MySQL error code: 1175 during UPDATE in MySQL Workbench


It looks like your MySql session has the safe-updates option set. This means that you can't update or delete records without specifying a key (ex. primary key) in the where clause.

Try:

SET SQL_SAFE_UPDATES = 0;

Or you can modify your query to follow the rule (use primary key in where clause).


Follow the following steps before executing the UPDATE command:In MySQL Workbench

  1. Go to Edit --> Preferences
  2. Click "SQL Editor" tab and uncheck "Safe Updates" check box
  3. Query --> Reconnect to Server // logout and then login
  4. Now execute your SQL query

p.s., No need to restart the MySQL daemon!


SET SQL_SAFE_UPDATES=0;UPDATE tablename SET columnname=1;SET SQL_SAFE_UPDATES=1;
