Column count doesn't match value count at row 1
So I read the other posts but this question is unique. So this SQL dump file has this as the last entry.
INSERT INTO `wp_posts` VALUES(2781, 3, '2013-01-04 17:24:19', '2013-01-05 00:24:19'.
I'm trying to insert this value to the table...
INSERT INTO `wp_posts` VALUES(5, 5, '2005-04-11 09:54:35', '2005-04-11 17:54:35'
it gives me the error, "Column count doesn't match value count at row 1." So I'm lost on the concept of how the column and row apply here.
Doesn't 2781,3 mean row 2781 and column 3? And doesn't 5,5 mean row 5 and column 5?
Answer
The error means that you are providing not as much data as the table wp_posts does contain columns. And now the DB engine does not know in which columns to put your data.
To overcome this you must provide the names of the columns you want to fill. Example:
insert into wp_posts (column_name1, column_name2)
values (1, 3)
Look up the table definition and see which columns you want to fill.
And insert means you are inserting a new record. You are not modifying an existing one. Use update for that.
