Tables not showing in database - mysql

I have already migrated the table, then added columns to it. Then again migrated it. But, it says
Nothing to migrate
and, it doesn't even show my table, and it's columns. We three people are working on it and the database is hosted on another server.
When I try to rollback, it shows error:
[ErrorException]
Undefined index: 2017_01_07_071008_create_user_detail_table
And this migration is created by my friend on her computer.
What's the problem here, I don't understand.
Please Help.

You should create another migration to add columns to created table and then run:
composer dumpauto
php artisan migrate
Or you can recreate all tables:
php artisan migrate:refresh
In this case all data will be lost.

Django 1.8 migrations "Table already exists"

I've been working on making an auto-deployment system to make updating my django site easier, and it mostly works, but right now my database changes are screwy. I have the auto deployment run "makemigrations" "migrate" then "syncdb"
The trouble I have is when I run migrate, it tells me that my table already exists and can't be created. Previous answers have said to run "migrate --fake", but if I do this, it appears to think everything is up to date. The issue then is that I run "makemigrations" or "migrate" and it says no changes detected (even though there is a missing column from my database). I tried to run "sqlall" to figure out what it thinks the database should be, and it tells me that I have pending migrations. So I tried running "migrate" and it said no migrations exist.
How do I manage this? And in the future, what should I do for database migrations to troubleshoot/fix these problems?
Thanks
I fixed the problem. The issue stemmed from a misunderstanding of how Django migrations worked. Also, as per the comments, syncdb is no longer a command in manage.py.
The original issue was that I had been using a different database for deployment and then I switched and my migrations were out of sync from my development database, so I had to clear out both databases and migrations and start over with my data. Then I run makemigrations on my local machine and migrate there (for my dev DB). Then I upload to the server and have the fab script run migrate on the server production DB without calling makemigrations. This seems to have fixed the issue.

Mysql is not working correctly

Hello Stackoverflow,
I was trying to connect to my MySQL database through Coda 2. I connected, created a database called 'database1' (for example), then I tried to create a table called 'user', but I get this error:
MySQL said: Table 'user' is read only
I was surprised because it had worked previously with other databases long time ago. I went to my xampp files, //xampp/mysql/data/database1/ and then I found out that user.ibd is there alone. So I first tried to change the properties of the files by disabling read-only. The problem is that when I did that, close the properties windows, and opened again I would get the read-only check box on. So I gave up on that. So I said ok, I will just create the database from my server instead. So I when to phpmyadmin, I see that database1 is created but there is no table called 'user'. So I try to create a table and I get this error:
#1813 - Tablespace for table '`database1`.`user`' exists. Please DISCARD the tablespace before IMPORT.
I then I found out I cannot even do much with phpmyadmin from my server. I tried reinstalling xampp, but it was impossible for me to remove the origianal because it was "already" in use. Please help me and thank you!
EDIT: I can apparently create databases but not tables. Just to clear that up.
You can try using CLI and logged into mysql and create a new database and a table. If it's working, there's something wrong with your phpmyadmin not mysql. Make sure you logged in as the same user (whom have root privileges) when creating the database and table.

How do I migrate data from production db to development db (Rails 4)?

I know this one sounds kind of backwards! I've been working on a cloud-based case-management application, and was working on a support-ticketing feature. We have our development database (MySQL) that has all the same data as our production database (It's a very large app). Development is basically a "sandbox" environment, hence why the development db has all the same as the production db. This morning, I ran into a problem in my local development server for:
Migrations are pending; run 'bin/rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=development' to resolve this issue.
Alright, did that, even though it didn't make any sense. It err'd out, because it was trying to create tables that already existed (I had already ran my migrations, the features were completed a day ago! And everything worked great).
The only thing that I did the moment before I got this message in my development server was uncomment an entirely-commented-out file to try and fix problems with TinyMCE (/config/tinymce.yml, text editor), followed by restarting my rails dev server. All this file was, was a bunch of defaults and plugins. When I saw the problem, I first commented them all back out. Still the same error. Proceeded with rake db: tasks.
Started looking for answers.. kept getting errors. Made a noob mistake, and ultimately did a
rake db:migrate:reset
which I knew would rebuild the schema at the cost of hosing the db. This failed.. But we do have the db in more than one place (since it's the same as production.) Also, just to try and bring all the tables back:
rake db:schema:load
....failed on one of the tables anyway with
ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: Mysql2::Error: Specified key was too long; max key length is 767 bytes: CREATE UNIQUE INDEX `login` USING btree ON `users` (`login`, `intranet_id`)
..and all the tables are empty (as expected) that were successfully created. I'm by no means a database pro (I haven't dev'd very long). Am wondering, is there a way to copy the entire production database into the devel database? Tables, data, and all. Or any other suggestions? Really lost on this one.
You can use mysql_dump.
If you connect to the database everything is there - you just have to do a dump of the full database and then do the dump again into the production tables.
As you clearly see you can output from the database with ">" and you can import with the "<".

How to restore database tables from MySQL Database

hi everybody i'm new to Ruby on Rails...
I created a Rails Application for that i created a database called 'cart' in MySQL database by using rake command. but unfortunately my database got crashed. right now there are no databases including older ones also deleted.
please help me, how can i get my all databases from MySQL s/w. is there any command to restore the crashed data.
Thanks
If you don't have backup it could be hard. You can remove database, create another and rake db:migrate but it will only create a structure for you and will not restore data.
You can try to reproduce your records from rails logs but it will be a lot of work
What do you mean by database crashed?

rails: changing database

I have created an app using a badly named database, all alterations to important data in the database have been done in fixtures so that I can just drop the database, recreate it and then rake migrate the database tables and fill them with the initial data from the fixtures.
I would like to change the name of my database now, so I updated the database.yml file to reflect another database name. I created the database in mysql and then tried to run the migration and fixtures.
Running the migration with trace shows that it is running commands to create tables etc. However once I am finished I get errors in my application saying that the tables don't exist in the new database.
I go into mysql and check the database and it is completely empty. I have tried wiping everything and running the migrations a few times but nothing changes. Is there something I am missing?
I don't know what commands you used to do the migration, but to migrate a production database (which I infer from the tag, "production-environment"), you have to do:
RAILS_ENV=production rake db:migrate
If that's not the answer, then please provide the command you used to perform the migration, which database you expected to be affected, and the relevant bits of database.yml.
