Re: ALTER vs MODIFY to set default on a column

 

I see that it can be a bug, as a workaround execute the first query, if you
got a error, try the second/third that should do the trick, while reporting
it as a bug to mariadb jira tracking / mysql error tracking
Reading docs i didn't found error too
v5.7
| ALTER [COLUMN] *col_name* { SET DEFAULT {*literal* | (*expr*)} | DROP
DEFAULT }
v8.0
| ALTER [COLUMN] *col_name* { SET DEFAULT {*literal* | (*expr*)} | SET {
VISIBLE | INVISIBLE} | DROP DEFAULT }
v10.5
| ALTER [COLUMN] col_name SET DEFAULT literal | (expression)
