Force InnoDB to recheck foreign keys on a table/ta

Question

I have a set of InnoDB tables that I periodically need to maintain by removing some rows and inserting others. Several of the tables have foreign key constraints referencing other tables, so this means that the table loading order is important. To insert the new rows without worrying about the order of the tables, I use:

SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=0;

before, and then:

SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=1;

after.

When the loading is complete, I'd like to check that the data in the updated tables still hold referential integrity--that the new rows don't break foreign key constraints--but it seems that there's no way to do this.

As a test, I entered data that I was sure violated foreign key constraints, and upon re-enabling the foreign key checks, mysql produced no warnings or errors.

If I tried to find a way to specify the table loading order, and left the foreign key checks on during the loading process, this would not allow me to load data in a table that has a self-referencing foreign key constraint, so this would not be an acceptable solution.

Is there any way to force InnoDB to verify a table's or a database's foreign key constraints?

Answer 1

I modified the script to handle multiple columns foreign keys.

The same check but for invalid UNIQUE keys analysis:

--> Small bug/feature: It will report duplicate nulls also. (While mysql allows duplicate nulls).

You can use this stored procedure to check the all database for invalid foreign keys. The result will be loaded into INVALID_FOREIGN_KEYS table. Parameters of ANALYZE_INVALID_FOREIGN_KEYS:

1. Database name pattern (LIKE style)
2. Table name pattern (LIKE style)

3. Whether the result will be temporary. It can be: 'Y', 'N', NULL.

   • In case of 'Y' the ANALYZE_INVALID_FOREIGN_KEYS result table will be temporary table. The temporary table won't be visible for other sessions. You can execute multiple ANALYZE_INVALID_FOREIGN_KEYS(...) stored procedure parallelly with temporary result table.
   • But if you are interested in the partial result from an other session, then you must use 'N', then execute SELECT * FROM INVALID_FOREIGN_KEYS; from an other session.

   • You must use NULL to skip result table creation in transaction, because MySQL executes implicit commit in transaction for CREATE TABLE ... and DROP TABLE ..., so the creation of result table would cause problem in transaction. In this case you must create the result table yourself out of BEGIN; COMMIT/ROLLBACK; block:

The INVALID_FOREIGN_KEYS rows will contain only the name of invalid database, table, column. But you can see the invalid referring rows with the execution of value of INVALID_KEY_SQL column of INVALID_FOREIGN_KEYS if there is any.

This stored procedure will be very fast if there are indexes on the referring columns (aka. foreign index) and on the referred columns (usually primary key).

Answer 4

There is no tool, that can do that. But you can write a script, that will walk through all your tables, drop and recreate foreign key constrains. On recreation, there will be an error if something is wrong.

Answer 5

Thanks for this great answer - this is a very handy tool. Here is a slightly modified version of the procedure that includes SQL in the output table to delete keys with invalid keys - handy for the cases where you have confirmed that these rows are simply orphans from missing/disabled delete cascade rules (and not orphans from primary key changes or other more complex cases).
