What version of MySQL does that work in? I tried pasting that create
table directly into MySQL and get an error...
#1064 - 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 'CURRENT_TIMESTAMP on update
CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
) ENGINE=MyISA
Query used :
CREATE TABLE `profile_log` (
`profile_id` int( 10 ) default NULL ,
`user_id` int( 10 ) default NULL ,
`timestamp` timestamp NOT NULL default CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE
CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
) ENGINE = MYISAM DEFAULT CHARSET = utf8
I can't find a reference to this on MySQL's site...would you have a link
to the documentation? Thanks.
