BIGINT Out-of-range Error since MySQL 5.5

问题:

I'm working with nested sets for my CMS but since MySQL 5.5 I can't move a node.
The following error gets thrown:

Error while reordering docs:Error in MySQL-DB: Invalid SQL:

 SELECT baum2.id AS id,
 COUNT(*) AS level
 FROM elisabeth_tree AS baum1,
 elisabeth_tree AS baum2
 WHERE baum2.lft BETWEEN baum1.lft AND baum1.rgt
 GROUP BY baum2.lft
 ORDER BY ABS(baum2.id - 6);

error: BIGINT UNSIGNED value is out of range in '(lektoren.baum2.id - 6)'
error number: 1690

Has anyone solved this Problem? I already tried to cast some parts but it wasn't successful.

回答1:

BIGINT UNSIGNED is unsigned and cannot be negative.

Your expression ABS(lektoren.baum2.id - 6) will use a negative intermediate value if id is less than 6.

Presumably earlier versions implicitly converted to SIGNED. You need to do a cast.

Try

ORDER BY ABS(CAST(lectoren.baum2.id AS SIGNED) - 6)

回答2:

SET sql_mode = 'NO_UNSIGNED_SUBTRACTION';

Call this before the query is executed.

回答3:

ORDER BY ABS(CAST(lectoren.baum2.id AS BIGINT SIGNED) - 6)

That change would be mysql only.

instead, do

ORDER BY ABS(- 6 + baum2.id);
