Field list mysql ошибка

I keep getting MySQL error #1054, when trying to perform this update query:

UPDATE MASTER_USER_PROFILE, TRAN_USER_BRANCH
SET MASTER_USER_PROFILE.fellow=`y`
WHERE MASTER_USER_PROFILE.USER_ID = TRAN_USER_BRANCH.USER_ID
AND TRAN_USER_BRANCH.BRANCH_ID = 17

It’s probably some syntax error, but I’ve tried using an inner join instead and other alterations, but I keep getting the same message:

Unknown column 'y' in 'field list'

Try using different quotes for «y» as the identifier quote character is the backtick (`). Otherwise MySQL «thinks» that you point to a column named «y».

See also MySQL 8 Documentation

Please use double-/single quotes for values, strings, etc.
Use backticks for column-names only.

Enclose any string to be passed to the MySQL server inside single quotes, e.g.:

$name = "my name"
$query = " INSERT INTO mytable VALUES ( 1 , '$name') "

Note that although the query is enclosed between double quotes, you must enclose any string in single quotes.

You might check your choice of quotes (use double-/ single quotes for values, strings, etc and backticks for column-names).

Since you only want to update the table master_user_profile I’d recommend a nested query:

UPDATE
   master_user_profile
SET
   master_user_profile.fellow = 'y'
WHERE
   master_user_profile.user_id IN (
      SELECT tran_user_branch.user_id
      FROM tran_user_branch WHERE tran_user_branch.branch_id = 17);

Just sharing my experience on this. I was having this same issue. The insert or update statement is correct. And I also checked the encoding. The column does exist.
Then! I found out that I was referencing the column in my Trigger.
You should also check your trigger see if any script is referencing the column you are having the problem with.

In my case, it was caused by an unseen trailing space at the end of the column name. Just check if you really use «y» or «y » instead.

While working on a .Net app build with EF code first, I got this error message when trying to apply my migration where I had a Sql("UPDATE tableName SET columnName = value"); statement.

Turns out I misspelled the columnName.

In my case, the Hibernate was looking for columns in a snake case, like create_date, while the columns in the DB were in the camel case, e.g., createDate.
Adding

spring:
  jpa:
    hibernate:
      naming: # must tell spring/jpa/hibernate to use the column names as specified, not snake case
        physical-strategy: org.hibernate.boot.model.naming.PhysicalNamingStrategyStandardImpl

to the application.ymlhelped fix the problem.

In my case, I used a custom table alias for the FROM table, but I used the default table alias (MyTable) in the field list instead of the custom table alias (t1). For example, I needed to change this…

mysql> SELECT MyTable.`id` FROM `MyTable` t1;

…to this…

mysql> SELECT t1.`id` FROM `MyTable` t1;

A query like this will also cause the error:

SELECT table1.id FROM table2

Where the table is specified in column select and not included in the from clause.

При использовании ряда CMS (например, DLE, vBulletin и др.) временами возникает ошибка mysql с номером 1054.

Текст ошибки Unknown column ‘ИМЯ_СТОЛБЦА’ in ‘field list’ в переводе означает «Неизвестный столбец ‘ИМЯ_СТОЛБЦА’ в списке полей.«. Такая ошибка возникает в том случае, если попытаться выбрать (запрос вида select) или изменить (запрос вида update) данные из столбца, которого не существует. Ошибка чаще всего возникает из-за стoронних модулей. Перечислим несколько возможных причин:

  • установлен модуль, расчитанный на более новую версию CMS, чем используемая;
  • при установке модуля не выполнились операции изменения структуры таблиц;
  • после установки сторонних модулей выполнено обновление системы, которое привело к изменению структуры таблиц; при этом модуль не был обновлен на совместимый;
  • Из резервной копии восстановлена более старая база данных, а файлы сайта остались в новой версии.

