查询:

ALTER TABLE `phppos_permissions_actions` CHANGE `module_id` `module_id` VARCHAR(100) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL, CHANGE `action_id` `action_id` VARCHAR(100) CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NOT NULL

错误:

#1832 - Cannot change column 'module_id': used in a foreign key constraint 'phppos_permissions_actions_ibfk_1'

(在mysql 5.5中没有报错)

我让它工作的唯一方法是:

SET foreign_key_checks = 0;

5.6 有什么变化？这是错误吗？

最佳答案

这显然是对 MySQL 5.6 的改进，尽管实现似乎有点过于严格。

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/alter-table.html说:

As of 5.6.7, the server prohibits changes to foreign key columns with the potential to cause loss of referential integrity. A workaround is to use ALTER TABLE ... DROP FOREIGN KEY before changing the column definition and ALTER TABLE ... ADD FOREIGN KEY afterward.

发行说明说这与 http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=46599 有关

没关系，不过...

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/create-table-foreign-keys.html说:

Corresponding columns in the foreign key and the referenced key must have similar data types. The size and sign of integer types must be the same. The length of string types need not be the same. For nonbinary (character) string columns, the character set and collation must be the same.

回复你的评论:

这其实并不矛盾。您仍然可以在 MySQL 5.6 中创建具有不同字符串长度的外键。

create table foo ( p varchar(20) primary key );
create table bar ( f varchar(10), foreign key (f) references foo (p) );

只要不会截断数据，您就可以修改列。

alter table bar modify column f varchar(20); /* increasing string length */
Query OK

但是如果它可能会丢失数据，则不能修改列。

alter table bar modify column f varchar(5); /* decreasing string length */
ERROR 1832 (HY000): Cannot change column 'f': 
used in a foreign key constraint 'bar_ibfk_1'

正如您发现的那样，您可以使用 foreign_check_checks=0 禁用外键检查，或者使用 ALTER TABLE 删除约束，然后在修改列后重新创建约束。

关于mysql 5.6 外键约束错误； 5.5 没有出现，我们在Stack Overflow上找到一个类似的问题： https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17015844/
