MySQL ERROR 1067 (42000): Invalid default value for 'created_at'
A column’s DEFAULT isn’t allowed in the current SQL mode — classically '0000-00-00 00:00:00' with NO_ZERO_DATE.
The instance of entity type 'X' cannot be tracked because another instance with the same key value for {'Id'} is already being tracked
Two different objects with the same primary key were attached to one DbContext.
EF Core: The LINQ expression 'x' could not be translated. Either rewrite the query in a form that can be translated, or switch to client evaluation explicitly
The query uses C# code EF Core can’t convert to SQL — custom methods, unsupported string/date functions, or complex projections.

An AUTO_INCREMENT column isn’t indexed (or there are two auto-increment columns).
