I am importing a database from MySQL 4.0.27-standard into a new webhost with Server version: 5.5.48-37.8 - Percona Server (GPL), Release 37.8, Revision 727, using PHPMySQL.
I am getting the following error:
#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use
near '(14) NOT NULL '', PRIMARY KEY (site_id) ) ENGINE=MyISAM' at
line 14
Here is the CREATE TABLE query:
CREATE TABLE Brewing (
site_id int(5) NOT NULL auto_increment,
site_url varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',
site_name varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',
site_comment varchar(255) default NULL,
site_rating int(2) NOT NULL default '0',
site_entrydate varchar(25) NOT NULL default '',
site_lasttouched timestamp(14) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (site_id)
) ENGINE=MyISAM;
Remove the size of timestamp. It already has a default for setting up timestamp. So remove (14).
Plus added bonus, add ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP for auto update of timestamp.
The length argument for timestamp represents fractional seconds (see the documentation). The allowed lengths for fractional seconds are 0 to 6. 14 is too long.
I would advise you to just remove the length altogether.

I created a scheme in mysql workbench and exported this scheme into SQL code.
.
When I want to generate table user on my server I am getting error.
Script:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS 'user' (
'id' INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
'registerDate' TIMESTAMP NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
'login' VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
'password' VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL,
'status' TINYINT NOT NULL,
'credits' INT NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
PRIMARY KEY ('id'),
UNIQUE INDEX 'login_UNIQUE' ('login' ASC) VISIBLE)
ENGINE = InnoDB;
Error #1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near ''user' ( 'id' INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, 'registerDate' TIMESTAMP NOT NU' at line 1
I dont understand where is an error? I didnt see anything wrong.
Version on server: 10.1.32-MariaDB
I'm toying around with MySQL Workbench, using its tools to create my database. When attempting to forward engineer the database, I keep getting this error.
Executing SQL script in server
ERROR: Error 1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '-01-01,

`CellPhone` INT(10) UNSIGNED NOT NULL DEFAULT 5550000000,
PRIMARY KEY (`DriverID`))
ENGINE = InnoDB
SQL script execution finished: statements: 6 succeeded, 1 failed
In the SQL script preview, it does show a semicolon after InnoDB
Any kind of date needs to be specified as if a string:
`DOB` DATE NOT NULL DEFAULT '1900-01-01'
It's also worth expanding this schema a little. Names are frequently over 12 letters long. VARCHAR(255) is a good default for "string" fields.
You may find that these defaults are a huge mistake. It's possible someone's actual last name is "Last" in which case it's like they're using a default, or they simply don't have a last name. NULL values serve a purpose, so embrace them.
everyone! I'm newbie to MySQL. I've created a new model using Workbench tools(I mean, that I haven't written any string of code by myself).
When trying to forward engineer it I get:

Moreover, when trying to forward engineer default Workbench model "sakila_full" i get the same thing:

Well, the BIG probleme is that Mysql Workbench adds itself indexes comments that generate an error, when using "Forward Engineer" or "Synchronize Model"
This problem did not exist when I was using version 6.0.
It looks like you've taken the COMMENT strings a little too far. According to the MySQL CREATE TABLE syntax, a COMMENT attribute is only permitted on a column definition. That means it's invalid on the INDEX or PRIMARY KEY definitions you have listed near the end of your CREATE statements.
The COMMENT '' aren't necessary and can be omitted entirely, especially since you are leaving them blank. Otherwise, they would be used for a little bit of extra human-readable metadata on your column definitions.
To get this working with what you have, remove the COMMENT attributes from your index and primary key definitions.
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `university`.`CITY` (
`ID_CITY` INT NOT NULL COMMENT '',
`CNAME` TEXT(15) NULL COMMENT '',
`POPULATION` INT NULL COMMENT '',
-- No COMMENT on PK
PRIMARY KEY (`ID_CITY`)
) ENGINE = InnoDB;
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `sakila`.`actor` (
`actor_id` SMALLINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT COMMENT '',
`first_name` VARCHAR(45) NOT NULL COMMENT '',
`last_name` VARCHAR(45) NOT NULL COMMENT '',
`last_update` TIMESTAMP NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP COMMENT '',
-- No COMMENT on PK or INDEX
PRIMARY KEY (`actor_id`),
INDEX `idx_actor_last_name` (`last_name` ASC)
) ENGINE = InnoDB
DEFAULT CHARACTER SET = utf8;
Or the whole thing without any blank COMMENTs:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `university`.`CITY` (
`ID_CITY` INT NOT NULL COMMENT 'A comment that is not blank!',
`CNAME` TEXT(15) NULL,
`POPULATION` INT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`ID_CITY`)
) ENGINE = InnoDB;
(Same for the other table)
MySQL is generally quite good at pointing you directly to the source of your syntax error with the error message:
check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'COMMENT ''),
With the exception of errors occurring at the end of the statement, which get a little ambiguous, the right syntax to use near will show you exactly what's amiss. In the above case, the COMMENT '') should direct you to the only COMMENT attribute followed by a ), which was the one at PRIMARY KEY. From there, check the manual (linked above) for legal syntax in each segment of your statement.
Remove "VISIBLE" and "INVISIBLE" words from all INDEX
I'm trying to get this to work but I don't understand how SQL works outside of the basics. Can you find the error in this?
CREATE TABLE lil_urls (
id varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',
url text,
date timestamp(14) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (id)
) TYPE=MyISAM;
I'm currently getting this error in PhPMyAdmin:
#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '(14) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (id)' at line 4
Thanks for your help!
Correct syntax is
CREATE TABLE lil_urls (
id varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',
url text,
date timestamp NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (id)
) ENGINE=MyISAM;
TYPE is no longer used and you need to use as ENGINE
And no need to specify length for timestamp
Just started playing with MySQL and I've already made stupid mistake which is somewhere in there; that's what I need to figure out:
CREATE TABLE `txts` (
`ID` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`name` VARCHAR(75) NOT NULL,
`content` VARCHAR(MAX) NOT NULL,
`lastupdate` DATE NOT NULL default '0000-00-00',
PRIMARY KEY (`ID`)
)ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;
It gives:
#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds
to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'MAX) NOT NULL,
`lastupdate` DATE NOT NULL default '0000-00-00', PRIMARY KEY ' at line 4
I know it's extremely stupid but I can't see a single mistake in it.
VARCHAR(MAX)
MySQL does not support the use of MAX.
Use an real number value.
Per Google:
The length can be specified as a value from 0 to 255 before MySQL 5.0.3, and 0 to 65,535 in 5.0.3 and later versions.
