MySQL Error 3055: Geometry Byte Order Mismatch
Description
This error indicates that spatial (GIS) data being processed or inserted into MySQL has a byte order (endianness) that does not match what the server expects. MySQL typically expects little-endian byte order for geometry data, and this error occurs when big-endian data is provided.
Error Message
Geometry byte string must be little endian.
Known Causes
3 known causesData Source Endianness Mismatch
The GIS data was generated on a system or by an application that uses big-endian byte ordering, while the MySQL server expects little-endian data.
Incorrect Data Serialization
An application or script is serializing geometry data into a byte string using the wrong byte order (e.g., big-endian) before sending it to the MySQL server.
Malformed Geometry Input
The raw geometry byte string is corrupted or incorrectly constructed, leading to an invalid endianness flag or structure that the server cannot interpret.
