Foreign key not working in MySQL: Why can I INSERT a value that's not in the foreign column?

Question

I\'ve created a table in MySQL:

CREATE TABLE actions ( A_id int NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
type ENUM(\'rate\',\'report\',\'submit\',\'edit\',\'delete\') NOT NU         


        

Answer 1

Well, my guess is somehow the "Skip creation of FORIEN KEYS" option is checked, it can happen in the "options" section of the "Forward Engineering" process.
