How It Affects Your App
MySQL 1859 ER_DUP_UNKNOWN_IN_INDEX indicates that a duplicate value has been found in an index. This can cause the application to fail, as it will not be able to process the data correctly. It can also lead to data corruption, as the application may not be able to distinguish between the duplicate values. This can lead to incorrect results being returned, or data being overwritten. In some cases, the application may even crash. It is important to identify and fix this error as soon as possible to ensure the application is running correctly.