Пример №1:
Имеется таблица сотрудников подразделения.
Поля: id, фамилия, имя, отчество, год рождения, наличие высшего образования.

create table if not exists employee
(
`id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment primary key,
`surname` varchar(255) not null,
`name` varchar(255) not null,
`patronymic` varchar(255) not null,
`year_of_birth` int unsigned default 0,
`higher_education` tinyint unsigned default 0
) ENGINE=MyISAM;
 

Если обратиться к этой таблице с запросом на выборку несуществующего поля, например пола сотрудника по фамилии Власенко, то результатом будет вышеуказанная ошибка:

mysql> select sex from employee where surname=’Власенко’;

ERROR 1054 (42S22): Unknown column ‘sex’ in ‘field list’

Пример №2:
Воспользуемся той же таблицей из примера 1. Если попытаться указать мужской пол у сотрудника по имени Власенко (выяснилось его имя и стало ясно, что это мужчина), то результатом будет та же ошибка:

mysql> update employee set sex=1 where surname=’Власенко’;

ERROR 1054 (42S22): Unknown column ‘sex’ in ‘field list’

Способы борьбы

Самый корректный способ борьбы в устранении причины ошибки. Например, все обновления сайта рекомендуем выполнять сначала на копии сайта и если ошибок нет, то повторять на рабочем сайте. Если при обновлении возникла ошибка, следует найти способ сделать обновление корректно с учетом версий сторонних модулей.

Если по каким-то причинам корректно избежать ошибки не получилось, можно прибегнуть к симптоматическому лечению, которое состоит в простом добавлении недостающих полей в таблицу.

Запрос на добавление:

ALTER TABLE employee ADD COLUMN sex ENUM(‘male’, ‘female’) DEFAULT ‘female’
 

Что в переводе означает «Изменить таблицу employee, добавив столбец `пол`, назначив ему тип перечисление(мужской/женский) по умолчанию мужской».

При таком добавлении столбца необходимо учитывать, что у всех записей в таблице в столбце sex появится значение по умолчанию. Если добавлять такой столбец как пол (который не может быть равен null и обязательно присутствует у каждого человека), то просто необходимо сразу же
после этого прописать нужное значение во все записи в таблице. В данном случае с добавлением столбца «пол» нужно будет поменять значение на male у всех сотрудников мужского пола.

Трудности могут возникнуть из-за того, что часто нужно самостоятельно определять тип добавляемого столбца.

Примеры:

a) Запрос:

SELECT faqname, faqparent, displayorder, volatile FROM faq where product
IN (», ‘vbulletin’, ‘watermark’, ‘cyb_sfa’, ‘access_post_and_days’);

Ответ сервера:

Invalid SQL: SELECT faqname, faqparent, displayorder, volatile FROM faq where
product IN (», ‘vbulletin’, ‘watermark’, ‘cyb_sfa’, ‘access_post_and_days’);


MySQL Error: Unknown column ‘faqname’ in ‘field list’

Error Number: 1054

Отсутствует столбец faqname, добавим его. Логика подсказывает, что если имя — то это скорее всего символы, а не целое число или тип datetime. Количество символов заранее, конечно, неизвестно, но редко имя бывает больше чем 255 символов. Поэтому добавим столбец faqname с указанием типа varchar(255):

ALTER TABLE faq ADD faqname varchar(255)

б) Запроc:

UPDATE dle_usergroups set group_name=‘Журналисты’, allow_html=‘0’ WHERE id=‘3’;

Ответ сервера:

Invalid SQL: UPDATE dle_usergroups set group_name=’Журналисты’, allow_html=’0′ WHERE id=’3′;

MySQL Error: Unknown column ‘allow_html’ in ‘field list’

Error Number: 1054

Отсутствует столбец allow_html, добавим его. Смотрим на то значение, которое туда пытается вставить запрос, видим 0. Скорее всего этот столбец может принимать два значения — разрешить/не разрешить (1 или 0), то есть однобайтное целое число вполне подойдёт. Поэтому добавим столбец allow_html с указанием типа tinyint:

ALTER TABLE faq ADD allow_html tinyint

Таким образом можно составить шаблон для «лечения» таких проблем: ALTER TABLE [a] ADD [b] [c];, где

a — имя таблицы, откуда выбираются (или где обновляются) данные;

b — имя столбца, который нужно добавить;

c — тип данных.

