I created the table as you have specified using MySQL Query Browser, then copied the SQL statements it generated below (I am using version 5.1.30-community): CREATE TABLE `client` ( `client_id` INTEGER UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `client_name` VARCHAR(20), `client_mobile` VARCHAR(15), `client_age` INTEGER UNSIGNED, `country` VARCHAR(50), `city` VARCHAR(50), PRIMARY KEY (`client_id`) ) ENGINE = MyISAM; And below is your query: mysql> create table client( -> client_id int unsigned not null auto_increament primary key, -> client_name varchar(20), -> client_mobile varchar(15), -> client_age int, -> country varchar(50), -> city varchar(50) -> ); Differences: 1. The auto_increment part 2. The primary key definition On 6/17/09, I. Ati <mueni0@gmail.com> wrote:

Chuck the '*not null clause in the definition of the client_id field, see if that helps.*

hi guyz am creating a database in a linux server the mysql version is 5.1.31, am trying to google for the solution to this problem but cant seem to get anything practical solution on how to solve this , in my localhost this mysql syntax seems to work well but in my server seems to be an issue yes they are the same version
changed the syntax as per the mysql version seems to be getting the same error still, any suggestion or ideas will appreciate
below is the error am getting
mysql> create table client( -> client_id int unsigned not null auto_increament primary key, -> client_name varchar(20), -> client_mobile varchar(15), -> client_age int, -> country varchar(50), -> city varchar(50) -> ); ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'auto_increament primary key, client_name varchar(20), client_mobile varchar(15),' at line 2
