MariaDB Error 1500: Invalid Subpartition Mix
Description
This error occurs when attempting to create a table with subpartitioning where the combination of primary partitioning type (RANGE or LIST) and subpartitioning type (HASH or KEY) violates MariaDB's rules. MariaDB strictly enforces that if the primary partition is RANGE or LIST, subpartitions must be HASH or KEY.
Error Message
It is only possible to mix RANGE/LIST partitioning with HASH/KEY partitioning for subpartitioning
Known Causes
3 known causesMismatched Partitioning Schemes
You've attempted to use an incompatible partitioning type for subpartitions (e.g., RANGE or LIST) when the primary partition is also RANGE or LIST.
Improper SQL Syntax for Subpartitions
The `CREATE TABLE` statement's syntax for defining partitions and subpartitions violates the allowed combinations for subpartitioning.
Misunderstanding Partitioning Logic
The table design implicitly assumes a partitioning combination that is not supported by MariaDB's subpartitioning rules.
