  • another load data infile issue

    From DFS@nospam@dfs.com to comp.databases.mysql on Tue Aug 17 13:13:36 2021

    MariaDB allows NULLs in a FK field, but 'load data infile' insists on
    NOT NULL

    load data infile:
    "ERROR 1452 (23000): Cannot add or update a child row: a foreign key constraint fails (`db`.`table`, CONSTRAINT `ibfk_1` FOREIGN KEY
    (`fkcol`) REFERENCES `parenttable` (`parentcolumn`))


    MariaDB [db]> insert into tbl values (999999,'test',null);
    Query OK, 1 row affected (0.161 sec)

    (the third column is the FK column)
