How to solve SchemaVersionTrackingException in dbdeploy due to no default value in delta_set?

Question

I am trying to do automatic DB migration. I am using dbdeploy for the same. I followed the steps in this link http://blog.codeborne.com/2012/09/using-dbdeploy-in-gradle.html

I created the change log table as:

CREATE TABLE changelog (
  change_number INTEGER NOT NULL,
  delta_set VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL,
  start_dt TIMESTAMP NOT NULL,
  complete_dt TIMESTAMP NULL,
  applied_by VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
  description VARCHAR(500) NOT NULL
);

ALTER TABLE changelog ADD CONSTRAINT Pkchangelog PRIMARY KEY (change_number, delta_set);

The updateDatabase task in build.gradle is:

task updateDatabase << {
    ant.dbdeploy(driver: dbDriver,
            url: dbUrl,
            userid: dbUsername,
            password: dbPassword,
            dir: './src/main/resources/deploy/sql',
            dbms: 'mysql'

    )
}

When I do gradle updateDatabase, I get com.dbdeploy.exceptions.SchemaVersionTrackingException: Could not update change log because: Field 'delta_set' doesn't have a default value.

I tried assigning 'main' as default value in the change table log file as:

delta_set VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL DEFAULT 'Main'

But, I still got the same exception.

I also removed the delta_set attribute, I got the same exception. This really confused me.

I am completely new to datamigration. So, any help regarding this error and how I should go about it will be deeply appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

The DBDeploy documentation isn't very explicit about this, but the changelog table format changed between versions 2.X and 3.X (see the upgrade instructions). I suspect that you are using DBDeploy 3.X.

You need to:

Remove the old changelog table:
```
DROP TABLE changelog;
```

Recreate it using the new format:

CREATE TABLE changelog (
  change_number INTEGER NOT NULL,
  complete_dt TIMESTAMP NOT NULL,
  applied_by VARCHAR(100) NOT NULL,
  description VARCHAR(500) NOT NULL
);

ALTER TABLE changelog ADD CONSTRAINT Pkchangelog PRIMARY KEY (change_number);

After this, everything should work.
