MySQL error code 1005 occurs when there is an error in the syntax of the CREATE TABLE statement . There are several reasons why this error might occur, so here are some tips for troubleshooting the issue:

Check the syntax of the CREATE TABLE statement : Make sure that the statement is correctly formatted and that all necessary keywords and parameters are included. For example, make sure that each field has a data type specified and that each constraint is properly defined.

Check the foreign key constraints : If you are including foreign key constraints in your CREATE TABLE statement, make sure that the referenced table and column names are spelled correctly and that the data types match.

Check the storage engine : Make sure that the storage engine you are using supports the features you are trying to use. For example, if you are trying to use foreign key constraints, make sure that you are using the InnoDB storage engine, as MyISAM does not support foreign keys.

Check for duplicate indexes : If you are getting error code 1005 with the message "Duplicate key on write or update," it means that you have a duplicate index. Make sure that you are not defining multiple indexes on the same set of columns.

Check the character set and collation : If you are using non-ASCII characters in your CREATE TABLE statement, make sure that the character set and collation are set correctly. For example, if you are using UTF-8 characters, make sure that the character set is set to utf8mb4 and the collation is set to utf8mb4_unicode_ci.

By following these troubleshooting tips, you should be able to resolve the MySQL error code 1005 and create your table successfully.
