Error renaming a column in MySQL

mysql database alter-table mysql-error-1025

Lone Ranger is very close... in fact, you also need to specify the datatype of the renamed column. For example:

ALTER TABLE `xyz` CHANGE `manufacurerid` `manufacturerid` INT;

Remember :

mysql database alter-table mysql-error-1025

The standard MySQL rename statement is:

ALTER [ONLINE | OFFLINE] [IGNORE] TABLE tbl_name CHANGE [COLUMN] old_col_name new_col_name column_definition [FIRST|AFTER col_name]

For this example:

ALTER TABLE xyz CHANGE manufacurerid manufacturerid datatype(length)

Reference: MYSQL 5.1 ALTER TABLE Syntax

mysql database alter-table mysql-error-1025

FOR MYSQL:

ALTER TABLE `table_name` CHANGE `old_name` `new_name` VARCHAR(255) NOT NULL;

FOR ORACLE:

ALTER TABLE `table_name` RENAME COLUMN `old_name` TO `new_name`;
