MySQL 1288

This error occurs when an attempt is made to update a table that is not updatable. It is a MySQL 1288 error and the literal message is "Table '%s' is not updatable".

How It Affects Your App

The error 1288 ER_NON_UPDATABLE_TABLE indicates that the table is not updatable, meaning that the application cannot modify the data stored in the table. This can have a significant impact on the application, as it may not be able to perform certain operations that require data to be updated. Furthermore, the application may not be able to access the data stored in the table, as it cannot be modified. This can lead to data loss or incorrect data being stored in the table, which can have a negative impact on the application's performance.
