This tag is for the MySQL-related error 1253. Error 1253 occurs when there is more than one character type or an invalid character type.
Each character set has one or more collations, but each collation is associated with one and only one character set. Therefore, the following statement causes an error message.
There are several sources of error information in MySQL:
Each SQL statement executed results in an error code, an SQLSTATE value, and an error message, as described in Section C.2, “Types of Error Values”. These errors are returned from the server side; see Section C.3, “Server Error Codes and Messages”.
Errors can occur on the client side, usually involving problems communicating with the server; see Section C.4, “Client Error Codes and Messages”.
SQL statement warning and error information is available through the SHOW WARNINGS and SHOW ERRORS statements. The warning_count and error_count system variables provide counts of the number of warnings and errors.
SHOW SLAVE STATUS statement output includes information about replication errors occurring on the slave side.
SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS statement output includes information about the most recent foreign key error if a CREATE TABLE statement for an InnoDB table fails.
Error 1253 occurs when there is more than one character type or an invalid character type.
