MySQL 1512

This error occurs when attempting to use a RANGE or LIST partition type on a column that does not have a constant value. It is a MySQL 1512 error.

How It Affects Your App

The error 1512 ER_ONLY_ON_RANGE_LIST_PARTITION indicates that the query attempted to use a function that is only available for range list partitioning. This means that the application is attempting to use a function that is not supported by the partitioning type used.
