I am trying to add a table to my schema in MySQL workbench and I keep getting an error.
Message Log:
Executing:
CREATE TABLE `TestVisual`.`arc` (
`arcid` INT NOT NULL DEFAULT 0 COMMENT '',
`name` VARCHAR(45) NULL DEFAULT '' COMMENT '',
PRIMARY KEY (`arcid`) COMMENT '');
Operation failed: There was an error while applying the SQL script to the database.
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 'COMMENT '')' at line 4
SQL Statement:
CREATE TABLE `TestVisual`.`arc` (
`arcid` INT NOT NULL DEFAULT 0 COMMENT '',
`name` VARCHAR(45) NULL DEFAULT '' COMMENT '',
PRIMARY KEY (`arcid`) COMMENT '')
I have tried to follow a tutorial but I still get the error. There are other tables already on this server and I am able to change their data along with add and delete columns. I am also on the root user.
Barmar answered it above in the comments. This server is using an older version of MySQL so there are not allowed to be COMMENT in the sql. Deleted them and it worked fine.

How can I fix MySQL error #1064?
(3 answers)
Closed 2 years ago.
I have had a problem since working with the new MYSQL version 8.0.18.
Always get the same error message:
SQLSTATE [42000]: Syntax error or access violation: 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 'function) VALUES (?,?,?,?,?)
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS bugtracker1_product_status;
CREATE TABLE bugtracker1_product_status (
statusID INT(10) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
productID INT(10),
statusTitle VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
type ENUM('bug','suggestion') NOT NULL DEFAULT 'bug',
function ENUM('duplicate','solved','outstanding') NOT NULL DEFAULT 'outstanding',
cssClassName VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
showOrder INT(10) NOT NULL DEFAULT 0,
KEY (productID)
);
Where is the problem?
function ENUM('duplicate','solved','outstanding') NOT NULL DEFAULT 'outstanding',
It works in the MariaDB
Thanks for your help!
Thank you for your support, but unfortunately this does not lead to success. The error remains.
`function` ENUM('duplicate','solved','outstanding') NOT NULL DEFAULT 'outstanding',
Could not prepare statement 'INSERT INTO bugtracker1_product_status (productID, statusTitle, cssClassName, type, function) VALUES (?,?,?,?,?)'
Is there no alternative?
FUNCTION (R); became reserved in 8.0.1
function is a reserved keyword in MySQL. You need to escape it with backticks:
`function` ENUM...
The MySQL docs state that it became reserved in version 8.0.1
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,

'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 am a little embarrassed asking this question but I seem to be stumped.
I am using MySQL 5.7 and am trying to upload to my online server which has MySQL 5.6. phpMyAdmin was used create the database. I get the same error when I try to restore the database in my local phpMyAdmin (part of my WAMP server).
I have also studied the My SQL reference documentation as well as several internet searches. Here is the error:
SQL query:
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `heyx1_assets`;
CREATE TABLE `heyx1_assets` (
`id` int(10) UNSIGNED NOT NULL COMMENT 'Primary Key',
`parent_id` int(11) NOT NULL DEFAULT '0' COMMENT
) ;
MySQL said:
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 ')' at line 4
Any help will be appreciated. My client is becoming very impatient.
You have a COMMENT, but no comment. You need a string after COMMENT:
CREATE TABLE `heyx1_assets` (
`id` int(10) UNSIGNED NOT NULL COMMENT 'Primary Key',
`parent_id` int(11) NOT NULL DEFAULT '0' COMMENT 'Comment goes here'
---------------------------------------------------^
) ;
Which phpMyAdmin versions are you using on each server? This seems like it may have been a bug with an older version of phpMyAdmin (which had trouble exporting in a similar way to what you're describing); I suggest you upgrade to the latest (which is currently 4.6.5.2).
You can also edit the SQL file to manually fix the COMMENT as shown by Gordon Linoff.
#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 ') VIRTUAL,
`title_type` VARCHAR(45) NULL DEFAULT null,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`))' at line 2
Here is a part of script:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `sggis`.`maps_type` (
`id` INT GENERATED ALWAYS AS () VIRTUAL,
`title_type` VARCHAR(45) NULL DEFAULT 'yandex',
PRIMARY KEY (`id`))
ENGINE = InnoDB;
SQL says that problem is in the 2nd line, but i can't find it.
Code generated by MySQL Workbench.
When using VIRTUAL columns you need to specify the expression
Any legal, deterministic expression which can be calculated is
permitted, with the following exceptions:
Your expression is blank.
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:
Executing SQL script in server

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
