I am trying to create a table in Drupal database using hook_schema function but I am getting the PDO exception error which I could not resolve. It would be great if you could provide me an solution to my issue
PDOException: SQLSTATE[42000]: Syntax error or access violation: 1064
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 'DEFAULT '' COMMENT
'first name of the user', `lname` VARCHAR DEFAULT '' COMMENT' at line 3:
CREATE TABLE {mage_user} ( `uid` INT unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment COMMENT
'The foreign identifier for a mage user.', `fname` VARCHAR DEFAULT ''
COMMENT 'first name of the user', `lname` VARCHAR DEFAULT '' COMMENT
'last name of the user', `address1` VARCHAR(255) DEFAULT '' COMMENT
'adress line 1', `address2` VARCHAR(255) DEFAULT '' COMMENT 'adress line 2',
`postcode` VARCHAR(7) DEFAULT '' COMMENT 'postcode', `gender` VARCHAR(6)
DEFAULT '' COMMENT 'gender' ) ENGINE = InnoDB DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8
COMMENT 'The base table for mage user.'; Array ( ) in db_create_table()
(line 2688 of E:\Server\drupal\includes\database\database.inc).
I am using
Apache/2.2.22 (Win32) PHP/5.3.10 MySQL client version: mysqlnd 5.0.8-dev - 20102224 - $Revision: 321634 $
MySQL server version 5.5.21
and my schema definition is
function mageacc_schema() {
$schema['mageuser'] = array(
'description' => 'The base table for mage user.',
'fields' => array(
'uid' => array(
'description' => 'The foreign identifier for a mage user.',
'type' => 'serial',
'not null' => TRUE,
),
'fname' => array(
'description' => 'first name of the user',
'type' => 'varchar',
'lenght' => 255,
'default' => '',
),
'lname' => array(
'description' => 'last name of the user',
'type' => 'varchar',
'lenght' => 255,
'default' => '',
),
'address1' => array(
'description' => 'adress line 1',
'type' => 'varchar',
'length' => 255,
'default' => '',
),
'address2' => array(
'description' => 'adress line 2',
'type' => 'varchar',
'length' => 255,
'default' => '',
),
'postcode' => array(
'description' => 'postcode',
'type' => 'varchar',
'length' => 7,
'default' => '',
),
'gender'=>array(
'description' => 'gender',
'type' => 'varchar',
'length' => 6,
'default' => '',
),
),
);
return $schema;
}
Thanks in Advance
I spotted a few typos with the 'length' property. Try fixing those first in fname and lname to see if it works.
