  • Error Code: 1822. Failed to add the foreign key constaint. Missing index for constraint

    4 answers




so I was creating a database and this was the error I kept getting on my last table




ERROR 1822 (HY000): Failed to add the foreign key constraint. Missing index for constraint 'invoice_ibfk_3' in the referenced table 'ITEMS'




I'm still not sure where exactly I'm going wrong



This is the rest of my SQL code:



    mysql> create table CUSTOMER(
-> Customer_ID int AUTO_INCREMENT,
-> Customer_FName varchar(20),
-> Customer_LName varchar(20),
-> Address varchar(20),
-> Phone_No varchar(20),
-> primary key(Customer_ID));
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.06 sec)

mysql> create table FLORIST(
-> Florist_ID varchar(10),
-> FName varchar(20),
-> LName varchar(20),
-> Contact_No varchar(20),
-> Username varchar(20),
-> Password varchar(100),
-> primary key(Florist_ID));
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.02 sec)

mysql> create table ITEMS(
-> Item_ID int AUTO_INCREMENT,
-> Price int,
-> Event varchar(20),
-> Name varchar(20),
-> Stock int,
-> primary key(Item_ID, Event));
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.05 sec)

mysql> create table ORDERS(
-> Order_ID int AUTO_INCREMENT,
-> Customer_ID int,
-> Florist_ID varchar(10),
-> Order_Date date,
-> Due_Date date,
-> primary key(Order_ID),
-> foreign key(Customer_ID) references CUSTOMER(Customer_ID) on delete cascade on update cascade,
-> foreign key(Florist_ID) references FLORIST(Florist_ID) on delete cascade on update cascade);


And this is the last table that's problematic:



mysql> create table INVOICE(
-> Order_ID int,
-> Item_ID int,
-> Quantity int,
-> Price_Per_Item int,
-> Event varchar(20),
-> foreign key(Order_ID) references ORDERS(Order_ID) on delete cascade on update cascade,
-> foreign key(Item_ID) references ITEMS(Item_ID) on delete cascade on update cascade,
-> foreign key(Event) references ITEMS(Event) on delete cascade on update cascade);

Create separate index on ITEMS.Item_ID (you have currently composite index on Item_ID and event)






share|improve this answer
























  • Oh, I see, so I should declare it as primary key(Items_ID) separately and not paired with Event?

  • Yes either just add another index (if you want that paired primary key)
