Missing storage engine CREATE option

Production Risk

Low — DDL fails; no data affected.

What this means

The storage engine requires a specific option in the CREATE TABLE statement that was not provided.

Why it happens
  1. 1Using an engine that mandates certain options (e.g., CONNECT engine requiring table_type).
  2. 2Omitting required ENGINE-specific options.
How to reproduce
trigger — this will error
trigger — this will error
CREATE TABLE t (id INT) ENGINE=CONNECT;

expected output

ERROR 1714 (HY000): Missing storage engine option.

Fix

Provide the required engine option

Provide the required engine option
CREATE TABLE t (id INT) ENGINE=CONNECT table_type=CSV file_name='t.csv';

Why this works

Supplying all mandatory engine options satisfies the storage engine requirements.
