MySQL INSERT results in duplicate key, but no duplicate exists - mysql

I have read through many entries that people have claimed to have this problem and they've solved their issue but none of their answers solve MY issue. I am using phpMyAdmin to update the email address of a user. The "user_email" field is marked as UNIQUE. Whenever I update the email address to his actual email, I get:
Duplicate entry 'user#example.com' for key 'user_email'
I have Analyzed, Optimized, and Repaired the table and no errors appear -- everything comes up as OK.
I have run several SQL statements to find any duplication only to find out that none exists.
I even exported the table and imported the records again. I add the indexes and try and update... duplicate entry message. Here's the table structure:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `users` (
`id` bigint(20) NOT NULL,
`md5_id` varchar(200) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
`full_name` tinytext,
`user_name` varchar(200) DEFAULT NULL,
`user_email` varchar(220) DEFAULT NULL,
`user_level` tinyint(4) NOT NULL DEFAULT '1',
`pwd` varchar(220) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
`address` text COLLATE latin1_general_ci,
`country` varchar(200) DEFAULT NULL,
`tel` varchar(200) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
`fax` varchar(200) DEFAULT NULL,
`website` text,
`date` date NOT NULL DEFAULT '0000-00-00',
`users_ip` varchar(200) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
`approved` int(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
`activation_code` int(10) NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
`banned` int(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
`ckey` varchar(220) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
`ctime` varchar(220) NOT NULL DEFAULT '',
`location` tinyint(4) NOT NULL DEFAULT '9'
) ENGINE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=210 DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;
ALTER TABLE `users` ADD PRIMARY KEY (`id`);
MODIFY `id` bigint(20) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,AUTO_INCREMENT=210;
Even now that I have REMOVED the UNIQUE index from the 'user_email' field, the error is STILL coming up. I REALLY don't understand that (Maybe something residual...? I'm just guessing).
Picture me with wads of hair in my hands. Can anyone please help?
UPDATE:
Here's the output from SHOW CREATE TABLE users
Here's the output from SHOW INDEX FROM users
Error message while editing:
Error message without using database name:
Output of: SHOW CREATE TABLE proctor.users

Prevent MySQL from duplicates per given project

I have this MySQL table
CREATE TABLE `d_hits` (
`id` int(11) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`projectId` varchar(36) NOT NULL,
`data` text CHARACTER SET utf8,
`extras` text,
`status` varchar(50) NOT NULL DEFAULT 'notDone',
`evaluation` varchar(50) DEFAULT 'NONE',
`isGoldenHIT` tinyint(1) DEFAULT '0',
`goldenHITResultId` int(11) unsigned DEFAULT '0',
`notes` text,
`created_timestamp` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
`updated_timestamp` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
`isURL` tinyint(4) DEFAULT '0',
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=3561574 DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;
My goal here is to prevent the database from creating duplicates data for a given project. For example, project with projectID: 123 has data: link1 but if I enter data: link1 again it should prevent it from entering. However if projectID is 333 and the given data is again link1, it should insert it without any problems. My question is, how can I prevent the duplicates per project?
You seem to want a unique constraint.
ALTER TABLE d_hits
ADD UNIQUE (projectid,
data);

Joomla 2.5 duplicate session error "PRIMARY' SQL=INSERT INTO"

This is the message we're receiving on the frontend
Duplicate entry '5dcf22giahsklj52uhukcdc6k5' for key 'PRIMARY' SQL=INSERT INTO `kawt1_session` (`session_id`, `client_id`, `time`) VALUES ('5dcf22giahsklj52uhukcdc6k5', 0, '1615520883')
I've tried truncating the sessions table, dropping the table and then creating a new structure with the following code
+++===============

Go to the database and find for the jos_session table ( here "jos" is prefix so you can search with your prefix and _session table )
Select that table and Repair it, it will solve the issue. https://prnt.sc/10jrzg7
As I discovered the issue was ONLY displayed on the homepage of the website, I switched the default home page to another menu item. This resolved the problem. Now I have to understand why this only occurred on the home page.

missing default value for NOT NULL TIMESTAMP?

I want to execute the following mysql statement from the framadate software.
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `sondage` (
`id_sondage` char(16) NOT NULL,
`commentaires` text,
`mail_admin` varchar(128) DEFAULT NULL,
`nom_admin` varchar(64) DEFAULT NULL,
`titre` text,
`id_sondage_admin` char(24) DEFAULT NULL,
`date_creation` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
`date_fin` timestamp NOT NULL,
`format` varchar(2) DEFAULT NULL,
`mailsonde` tinyint(1) DEFAULT '0',
`statut` int(11) NOT NULL DEFAULT '1' COMMENT '1 = actif ; 0 = inactif ; ',
UNIQUE KEY `id_sondage` (`id_sondage`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8
But I get the error: Error in query (1067): Invalid default value for 'date_fin'
I wonder what that means, because there is no default value given for date_fin.
It sounds to me like your MySQL server is insisting you provide a default value for your date_fin column. Try this.
...
`date_fin` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
...
In general, it's a reasonably good practice to provide default values for NOT NULL columns.

