When trying to insert a row into my databse table I am getting this error:-

SQL

The INSERT statement conflicted with the FOREIGN KEY constraint "FK_table_table". The conflict occurred in database "database", table "dbo.table", column 'columname'.
The statement has been terminated.

Please could someone advise me on what the issue is likely to be. Thanks in advance for your time.

Solution 1

Well, it seems pretty obvious that you are trying to Insert a row into a table that has a foreign key constraint and you are not complying with that constraint. Most likely you are inserting a row with an illegal value for another tables primary key that is linked to the original table.

Solution 2

Check your table structure and constraints.
Then check are you passing valid values to insert statement.
Try to execute query on database.
