MariaDB Error 1575: Base64 Decoding Failed
Description
This error indicates that MariaDB failed to decode a base64 encoded string. This typically occurs when a function expecting a valid base64 string receives input that is malformed, corrupted, or not actually base64 encoded, preventing successful conversion back to its original binary or text form.
Error Message
Decoding of base64 string failed
Known Causes
3 known causesInvalid Base64 Format
The input string contains characters outside the standard base64 alphabet (A-Z, a-z, 0-9, +, /, =) or has incorrect padding, rendering it structurally invalid for decoding.
Corrupted or Truncated Data
The base64 string was incomplete, altered, or damaged during its generation, storage, or transmission, resulting in a non-decodable sequence.
Character Encoding Mismatch
The string might have undergone incorrect character set conversions before or during the decoding process, corrupting the base64 sequence itself.
