I have the following field in a CREATE TABLE statement:
`date` DATETİME NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
But I get the following error:
Error: #1067 - Invalid default value for 'date'
How can i fix that problem?
MySQL 5.6.5 added that default syntax for datetime, previously it was only available for TIMESTAMP.
In other words, you most likely need to change your datatype or upgrade your MySQL.

I am running the following query in mariadb/ mysql engine.
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTSQuotes(idINTEGER NOT NULL auto_increment ,quoteTEXT,authorVARCHAR(255),genreVARCHAR(255),tagTEXT,createdAtDATETIME DEFAULT NOW(),updatedAtDATETIME DEFAULT NOW(), PRIMARY KEY (id)) ENGINE=InnoDB;
However, I am getting the following error:
An error occurred while creating the table:
{Invalid default value for 'createdAt'}
Here is the result of sql mode:
show variables like 'sql_mode' ;
STRICT_TRANS_TABLES,NO_ZERO_IN_DATE,NO_ZERO_DATE,ALLOW_INVALID_DATES,ERROR_FOR_DIVISION_BY_ZERO,NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION
Any help is appreciated.
From https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/datetime/ :
MariaDB starting with 10.0.1 Since MariaDB 10.0.1, DATETIME columns
also accept CURRENT_TIMESTAMP as the default value.
Note that NOW() is not mentioned, but the effect is the same.
`effective_end_utc` timestamp NOT NULL COMMENT 'The UTC timestamp for when the target ceases to be in effect.',
This will end up giving me
ERROR 1067 (42000) at line 27: Invalid default value for 'effective_end_utc'
Base on other reponse, I have even set the mode to following at the begining of schema
SET GLOBAL SQL_MODE='ALLOW_INVALID_DATES'
Any idea whats going wrong?
The schema should be changed with a default value like
`reported_timestamp_utc` timestamp NULL DEFAULT NULL COMMENT
I have 2 Windows servers running MySQL, one of them running version 5.1 and the other running version 5.7. I am trying trying to copy a database from the MySQL 5.7 over to the 5.1 on the other server and believe it's the difference in versions (new syntax in 5.7?) that is causing this error, but I could be wrong.
After Exporting through phpMyAdmin the database I in the 5.7 version and trying to Import in the 5.1 version I'm getting the error
MySQL said: Documentation #1067 - Invalid default value for
'postdate'
on the command
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `jobs` (
`id` mediumint( 9 ) NOT NULL ,
`title` varchar( 200 ) DEFAULT NULL ,
`descr` varchar( 5000 ) DEFAULT NULL ,
`postdate` datetime DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
) ENGINE = InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT =5 DEFAULT CHARSET = utf8mb4;
Any idea why?
In 5.1, the default value has to be a constant value (e.g. NULL is acceptable) except for the timestamp type where current_timestamp is allowed. I.e., for a date or datetime you cannot use current_date, now or current_timestamp.
So you either stick to the datetime type for your postdate column and you have to give up current_timestamp as a default value (you can maybe set up a trigger for the purpose, see examples here), or - depending on your requirements - consider using timestamp (which has a different range of values).
The corresponding section of the manual says:
With one exception, the default value must be a constant; it cannot be
a function or an expression. This means, for example, that you cannot
set the default for a date column to be the value of a function such
as NOW() or CURRENT_DATE. The exception is that you can specify
CURRENT_TIMESTAMP as the default for a TIMESTAMP column.
I got a stupid problem with SQL that I can't fix.
ALTER TABLE `news`
ADD `dateAdded` DATETIME NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP AUTO_INCREMENT ,
ADD PRIMARY KEY ( `dateAdded` )
Error:
(#1067)Invalid default value for 'dateAdded'
Can somebody help me?
CURRENT_TIMESTAMP is only acceptable on TIMESTAMP fields. DATETIME fields must be left either with a null default value, or no default value at all - default values must be a constant value, not the result of an expression.
relevant docs: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/data-type-defaults.html
You can work around this by setting a post-insert trigger on the table to fill in a "now" value on any new records.
CURRENT_TIMESTAMP is version specific and is now allowed for DATETIME columns as of version 5.6.
See MySQL docs.
Also do note when specifying DATETIME as DATETIME(3) or like on MySQL 5.7.x, you also have to add the same value for CURRENT_TIMESTAMP(3). If not it will keep throwing 'Invalid default value'.
I had the same issue,
following fix solved my problem.
Select Type as 'TIMESTAMP'
DON'T ENTER ANYTHING IN LENGTH/VALUES FIELD. KEEP IT BLANK
Select CURRENT_TIMESTAMP as Default value.
I am using MySQL ver 5.5.56
I have mysql version 5.6.27 on my LEMP and CURRENT_TIMESTAMP as default value works fine.
mysql version 5.5 set datetime default value as CURRENT_TIMESTAMP will be report error
you can update to version 5.6 , it set datetime default value as CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
Change the type from datetime to timestamp and it will work!
I had the same issue for mysql 5.5.56-MariaDB - MariaDB Server
Hope it can help... sorry if depricated
I solved mine by changing DATE to DATETIME
