TYPO3: SQL error: 'Incorrect integer value: '' for column 'sys_language_uid' at row 1'

Question

I have newly setup TYPO3, but when I try to add/save content, it gives me this error:

SQL error: \'Incorrect integer value: \'\' for column \'sys_lang

Answer 1

For me, after trying different approaches, the solution was:

mysql -u root -p -e "SET GLOBAL sql_mode = 'NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION';" 

Then, you can verify that the mode is set by running the following:

 mysql -u root -p -e "SELECT @@GLOBAL.sql_mode;"

And you should see:

+---------------+------------------------+
| Variable_name | Value                  |
+---------------+------------------------+
| sql_mode      | NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION |
+---------------+------------------------+
