Answer 1

You have two constraints called company.cid_FK. Rename one.

Why MySQL Workbench doesn't check for this is beyond me. :( – Stodgy

Answer 2

For errors like this, you can find more information with 'perror'. i.e.

shell $ perror 121

MySQL error code 121: Duplicate key on write or update
Win32 error code 121: The semaphore timeout period has expired.

Answer 3

I got the same error MySQL error code 121: Duplicate key on write or update.

although I deleted the table from my database to recreated again but I could not so I recreated the table yet with different constrain.

I found that the old constrain is still there.

Is this a solution or are you saying you have the same situation? – Fortyish
