    projection,                               // The columns to return
    selection,                                // The columns for the WHERE clause

CREATE TABLE `ffxi_characterJob` (
`serverID` int(11) NOT NULL,
`userid` int(10)unsigned NOT NULL,
`characterName` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
`jobAbbr` char(4) NOT NULL,
`jobLevel` int(11) default '0',
PRIMARY KEY (`serverID`,`userid`,`characterName`,`jobAbbr`),
INDEX (`jobAbbr`),
CONSTRAINT FOREIGN KEY (`serverID`,`userid`,`characterName`) REFERENCES `ffxi_characters` (`serverID`,`userid`,`characterName`) 
ON DELETE CASCADE ON UPDATE CASCADE,
CONSTRAINT FOREIGN KEY (`jobAbbr`) REFERENCES `ffxi_jobType` (`jobAbbr`) ON DELETE CASCADE ON UPDATE CASCADE
) TYPE=InnoDB;

Answer 3

Try with create table(innoDB enginer) without foreign key and use the update table with constraint syntax, for example:

ALTER TABLE `vineyard`
        ADD CONSTRAINT `relation_farmer_has_many_vineyards`
            FOREIGN KEY (`farmer_id`)
            REFERENCES `worker` (`worker_id`)
            ON DELETE SET NULL
            ON UPDATE CASCADE;

Reference:

Trick: is not recommended to use capital letters(or camel case) in the names of the tables that the behavior differs from the operating system being used:

Answer 4

Your foreign key rule is ON DELETE SET NULL but your column definition is NOT NULL.

Either change your column definition and remove the NOT NULL part or overthink your foreign key rule. That works:

CREATE TABLE Vineyard (
    VineyardID smallint auto_increment,
    VineyardName VARCHAR(45) NOT NULL,
    FarmerID    smallint,
    GrapeID smallint,
    ComeFrom    varchar(45) NOT NULL,
    HarvestedAmount int,
    RipenessPercent int,
    PRIMARY KEY (VineyardID),
    FOREIGN KEY (FarmerID) REFERENCES Worker(WorkerID)
        ON DELETE SET NULL
        ON UPDATE CASCADE,
    FOREIGN KEY (GrapeID) REFERENCES Grape(GrapeID)
        ON DELETE SET NULL
        ON UPDATE CASCADE
)Engine=InnoDB;
