SQL question: Insert isn't ..workign

[KoihimeNakamura]

So I'm inserting the following string:

INSERT INTO scGUsers (userName, userPass, userEmail) 
VALUES ("KoihimeNakamura", "deleteme", "test@example.com");

into

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `scGusers` (
  `userID` int(11) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `userName` varchar(255) COLLATE utf8_bin NOT NULL,
  `userPass` varchar(255) COLLATE utf8_bin NOT NULL,
  `userEmail` text COLLATE utf8_bin,
  `userPriv` tinyint(3) unsigned DEFAULT '1',
  PRIMARY KEY (`userID`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8 COLLATE=utf8_bin AUTO_INCREMENT=1 ;

When I do so in phpMyAdmin, it tells me the row ID is 11, but there's no rows in it at all.

Typing in COMMIT didn't help either.

The message from the server is:
1 rows affected, 0 rows found, query time X.

Any chance it is a case-sensitvity problem, with scGusers in the create and scGUsers in the insert?

What happens if you try it like this?

INSERT INTO scGUsers (userName, userPass, userEmail, userPriv)
VALUES ("KoihimeNakamura", "deleteme", "test@example.com",1);

Do you have more than one databases ?

 

[rjh01]

Do
select count(*)
from scGusers
Order by 1

both before and after the insert. Are there any secondary indexes? RI? What is the SQLCODE of the Insert statement?

Long long time since I did any Sql, but does the AUTO_INCREMENT thingy for userID cope with the very first insert into the table?

I assume this is MySQL.

Are the single quotes okay in the CREATE TABLE?

I thought one used single quotes for column names in the INSERT.

That works. I bet I need to specify default.

Do you have more than one databases ?

Yes, but I specify test in the connection string/use database line.

They apparently are now. Weird.

I notice that in your INSERT statement you try to insert character "1" into a tinyint* column. Unabogie inserts numeric 1 and that works. This might well be irrelevant, but after many years retired from the field such problem-solving still intrigues me.

(*shows how long I've been away - never even heard of tinyint )

 

[KoihimeNakamura]

It shouldn't matter as I insert through prepared statements, which *should* not do that silly thing.

I've just run these on my computer, it works absolutely fine. It creates the tables and inserts the row just fine.

phpMyAdmin is useless. Is it possible you can use a different front end?
