Description: When doing a RENAME of two tables with a foreign constraint across them to a different DB on OSX, the foreign constraint works out just fine as long as you don't restart the server. In particular the query: SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.KEY_COLUMN_USAGE where REFERENCED_TABLE_SCHEMA <> CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA; does not return any result before restarting the server. As soon as you restart the server the same query returns a result. I've reproduced this on 5.6 and 5.7 on OSX. It does not seem to apply to other platforms (cannot reproduce it on MySQL over Docker) How to repeat: Run: ------ CREATE SCHEMA `MY_DB_1` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 ; CREATE SCHEMA `MY_DB_2` DEFAULT CHARACTER SET utf8 ; CREATE TABLE `MY_DB_1`.`MY_TABLE_1` ( `id` INT NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`id`)); CREATE TABLE `MY_DB_1`.`MY_TABLE_2` ( `foreignKeyColumn` INT NULL, INDEX `foreign_KEY_1_idx` (`foreignKeyColumn` ASC), CONSTRAINT `foreign_KEY_1` FOREIGN KEY (`foreignKeyColumn`) REFERENCES `MY_DB_1`.`MY_TABLE_1` (`id`)); RENAME TABLE `MY_DB_1`.`MY_TABLE_1` TO `MY_DB_2`.`MY_TABLE_1`; RENAME TABLE `MY_DB_1`.`MY_TABLE_2` TO `MY_DB_2`.`MY_TABLE_2`; ------ Check the results of: ------ SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.KEY_COLUMN_USAGE where REFERENCED_TABLE_SCHEMA <> CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA; ------ Restart the server Now check again the results of: ------ SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.KEY_COLUMN_USAGE where REFERENCED_TABLE_SCHEMA <> CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA; Suggested fix: INFORMATION_SCHEMA should return the same info before and after a restart.
