When you execute the update/delete request in MySQL workbench and you got the message error as:
You are using safe update mode and you tried to update a table without a WHERE that uses a KEY column
And in MySQL Workbench also mention how we solve this issue as well by following message:
To disable safe mode, toggle the option in Preferences -> SQL Editor -> Query Editor and reconnect
Every found that kind of error when trying to update rows in MySQL? It’s because you tried to update a table without a WHERE that uses a KEY column. In my case, I don’t use even WHERE clause:
|
1
2
3
|
delete from order_detail;
delete from order;
|
Any way, the quick fix is to add SET SQL_SAFE_UPDATES=0; before your update/delete query.
|
1
2
3
4
|
SET SQL_SAFE_UPDATES=0;
delete from order_detail;
delete from order;
|
Or follow what MySQL Workbench mentioned as here:
To disable safe mode, toggle the option in Preferences -> SQL Editor -> Query Editor and reconnect
Here is the screenshot in MySQL Workbench 5.2.40 CE
