Fix MySQL Error #1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax… near 'TYPE=MyISAM?
This error occurs when we use TYPE for ENGINE NAME. The error is as follows −
mysql> create table DemoTable1836
(
ClientId int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
ClientName varchar(20)
)Type=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=1;
ERROR 1064 (42000): 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 'Type=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=1' at line 5
Now, in MySQL 8, you can use ENGINE instead of Type. Let us first create a table −
mysql> create table DemoTable1836
(
ClientId int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
ClientName varchar(20)
)ENGINE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=1;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
Insert some records in the table using insert command −
mysql> insert into DemoTable1836(ClientName) values('Chris');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable1836(ClientName) values('David');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable1836(ClientName) values('Mike');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> insert into DemoTable1836(ClientName) values('Sam');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)Display all records from the table using select statement −
mysql> select * from DemoTable1836;
This will produce the following output −
+----------+------------+
| ClientId | ClientName |
+----------+------------+
| 1 | Chris |
| 2 | David |
| 3 | Mike |
| 4 | Sam |
+----------+------------+
4 rows in set (0.00 sec)
