MariaDB Error 1481: MAXVALUE Partition Placement
Description
MariaDB Error 1481 indicates an issue with the placement of the `MAXVALUE` keyword in a table's partition definition. This error occurs when `MAXVALUE` is used as an upper bound for any partition other than the very last one, which is its designated and only valid position.
Error Message
MAXVALUE can only be used in last partition definition
Known Causes
3 known causesMAXVALUE in Non-Final Partition
The `MAXVALUE` keyword was mistakenly used as the upper limit for a partition that is not the final partition in the table's definition.
Partitions Defined After MAXVALUE
Attempting to define additional partitions after a preceding partition has already used `MAXVALUE` as its upper boundary, which implies it should be the last partition.
Incorrect Partitioning Logic
The overall `CREATE TABLE` or `ALTER TABLE` statement contains a logical error in its partitioning scheme, leading to `MAXVALUE` being placed incorrectly.
