MySQL Error 1747: Partition Clause on Non-Partitioned Table
Description
MySQL Error 1747 occurs when an SQL statement attempts to use a `PARTITION ()` clause on a table that has not been defined with any partitioning scheme. This typically happens during DDL operations like adding, dropping, or reorganizing partitions on a regular, non-partitioned table.
Error Message
PARTITION () clause on non partitioned table
Known Causes
3 known causesAttempting Partition Management on Regular Tables
SQL DDL statements designed for managing partitions (e.g., `ADD PARTITION`, `DROP PARTITION`, `REORGANIZE PARTITION`) were applied to a table that does not have partitioning enabled.
Incorrect Schema Understanding
The database schema was misunderstood, leading to the assumption that a particular table was partitioned when it was not.
Copy-Pasting Partitioned Table DDL
Partition-specific DDL from another context (like a partitioned table) was incorrectly reused on a non-partitioned table without modification.