MariaDB - CONNECT ENGINE - ORDER BY error

I'm trying to get Asterisk CDR records from MySQL table (5.5.45) by CONNECT engine on other server running MariaDB (10.0.29).
I can create the connection between table easily:
CREATE TABLE `calls` engine=CONNECT table_type=MYSQL
CONNECTION='mysql://user#IP/asteriskcdrdb/calls';
When I run simple SELECT * FROM calls, everything works good, when I add some WHERE conditions, still everything okay.
But the problem start when I add ORDER BY column parameter, then I got this error from MariaDB:
#1032 - Can't find record in 'calls'
I checked MySQL log, MariaDB log - there are no errors at all.
Did I miss something?
Thank you!
Update: The whole query is simple:
SELECT * FROM `calls` ORDER BY `calldate`
The table structure:
CREATE TABLE `calls` (
`calldate` datetime NOT NULL default '0000-00-00 00:00:00',
`clid` varchar(80) NOT NULL default '',
`src` varchar(80) NOT NULL default '',
`dst` varchar(80) NOT NULL default '',
`dcontext` varchar(80) NOT NULL default '',
`channel` varchar(80) NOT NULL default '',
`dstchannel` varchar(80) NOT NULL default '',
`lastapp` varchar(80) NOT NULL default '',
`lastdata` varchar(80) NOT NULL default '',
`duration` int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
`billsec` int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
`disposition` varchar(45) NOT NULL default '',
`amaflags` int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
`accountcode` varchar(20) NOT NULL default '',
`uniqueid` varchar(32) NOT NULL default '',
`userfield` varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',
`recordingfile` varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',
`cnum` varchar(40) NOT NULL default '',
`cnam` varchar(40) NOT NULL default '',
`outbound_cnum` varchar(40) NOT NULL default '',
`outbound_cnam` varchar(40) NOT NULL default '',
`dst_cnam` varchar(40) NOT NULL default '',
`call_charge` float NOT NULL default '0',
`from_did` varchar(30) NOT NULL,
`did` varchar(50) NOT NULL default '',
`user_id` int(8) unsigned default NULL,
`client_id` int(8) unsigned default NULL,
KEY `IDX_UNIQUEID` (`uniqueid`),
KEY `src` (`src`),
KEY `dst` (`dst`),
KEY `calldate` (`calldate`),
KEY `uniqueid` (`uniqueid`),
KEY `userfield` (`userfield`),
KEY `from_did` (`from_did`),
KEY `user_id` (`user_id`),
KEY `client_id` (`client_id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;
Update #2: Update the table names, to don't confuse, but it's not the issue. The CONNECTION table is created okay.
Query works:
SELECT * FROM `calls`
Query works:
SELECT * FROM `calls` WHERE `user_id`=X
Query return error:
SELECT * FROM `calls` ORDER BY `calldate`
Update #3: The MySQL was updated to veriosn 5.5.45, the type was changed to InnoDB and the charset was converted to UTF8. But no success.
PROBLEM SOLVED
Well, it's MariaDB bug, when I changed to FederatedX engine (which is basically little bit limited version of CONNECT), everything works as expected.
In your query you do
SELECT * FROM calls
but in your table structure you have
CREATE TABLE cdr
and both have calldate column. Check if you querying the right table.

Mysql Append table to add columns

I like to append a table to add column but without using alert table command
e.g.
This is the table which is missing some columns.
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `admin` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`username` varchar(20) NOT NULL,
`passwd` varchar(40) NOT NULL,
`isActive` tinyint(1) NOT NULL default '1',
`lastVisit` datetime NOT NULL default '0000-00-00 00:00:00',
`modifyAt` datetime NOT NULL,
`createdAt` datetime NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;
So if i run this query then it should automatically add missing columns into my tables
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `admin` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`username` varchar(20) NOT NULL,
`passwd` varchar(40) NOT NULL,
`name` varchar(100) NOT NULL,
`originalUser` tinyint(1) NOT NULL default '0',
`isActive` tinyint(1) NOT NULL default '1',
`lastVisit` datetime NOT NULL default '0000-00-00 00:00:00',
`modifyAt` datetime NOT NULL,
`createdAt` datetime NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;
Can this be possible to do without using alert table command ?
I understand your question as you want to add some columns to your table. Please be informed that the term row is usually related to the actual data in your table, not the columns itself. If my assumption is wrong, please clarify your question.
You cannot use CREATE TABLE for altering a table. It is there to create table,
and if it cannot create it, it will in most cases throw an error like you described. Another command exists for that reason: ALTER TABLE.
You might do it something like this.
(1) Create your table with your CREATE TABLE syntax above:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `admin` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`username` varchar(20) NOT NULL,
`passwd` varchar(40) NOT NULL,
`isActive` tinyint(1) NOT NULL default '1',
`lastVisit` datetime NOT NULL default '0000-00-00 00:00:00',
`modifyAt` datetime NOT NULL,
`createdAt` datetime NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;
(2) Use ALTER TABLE like this to make the modifications I think you want to have in your second statement (two more columns):
ALTER TABLE
ADD COLUMN `name` varchar(100) NOT NULL AFTER `passwd`,
ADD COLUMN `originalUser` tinyint(1) NOT NULL default '0' AFTER `name`;
Not related to your question, but I'd avoid column names like name, because if you don't escape them properly it'll throw you other errors (see reserved words).
