MySQL 3158

This error occurs when a key in a JSON document is null. MySQL 3158 indicates that the key is invalid and must be non-null.

How It Affects Your App

MySQL 3158 ER_JSON_DOCUMENT_NULL_KEY indicates that a JSON document contains a null key, which is not allowed. This error can prevent the application from properly processing the JSON document, as the application may not be able to handle the null key. This can lead to unexpected results or errors in the application, as the application may not be able to properly process the JSON document. In some cases, the application may even crash due to the unexpected null key.
