How can I solve incompatible with sql_mode=only_full_group_by in laravel eloquent?

My laravel eloquent is like this :

$products = Product::where('status', 1)
            ->where('stock', '>', 0)
            ->where('category_id', '=', $category_id)
            ->groupBy('store_id')
            ->orderBy('updated_at', 'desc')
            ->take(4)
            ->get();

When executed, there exist error like this :

SQLSTATE[42000]: Syntax error or access violation: 1055 Expression #1 of SELECT list is not in GROUP BY clause and contains nonaggregated column 'myshop.products.id' which is not functionally dependent on columns in GROUP BY clause; this is incompatible with sql_mode=only_full_group_by (SQL: select * from products where status = 1 and stock > 0 and category_id = 5 group by store_id order by updated_at desc limit 4)

How can I solve it?


I had a similar Problem and solved it by disabling mysql strict mode in the database connection setting.

'connections' => [
    'mysql' => [
        // Behave like MySQL 5.6
        'strict' => false,

        // Behave like MySQL 5.7
        'strict' => true,
    ]
]

You can find even more configuration settings in this blog post by Matt Stauffer


In folder config => database.php make sure mysql strict is false, like this

'mysql' => [
    'driver' => 'mysql',
    'host' => env('DB_HOST', '127.0.0.1'),
    'port' => env('DB_PORT', '3306'),
    'database' => env('DB_DATABASE', 'forge'),
    'username' => env('DB_USERNAME', 'forge'),
    'password' => env('DB_PASSWORD', ''),
    'unix_socket' => env('DB_SOCKET', ''),
    'charset' => 'utf8',
    'collation' => 'utf8_general_ci',
    'prefix' => '',
    'strict' => false,
    'engine' => null,
],

if strict is true, make it false then clear config cash by run this command in cmd

php artisan config:clear


I solved this problem by adding the "modes" option and setting only the modes I want to be enabled in config => database.php

'mysql' => [
    ...
    'modes' => [
        'STRICT_ALL_TABLES',
        'ERROR_FOR_DIVISION_BY_ZERO',
        'NO_ZERO_DATE',
        'NO_ZERO_IN_DATE',
        'NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER',
    ],
],
