MySQL CURRENT_TIMESTAMP on create and on update

I want to define table which will have 2 TIMESTAMP fields, someting like this:

CREATE TABLE `msgs` (
    `id` INT PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREMENT,
    `msg` VARCHAR(256),
    `ts_create` TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
    `ts_update` TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
)

How to do this avoiding error:

ERROR 1293 (HY000): Incorrect table definition; there can be only one TIMESTAMP column with CURRENT_TIMESTAMP in DEFAULT or ON UPDATE clause

Point is to keep desired behavior of ts_create and ts_update in table schema.

Solution 1:

Guess this is a old post but actually i guess mysql supports 2 TIMESTAMP in its recent editions mysql 5.6.25 thats what im using as of now.

Solution 2:

i think it is possible by using below technique

`ts_create` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT '0000-00-00 00:00:00',
`ts_update` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP

Solution 3:

You are using older MySql version. Update your myqsl to 5.6.5+ it will work.

Solution 4:

You cannot have two TIMESTAMP column with the same default value of CURRENT_TIMESTAMP on your table. Please refer to this link: http://www.mysqltutorial.org/mysql-timestamp.aspx
