::create('products', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->id();
$table->string('name');
$table->text('detail');
$table->float('price');
$table->integer('stock');
$table->float('discount');
$table->timestamps();
});
Schema::create('reviews', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->id();
$table->foreignId('product_id')->constrained('products')->cascadeOnDelete();
$table->string('customer');
$table->text('review');
$table->integer('star');
$table->timestamps();
});
this causes the error while migrating this can be resolved by changing the order of migration by renaming the migration as shown in image 2 from the image 1. books table should be migrated first then only the review table should be migrated
Image 2:Order of migration for the successful migration
if you get error change $table->id()(references) by $table->increments('id')
worked with me after all Efforts
delete (user table) from both database and (migration table) then "uncomment" your foreign key Relations
example :
$table->string('pass1');
$table->foreign('pass1')->references('email')->on('abs');
then run : php artisan migrate
well run successfully
sometime your query syntax is true but this error is occur because you create your table unorderly if you want to make relation between table let's suppose you wanna a create many to many relationship between "user" and "role" table for this you should migrate user and role table first then create "role_user" table else you face error like this.
For more details check my screenshot.

in laravel 9 i got same error while creating foreign key for my posts table
SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 1005 Can't create table `wpclone`.`posts` (errno: 150 "Foreign key constraint is incorrectly formed") (SQL: alter table `posts` add constraint `posts_author_id_foreign` foreign key (`author_id`) references `users` (`id`) on delete restrict)
and my table looks like this:
Schema::create('posts', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->id();
$table->integer('author_id')->unsigned();
$table->foreign('author_id')->references('id')->on('users')->onDelete('restrict');
$table->string('title');
});
after i found solution that in laravel 9 unsigned modifier in this format work well
$table->unsignedBigInteger('author_id');
and my error was solve. hope this will help you. Thanks
I am new to Laravel and I am trying to create an application for our customers to confirm ownership of their products.
I created the following tables and models:
users table
Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->bigIncrements('id');
$table->string('name');
$table->string('email')->unique();
$table->timestamp('email_verified_at')->nullable();
$table->string('password');
$table->rememberToken();
$table->timestamps();
});
products table
Schema::create('products', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->bigIncrements('id');
$table->string('name');
$table->integer('etc');
$table->timestamps();
});
user_product table
Schema::create('user_product', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->bigIncrements('id');
$table->unsignedBigInteger('user_id')->index();
$table->foreign('user_id')->references('id')->on('users')->onDelete('cascade');
$table->unsignedBigInteger('product_id')->index();
$table->foreign('product_id')->references('id')->on('products')->onDelete('cascade');
$table->timestamps();
});
user model
public function products()
{
return $this->belongsToMany('App\Product', 'user_product')->withTimestamps();
}
product model
public function users()
{
return $this->belongsToMany('App\User');
}
So here’s where I’m stuck…
I want to have a product displayed together with the user registration form. Upon registration, the user has to confirm ownership of the product. So I need to associate the product displayed with the user account that is about to be created. Not sure how to do that though…
I am using ManyToMany because I want to have all the products in the database, even if they belong to a user or not. After the association between the user and the product, you cannot access that product without being logged in.
I hope it makes a bit of sense, still working on the logistics behind this :)
Any idea of how to reach this scenario?
Any help would be much appreciated :)
If the product can only belong to a single user and a user can have many products you should use One To Many, and create a foreing key in the product table by calling user and would use the create () or save () function.
Using softdelete in the User model you do not risk deleting the user and their products.
But if you want a Many to Many relationship anyway use the attach () function as follows:
$user->produtcs()->attach($productId);
or else
$product->users()->attach($userId)
But both models already have to be in the database, both User and Product.
