How can I drop this Foreign Key Column?

Question

I have looked at some of the other questions similar to this one but have not had any luck. I am trying to delete the whole foreign key column from the blogs table. It is linked to a primary key in my students table as well.

Create table students
(
studentid integer primary key NOT NULL,
ulid varchar(20) NOT NULL,
password varchar(20) NOT NULL,
email varchar(50) NOT NULL
)

Create table blogs
(
blogid integer primary key NOT NULL,
blogdate date NOT NULL,
title varchar(50) NOT NULL,
description varchar(8000) NOT NULL,
category varchar (50) NOT NULL,
studentid integer NOT NULL,
foreign key (studentid) references students (studentid)
)

I tried this and it didn't work

alter table blogs drop column studentid

alter table blogs drop constraint studentid

alter table blogs drop foreign key studentid

Answer 1

try this sql :

alter table blogs drop foreign key keyconstraint   // for you it will be `blogs_ibfk_1` i think

if you have any problem in droping the foreign constraind use:

show create table blogs

here you can see the created foreign key constraint name. then use it in sql
