You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ''%Y''%m''%d' ( ip_src CHAR(15) NOT NULL, ip_dst CHAR(15) NOT ' at line 1

Why does this error come about?

Answer 1

You can't have a table name with the % character, check this reference

Permitted characters in unquoted identifiers:

ASCII: [0-9,a-z,A-Z$_] (basic Latin letters, digits 0-9, dollar, underscore)
