I am running Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.17, for Win32 (ia32) on WinXP.

The code below gives me errno: 150 error (but executes on Linux):

create table METADATA_ELEM (
Element_ID int auto_increment not null,
TagName varchar(255) not null,
Lang varchar(255),
Content text,
Extension_ID int default 0,

foreign key (Item_ID) references ARCHIVED_ITEM (Item_ID)
on delete set null
on update cascade,
foreign key (Tag_ID) references ELEMENT_DEFN (Tag_ID)

on update cascade);

However, this code runs without error:

Anybody know if the trouble getting the MySql Administrator to allow setup
of foreign key was resolved? I saw a post from last month about error 150,
but setting my default value to null as suggested, did not fix it.

A 150 error with the following message was returned when I tried to set up a
foreign key using the MySQL administrator (windows 2000 environment)...

Can't create table '.\databasename\#sql-72c_2f.frm' (errno: 150)

the sql generated (as reported by the administrator) was ....

ADD CONSTRAINT 'FK_myname' FOREIGN KEY 'FK_myname' ('title') REFERENCES
'contactaddressestitle' ('id') ;