Примеры (во всех примерах идёт работа с таблицей dle_usergroups):

1) Запрос:

UPDATE dle_usergroups set group_name=‘Журналисты’, allow_html=‘0’ WHERE id=‘3’;

Ответ сервера:

Invalid SQL: UPDATE dle_usergroups set group_name=’Журналисты’, allow_html=’0′ WHERE id=’3′;

MySQL Error: Unknown column ‘allow_html’ in ‘field list’

Error Number: 1054

Решение:

a=dle_usergroups, b=allow_html, c=tinyint, то есть

ALTER TABLE dle_usergroups ADD allow_html tinyint

Для того, чтобы выполнить исправляющий ошибку запрос, необходимо воспользоваться каким-либо mysql-клиентом. В стандартной поставке mysql всегда идёт консольный клиент с названием mysql (в windows mysql.exe). Для того, чтобы подключиться к mysql выполните команду

mysql -hНАЗВАНИЕ_ХОСТА -uИМЯ_ПОЛЬЗОВАТЕЛЯ -pПАРОЛЬ ИМЯ_БАЗЫ_ДАННЫХ,

после чего введите необходимый запрос и точку с запятой после него в появившейся командной строке.

В том случае, если работа происходит на чужом сервере (например, арендуется хостинг) и нет возможности воспользоваться mysql-клиентом из командной строки (не всегда хостеры представляют такую возможность), можно воспользоваться тем инструментом, который предоставляет хостер — например, phpMyAdmin, и в нём ввести нужный sql-запрос.

В то же время наиболее подходящий инструмент для работы с mysql — это MySQL Workbench — разработка создателей mysql с достаточно удобным пользовательским интерфейсом.

Если же нет возможности подключиться к mysql напрямую (например из-за ограничений файрвола), то в ряде случаев возможно удалённо подключиться к MySQL-серверу через SSH-туннель.

2) Запрос:

UPDATE dle_usergroups set group_name=‘Журналисты’, allow_subscribe=‘0’ WHERE id=‘3’;

Ответ сервера:

Invalid SQL: UPDATE dle_usergroups set group_name=’Журналисты’, allow_subscribe=’0′ WHERE id=’3′;

MySQL Error: Unknown column ‘allow_subscribe’ in ‘field list’

Error Number: 1054

Решение:
a=dle_usergroups, b=allow_subscribe, c=tinyint, то есть

ALTER TABLE dle_usergroups ADD allow_subscribe tinyint

3) Запрос:

SELECT faqname, faqparent, displayorder, volatile FROM faq where product IN (», ‘vbulletin’, ‘watermark’, ‘cyb_sfa’, ‘access_post_and_days’);

Oтвет сервера:

InvalidSQL: SELECT faqname, faqparent, displayorder, volatile FROM faq where product IN (», ‘vbulletin’, ‘watermark’, ‘cyb_sfa’, ‘access_post_and_days’);

MySQL Error: Unknown column ‘faqname’ in ‘field list’

Error Number: 1054

Решение:
a= faq, b=faqname, c=varchar(255), то есть

ALTER TABLE faq ADD faqname varchar(255)

Результат

В результате добавления необходимого поля ошибка должна исчезнуть. Однако, существует вероятность того, что в структуре таблиц не хватало несколько столбцов: в этом случае ошибка повторится с указанием другого имени столбца, для которого потребуется повторить процедуру. Помните, что добавление незаполненных столбцов угаданного типа не всегда будет соответствовать задуманной логике приложения и может нарушить часть функциональности.

