Question

I am trying to run the following query,

UPDATE candidate_assets SET show = 1 WHERE show = 0;

to change all the rows (show) that are set to 0 to be equal to 1, the show column is just basic INT column, what am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

SHOW is a keyword in MySQL. Try escaping references to your column by surrounding them with backtick ` marks:

UPDATE candidate_assets SET `show` = 1 WHERE `show` = 0;
