MariaDB Error 1353: View Column Count Mismatch
Description
This error occurs when creating or altering a database view in MariaDB. It indicates that the number of columns explicitly specified in the view's field list does not match the number of columns returned by the underlying SELECT statement. This mismatch prevents the database from correctly defining the view's structure.
Error Message
View's SELECT and view's field list have different column counts
Known Causes
3 known causesMismatched Explicit Field List
The number of columns explicitly defined in the CREATE VIEW statement's field list differs from the total columns returned by the underlying SELECT query.
Altering View with Inconsistent Columns
An ALTER VIEW statement changes the SELECT query, resulting in a different column count than the view's existing explicit field list.
Syntax or Typographical Error
An error in writing the explicit column list (e.g., missing a comma, extra column name) leads to an incorrect column count.
