MariaDB Error 1560: Binary Log Format Change Prevented
Description
This error occurs when an attempt is made to change the binary logging format (via `SET binlog_format`) from within a stored function or trigger. MariaDB prohibits this operation to ensure data consistency and replication integrity, as changing the logging format mid-routine can lead to unpredictable behavior and data discrepancies across replicas.
Error Message
Cannot change the binary logging format inside a stored function or trigger
Known Causes
3 known causesDirect `SET binlog_format` in Routine
An explicit SQL statement attempting to change the `binlog_format` system variable was included within the body of a stored function or trigger.
Indirect Format Modification
A stored function or trigger executed another routine or command that, in turn, attempted to modify the binary logging format, leading to the same restriction.
Misunderstanding of `binlog_format` Scope
The developer intended to change the `binlog_format` globally or for the session, but inadvertently placed the command within a routine's definition.
