我需要更改现有数据库以添加列。因此,我也想更新UNIQUE字段以包含该新列。我正在尝试删除当前索引,但不断收到错误MySQL Cannot drop index needed in a foreign key constraint
MySQL Cannot drop index needed in a foreign key constraint
CREATE TABLE mytable_a ( ID TINYINT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY, Name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL, UNIQUE(Name) ) ENGINE=InnoDB; CREATE TABLE mytable_b ( ID TINYINT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY, Name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL, UNIQUE(Name) ) ENGINE=InnoDB; CREATE TABLE mytable_c ( ID TINYINT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY, Name VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL, UNIQUE(Name) ) ENGINE=InnoDB; CREATE TABLE `mytable` ( `ID` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `AID` tinyint(5) NOT NULL, `BID` tinyint(5) NOT NULL, `CID` tinyint(5) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`ID`), UNIQUE KEY `AID` (`AID`,`BID`,`CID`), KEY `BID` (`BID`), KEY `CID` (`CID`), CONSTRAINT `mytable_ibfk_1` FOREIGN KEY (`AID`) REFERENCES `mytable_a` (`ID`) ON DELETE CASCADE, CONSTRAINT `mytable_ibfk_2` FOREIGN KEY (`BID`) REFERENCES `mytable_b` (`ID`) ON DELETE CASCADE, CONSTRAINT `mytable_ibfk_3` FOREIGN KEY (`CID`) REFERENCES `mytable_c` (`ID`) ON DELETE CASCADE ) ENGINE=InnoDB; mysql> ALTER TABLE mytable DROP INDEX AID; ERROR 1553 (HY000): Cannot drop index 'AID': needed in a foreign key constraint
您必须删除外键。MySQL中的外键会在表上自动创建索引(该主题上有一个SO问题)。
ALTER TABLE mytable DROP FOREIGN KEY mytable_ibfk_1 ;
