I am using MySQL 5.6.44 within phpMyAdmin on Go Daddy shared hosting and experimenting with some duplicate table data.

I am trying to figure out, when I export my table from phpMyAdmin the exported sql file structure when opened does not match the schema seen in the admin panel. By that I mean the row sequence in the sql file are jumbled up.

I don't have any foreign key constraints set up or any other operations on the table.

Any steering and knowledge as to why this might be the case would be appreciated.

  • If you want an order on your data, you need to use an order by clause. An SQL database makes no guarantees about the order the data is stored or returned. – Colin 't Hart Jan 17 '20 at 12:02
  • appreciate the notes but what resolved the issue as mentioned was changing the engine as I mentioned from MyISAM to InnoDB. – stack rookie Jan 17 '20 at 18:15
  • Those rows are sorted as strings, not numbers. What process generated them? – Rick James Jan 20 '20 at 05:14

The issue disappeared when I changed the engine from MyISAM to InnoDB. I understand that InnoDB has row locking.
