How It Affects Your App
MySQL 1813 ER_TABLESPACE_EXISTS indicates that a tablespace with the same name already exists. This error can prevent the application from creating a new tablespace, which can lead to data loss or corruption. It can also prevent the application from accessing existing tablespaces, which can lead to data inconsistency or incorrect results. In either case, the application may not be able to function properly.
