当外键存在时，为什么“外键约束失败"?

Why #39;foreign key constraint fails#39; when foreign key exists?(当外键存在时，为什么“外键约束失败?)

问题描述

我有一个简单的查询

UPDATE `t_timecard_detail` SET  `timeoff_request_id` = 'adad8e0d-c22b-41c3-a460-6cf982729299' WHERE `id` = 'cfc7a0a1-4e03-46a4-af89-069a0661cf55'; 

这个错误

ERROR 1452 (23000): Cannot add or update a child row: a foreign key constraint fails (`demo1_timeapp`.`t_timecard_detail`, CONSTRAINT `timeoff_request_id_refs_id_48fe5c4` FOREIGN KEY (`timeoff_request_id`) REFERENCES `t_timeoff_request` (`id`))

约束是

CONSTRAINT `timeoff_request_id_refs_id_48fe5c4` FOREIGN KEY (`timeoff_request_id`) REFERENCES `t_timeoff_request` (`id`)

虽然 ID 'adad8e0d-c22b-41c3-a460-6cf982729299' 存在于 t_timeoff_request 表中

though the ID 'adad8e0d-c22b-41c3-a460-6cf982729299' exists in t_timeoff_request table

mysql> select `id`  from t_timeoff_request where `id`='adad8e0d-c22b-41c3-a460-6cf982729299';
+--------------------------------------+
| id                                   |
+--------------------------------------+
| adad8e0d-c22b-41c3-a460-6cf982729299 |
+--------------------------------------+

所以我不确定为什么当外键存在时mysql说'外键约束失败'?

So I am not sure why mysql says 'foreign key constraint fails' when the foreign key exists?

mysql版本:

$ mysql --version
mysql  Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.1.41, for debian-linux-gnu (i486) using readline 6.1

看起来一个表有 ENGINE=MyISAM 和其他 innodb

Looks like one table has ENGINE=MyISAM and other innodb

推荐答案

我认为这是一个错误.MySQL 不应允许您从 InnoDB 添加对 MyISAM 表的 FOREIGN KEY 引用，因为 MyISAM 引擎不是事务性的，而 InnoDb 是.

I think it's a bug. MySQL shouldn't allow You to add FOREIGN KEY referencing to MyISAM table from InnoDB because MyISAM engine isn't transactional, InnoDb is.

Try:
ALTER TABLE t_timeoff_request ENGINE=InnoDB;
