I get this annoying error when I try to insert data from db1 to db2 in MaridaDB 10 using mysql CLI. This is while all the columns exist.
INSERT INTO db2.thread (threadid, title, postuserid, dateline, views)
SELECT `nid`, `title`, `uid`, `created`,
`comment` from db1.node where type = 'forum' and status = 1;
When I execute the same query in PHPMyAdmin, I get:
#1054 - Unknown column 'â€
I tried different syntax like 'like' etc. with no avail. Appreciate your hints
To fix the error above, simply add a quotation mark around the value. You can use both single quotes or double quotes as shown below: INSERT INTO users(username, display_name) VALUES ("jackolantern", 'Jack'); Now the INSERT statement should run without any error.
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. The error above is because there's no student_name column in the students table.
Looks like there are invisible garbage characters in your query.
Try retyping the query (don't copy and paste or you'll most likely include the garbage character) and it should work.