The MySQL unknown column in field list error happens when you put a column name in your SQL script that can’t be found by MySQL.

For example, suppose you have a table named students with the following data:

+----+---------+---------+-------+--------+
| id | name    | subject | score | gender |
+----+---------+---------+-------+--------+
|  1 | Sarah   | Math    |     9 | male   |
|  2 | Natalia | Math    |     8 | female |
|  3 | Christ  | English |     5 | male   |
+----+---------+---------+-------+--------+

When you try to insert into a column that doesn’t exist in the table, MySQL will throw the said error:

INSERT INTO students(student_name) VALUES (Michael);

-- ERROR 1054 (42S22): Unknown column 'student_name' in 'field list'

The error above is because there’s no student_name column in the students table.

Next, the error can also be triggered because you didn’t use quotes for the string values as follows:

INSERT INTO students(name) VALUES (Michael);

-- ERROR 1054 (42S22): Unknown column 'Michael' in 'field list'

The value Michael must be wrapped in quotations ('' or "") or MySQL will think you are trying to insert values from another column to the target column.

The error can also be triggered by other things that make MySQL think that your column doesn’t exist.

One example is that you may trigger the error when calling a variable without the @ symbol as shown below:

SET @myVar="Hello";
SELECT myVar;

-- ERROR 1054 (42S22): Unknown column 'myVar' in 'field list'

Another thing that could trigger the error is that you’re using backticks to wrap literal values, as in the following UPDATE statement:

UPDATE students SET subject = `English` WHERE id = 1;

-- ERROR 1054 (42S22): Unknown column 'English' in 'field list'

The English value for the subject field above should be wrapped by quotations (single or double) instead of backticks.

The error can also be triggered when you have a SELECT query that has different tables between the SELECT clause and the FROM clause as shown below:

SELECT students.name FROM cities;

-- ERROR 1054 (42S22): Unknown column 'students.name' in 'field list'

This is because you are trying to query a column owned by students table from the cities table, which doesn’t match.

Finally, the error can also be caused by invisible characters lurking in your script that can’t be seen when you copy and paste it from other sources.

The only way to remove invisible characters is by rewriting the statements manually.

Summary

The tutorial above has listed the most common cause for MySQL unknown column in field list error.

There are many variations of SQL statements that can cause this error, so this error doesn’t really help you find the cause without understanding how MySQL syntax works.

I hope this tutorial has given you some guidelines on fixing the error. Good luck! 👍

MySQL Error #1054 is a common error message that occurs when the specified column in a SQL statement doesn’t exist in the table or doesn’t match the name in the field list. The error message is displayed when executing SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE statements that reference a non-existent column. This error can also occur when a column is present in a table but not in the SELECT statement or when a column is referenced in a WHERE clause but is not present in the table. It is important to resolve this issue, as it prevents the successful execution of SQL statements and may result in incorrect data being retrieved or stored in the database.

Method 1: Check for Typos in Column Name

When encountering the MySQL error #1054 — Unknown column in ‘Field List’, one possible solution is to check for typos in the column name. Here are the steps to do so:

  1. Double-check the column name in your query and make sure it matches the actual column name in your database table.
SELECT column_name FROM table_name WHERE condition;
  1. If the column name is correct, try enclosing it in backticks (`) to avoid any syntax errors.
SELECT `column_name` FROM table_name WHERE condition;
  1. If you’re still getting the error, try running the DESCRIBE command on your table to see the actual column names and data types.
  1. Compare the column names from the DESCRIBE command with the column names in your query to ensure they match.
SELECT column1, column2 FROM table_name WHERE condition;

By following these steps, you should be able to fix the MySQL error #1054 — Unknown column in ‘Field List’ caused by typos in the column name.

