Are the other fields in the update statement actually changing the
data? I don't know for sure, but if the data on disk is the same as
the update statement, mysql won't actually update the record, and
therefore might not update the last_updated field also. Just a
thought.
Yes, I understand that one concept. I have seen it before.... If you do
an update on a record but the actually values that you are passing in
the statement are the exact values as were there before, no update to
the timestamp field is made because none of the records values actually
changed....
But no, that is not my situation. I've tested it.... and I am actually
changing the values in the table (of course not specifying a new value
for the TIMESTAMP field) but still the TIMESTAMP field doesn't auto-update.
What disturbes me is that it works fine in one particular table but
all the others it works.
