What is

MySQL 1122: Incorrect table name.

 ?

When encountering the error 1122: Incorrect table name in MySQL, the user should immediately execute the following actions for investigation:

  1. Check the Query Syntax:


- Ensure that the table name in the query is spelled correctly and matches the actual table name in the database.

  1. Verify Table Existence:


- Run `SHOW TABLES;` to list all tables in the current database to verify the existence of the table you are trying to access.

  1. Check for Case Sensitivity:


- MySQL table names are case sensitive on some platforms (like Unix-based systems). Ensure the case matches. Use the exact case as shown in the `SHOW TABLES;` result.

  1. Use Backticks Around Table Names:


- If the table name contains special characters or is a reserved keyword, enclose the table name in backticks (`) in your query. For example, ``SELECT * FROM `table-name`;``.

  1. Confirm Current Database:


- Run `SELECT DATABASE();` to confirm you are operating in the correct database where the table exists.

  1. Database and Table Collation Check:


- If applicable, check the database and table collation and character set by executing `SHOW CREATE DATABASE yourdatabasename;` and `SHOW CREATE TABLE yourtablename;`. Ensure they are compatible or as expected.

  1. Check for Corrupted Tables:


- If you suspect the table might be corrupted, run a table check using `CHECK TABLE tablename;`. If issues are found, consider running a repair with `REPAIR TABLE tablename;`.

By following these steps, the user can identify and possibly correct the issue leading to the "Incorrect table name" error in MySQL.