Method 2: Verify Column Exists in Table

To fix the MySQL error #1054 — Unknown column in ‘Field List’, you can use the «Verify Column Exists in Table» method. Here are the steps to do it:

  1. Check the table name and column name that cause the error. Make sure they are correct.
  2. Verify if the column exists in the table using the «SHOW COLUMNS» command. This command will return a list of columns in the table, including their data type and other information.
SHOW COLUMNS FROM table_name;
  1. If the column does not exist, add it to the table using the «ALTER TABLE» command. Here is an example:
ALTER TABLE table_name ADD COLUMN column_name column_definition;

Replace «table_name» with the name of the table and «column_name» with the name of the column you want to add. «column_definition» is the data type and other specifications for the column.

  1. If the column exists, but has a different name or data type, update it using the «ALTER TABLE» command. Here is an example:
ALTER TABLE table_name CHANGE COLUMN old_column_name new_column_name column_definition;

Replace «table_name» with the name of the table, «old_column_name» with the name of the existing column, «new_column_name» with the new name for the column, and «column_definition» with the new data type and other specifications for the column.

  1. Once you have added or updated the column, try running the query again to see if the error is resolved.

Here is an example of using the «SHOW COLUMNS» command:

SHOW COLUMNS FROM customers;

This will return a list of columns in the «customers» table, including their data type and other information.

Here is an example of adding a new column to the «customers» table:

ALTER TABLE customers ADD COLUMN email VARCHAR(255);

This will add a new column called «email» with a data type of VARCHAR(255) to the «customers» table.

Here is an example of updating an existing column in the «customers» table:

ALTER TABLE customers CHANGE COLUMN phone_number phone VARCHAR(20);

This will change the name of the «phone_number» column to «phone» and update its data type to VARCHAR(20) in the «customers» table.

Remember to always back up your database before making any changes to the table structure.

Method 3: Use Backticks to Specify Column Name

To fix the MySQL error #1054 — Unknown column in ‘Field List’, you can use backticks to specify the column name. Backticks are used to enclose column names that contain special characters or reserved words. Here’s how to do it:

SELECT `column_name` FROM `table_name` WHERE `column_name` = 'value';

In the above example, we have used backticks to specify the column name. Make sure to use backticks only around the column name, not the table name or the value.

Here’s another example:

UPDATE `table_name` SET `column_name` = 'new_value' WHERE `column_name` = 'old_value';

Again, we have used backticks around the column name in the SET clause and the WHERE clause.

You can also use backticks in combination with aliases:

SELECT `column_name` AS `alias_name` FROM `table_name`;

In this example, we have used backticks to enclose the column name and the alias name.

In summary, to fix the MySQL error #1054 — Unknown column in ‘Field List’, use backticks to enclose the column name in your SQL query. Make sure to use backticks only around the column name, not the table name or the value.

Method 4: Update SELECT Statement with Correct Column Name

To fix the MySQL error #1054 — Unknown column in ‘Field List’, you can use an Update SELECT statement with the correct column name. Here’s how you can do it:

Step 1: Identify the incorrect column name in your query.

Step 2: Update your query with the correct column name.

For example, let’s say you have the following query:

SELECT name, age, email FROM users WHERE user_id = 1;

And you get the error message:

ERROR 1054 (42S22): Unknown column 'email' in 'field list'

This means that the column name ’email’ is incorrect. To fix this, you can use an Update SELECT statement with the correct column name ‘user_email’:

SELECT name, age, user_email FROM users WHERE user_id = 1;

Here’s another example:

UPDATE users SET user_name = 'John' WHERE user_id = 1;

If you get the error message:

ERROR 1054 (42S22): Unknown column 'user_name' in 'field list'

This means that the column name ‘user_name’ is incorrect. To fix this, you can use an Update SELECT statement with the correct column name ‘name’:

UPDATE users SET name = 'John' WHERE user_id = 1;

In summary, to fix the MySQL error #1054 — Unknown column in ‘Field List’, you need to identify the incorrect column name in your query and update it with the correct column name using an Update SELECT statement.