If you want to know which User owns the product you can add a user_owner_id field in the user_product table and add it in the attach like this:
$user->produtcs()->attach($productId, ['user_owner_id' => $userId]);
I have a Database with Student, Paper and payment tables and i need to get all papers that the student has already bought previously. the sample of my migrations are below-
paper
Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id')->unsigned();
$table->string('fname');
$table->string('lname');
$table->string('district');
$table->string('email')->unique();
$table->string('password');
-payments
Schema::create('payments', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->integer('user_id')->unsigned()->index();
$table->foreign('user_id')->references('id')->on('users');
$table->integer('paper_id')->unsigned()->index();
$table->foreign('paper_id')->references('id')->on('papers');
$table->float('amount');
$table->timestamps();
});
the code i have tried gives me the wrong data,
$papers = DB::table('papers')
->leftJoin('payments','payments.paper_id','=','papers.id')
->orderBy('papers.price','ASC')
->select('papers.*')
->where('papers.id','<>','payments.paper_id')
->get();
can anyone please help.
You can do it using where raw like this
DB::table('papers')->whereRaw('id Not in (Select paper_id FROM payments)')->get();
Or you can also add student id to get optimized results like this
DB::table('papers')->whereRaw('id NOT IN (Select paper_id FROM payments where stduent_id='.$student_id.')')->get();
I am encountering "errno: 150 'Foreign key constraint is incorrectly formed'" when migrating.
I have a table that needs 3 foreign keys:
Schema::create('ads', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('prodname');
$table->string('mfrname');
$table->decimal('priceam');
$table->string('imagenametxt',500);
$table->string('specstxt',500);
$table->string('otherinfotxt',500);
$table->decimal('avalableqty');
$table->binary('validyn');
$table->binary('checkyn');
$table->binary('updatedyn');
$table->integer('selleridno')->unsigned();
$table->integer('catidno')->unsigned();
$table->integer('subcatidno')->unsigned();
$table->timestamps();
});
Schema::table('ads', function(Blueprint $table){
$table->foreign('selleridno')->references('id')->on('users');
$table->foreign('catidno')->references('id')->on('categories');
$table->foreign('subcatidno')->references('id')->
on('subcategories');
});
Users, Categories and Subcategories table are created before this table. selleridno and catidno was successfully created but in creating foreign key for subcatidno I am encountering the error. any suggestions/opinions? thank you in advance.
My Database is MySql.
Just in case you need the SubCategories table here it is:
Schema::create('sub_categories', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('subcategorycd');
$table->string('subcategorytxt');
$table->integer('categoryidno')->unsigned();
$table->timestamps();
$table->foreign('categoryidno')->references('id')->on('categories');
});
This foreign key is on a table called subcategories:
$table->foreign('subcatidno')->references('id')->on('subcategories');
But your table is actually called sub_categories:
Schema::create('sub_categories', function (Blueprint $table) {
When you get subcategory you don't need to get category as well because you get category in subcategory migrate.
And also try to get them as user_id and subcategory_id instead of selleridno and subcatindo.
See if it works.
PS: your subcategory creat method has issue separate foregin key just like you did for ads.
Schema::table('subcategory', function(Blueprint $table){
$table->foreign('category')->references('id')-> on('categories');
});
After refreshing my migrations im getting issues between users migrations and account Types users table, cant figure out the problem.

Relation ship between the users and account types, i believe that maybe the problem is here, but still cant figure out what is wrong with the migration code.

Like I had many times before there occurred an error when you were migrating and you get this error because the migration script hasn't had the chance to register the last migration.
If you don't care about the data already stored drop all the tables in your database manually (even the migrations table) and rerun.
When you have data in your tables you want to keep you should check this migrations table and look at the batch column. Put every entry on 1 you want to keep and set the row and the rows below it on 0 (maybe deleting them will also work). Run php artisan migrate. When using phpmyadmin you can update these rows by query, eg: UPDATE migrations SET batch=0 WHERE migration LIKE "%create_users_table";
Hope this helps :).
I think you should try this:
first remove account_types, users from migrations table in your database.
And refresh your migrations.
Hope this works for you!
