MySQL 1113: Column has no default value.

When encountering the error "1113: Column has no default value" in MySQL, follow these actions:

  1. Identify the column and table causing the error. This information is usually provided in the error message itself.



  1. Check if the column in question is supposed to have a default value. Use the following command to get the table structure, which includes column default values:


DESCRIBE yourtablename;

  1. If the column is supposed to have a default value but doesn't, add a default value to it using the following command (replace `columnname`, `yourtablename`, and `defaultvalue` with the actual column name, table name, and the default value you want to assign):


ALTER TABLE yourtablename ALTER COLUMN columnname SET DEFAULT 'defaultvalue';

  1. If the column is not supposed to have a default value and your insert/update statement relies on providing a value for this column, modify your insert/update statement to include a value for this column.



  1. If modifying the application's insert/update statements is not immediately feasible, and if it is acceptable based on your application logic, you can set a temporary default value as shown in step 3, to quickly resolve the error. However, make sure to revisit this and implement a proper fix as soon as possible.



Perform these steps to address the immediate issue of the "1113: Column has no default value" error in MySQL.
