ERROR Cannot add or update a child row a foreign key constraint fails

+1 vote

I have created tables in MySQL Workbench as shown below :

ORDRE table:

CREATE TABLE Ordre (
  OrdreID   INT NOT NULL,
  OrdreDato DATE DEFAULT NULL,
  KundeID   INT  DEFAULT NULL,
  CONSTRAINT Ordre_pk PRIMARY KEY (OrdreID),
  CONSTRAINT Ordre_fk FOREIGN KEY (KundeID) REFERENCES Kunde (KundeID)
)
  ENGINE = InnoDB;

PRODUKT table:

CREATE TABLE Produkt (
  ProduktID          INT NOT NULL,
  ProduktBeskrivelse VARCHAR(100) DEFAULT NULL,
  ProduktFarge       VARCHAR(20)  DEFAULT NULL,
  Enhetpris          INT          DEFAULT NULL,
  CONSTRAINT Produkt_pk PRIMARY KEY (ProduktID)
)
  ENGINE = InnoDB;

and ORDRELINJE table:

CREATE TABLE Ordrelinje (
  Ordre         INT NOT NULL,
  Produkt       INT NOT NULL,
  AntallBestilt INT DEFAULT NULL,
  CONSTRAINT Ordrelinje_pk PRIMARY KEY (Ordre, Produkt),
  CONSTRAINT Ordrelinje_fk FOREIGN KEY (Ordre) REFERENCES Ordre (OrdreID),
  CONSTRAINT Ordrelinje_fk1 FOREIGN KEY (Produkt) REFERENCES Produkt (ProduktID)
)
  ENGINE = InnoDB;

so when I try to insert values into ORDRELINJE table i get:

Error Code: 1452. Cannot add or update a child row: a foreign key constraint fails (srdjank.Ordrelinje, CONSTRAINT Ordrelinje_fk FOREIGN KEY (Ordre) REFERENCES Ordre (OrdreID))

How to fix it?

Hello @kartik,

You are getting this constraint check because Ordre table does not have reference OrdreID provided in insert command.

To insert value in Ordrelinje, you first have to enter value in Ordre table and use same OrdreID in Orderlinje table.

Or you can remove not null constraint and insert a NULL value in it.

Hope it helps!!
Thank you!!
