Question

INSERT INTO `configuration` VALUES ('', 'News Box Character Count', 'NEWS_BOX_CHAR_COUNT', '200', 'Set the number of characters (bytes) that you want to display in the news preview box.', 19, 99, NULL, '2004-09-07 12:00:00', NULL, NULL);

I run this command in phpMyAdmin, it shows

#1366 - Incorrect integer value: '' for column 'configuration_id' at row 1

configuration_id is an auto increment field beginnning of 1

Answer 1

Instead of this INSERT INTO configuration VALUES ('', 'News Box Character Count',

Pass the value as NULL for auto_increment or integer column or you can simply not to include that column in sql query.

INSERT INTO `configuration` VALUES (NULL, 'News Box Character Count', ...

This is because, mysql is running in the strict mode.

You can either use NULL for all the integer columns when there is nothing to enter them or turn off the MySql Strict mode.
