Unknown table error on Update or Delete

Posted: Thu 17 Aug 2017 18:14

I am trying to either update a table or delete records based on an inner join or a where. I have tried several different ways to do this. To test I was getting the records I wanted, I did a select query. It works perfectly. When I change the query to either a delete or an update, I get an "unknown table" error. I have attached an image of my screen. I have also tried this as an inner join and still get the "unknown table" error. Any help is appreciated.

Hello,

Thanks for the post.

1) Please write USE you_database before UPDATE like the following:

Code: Select all

USE wordscrubbertest;

UPDATE aoswords ...
2) Try to run the following script to invoke information about the table:

Code: Select all

USE wordscrubbertest;
SHOW CREATE TABLE aoswords;
3) Could you provide server version by executing the following statement:

Code: Select all

select @@version;
Best Regards.
