RE: Table creation fail

[David Stoltz]

Actually,

 

That table isn't supposed to have a PK, so I removed that, and it
works...same effect you suggested.

 

Thanks!

Hi, 

default cannot be used with primary key.

mysql> CREATE TABLE `testresults` (
    ->
    -> `id_employees` INTEGER DEFAULT NULL ,
    -> `id_test_test` INTEGER DEFAULT NULL ,
    -> `testdate` DATE DEFAULT NULL ,
    -> `result` VARCHAR( 10 ) DEFAULT NULL ,
    -> `resultsdescription` MEDIUMTEXT DEFAULT NULL ,
    -> `resultsdate` DATE DEFAULT NULL ,
    -> `nextdate` DATE DEFAULT NULL ,
    -> `ptlevel` VARCHAR( 10 ) DEFAULT NULL ,
    -> `givenhere` INTEGER not null primary key);
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.11 sec)

Hi Folks,



I use an online SQL Design tool to design my tables, etc. This generates
script code that I can run in phpMySQL to create the tables, etc.



The below code is causing an error - see below:



CREATE TABLE `testresults` (

`id_employees` INTEGER DEFAULT NULL ,
`id_test_test` INTEGER DEFAULT NULL ,
`testdate` DATE DEFAULT NULL ,
`result` VARCHAR( 10 ) DEFAULT NULL ,
`resultsdescription` MEDIUMTEXT DEFAULT NULL ,
`resultsdate` DATE DEFAULT NULL ,
`nextdate` DATE DEFAULT NULL ,
`ptlevel` VARCHAR( 10 ) DEFAULT NULL ,
`givenhere` INTEGER DEFAULT NULL ,
PRIMARY KEY ( )

);

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 11



The bolded line above (resultsdate line) seems to be causing the
problem....nothing looks wrong to me....



Any ideas?



Thanks!
