MySQL ERROR 1005 (HY000): Can't create table 'schema_name.table_name' (errno: 15

　　今天在按照书上的例子学习Yii的时候发现在创建一个有外键的MySQL表的时候总是报以下错误
　　
ERROR 1005 (HY000): Can't create table '<schema>.<table>' (errno: 150)　　但是仅仅从这个错误消息根本得不到任何对排查错误有意义的信息，找了一些文章大多数是说外键表和原表里声明的字段类型不一致，但是都没有给出怎么查出是这个错误的，后来发现原来可以通过运行"SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS;"命令，然后在命令结果中的“LATEST FOREIGN KEY ERROR”部分得到具体的错误消息。如下：
