Phiên bản này của mysql là gì?
Bạn đang chạy ở chế độ nào?
SELECT @@GLOBAL.SQL_MODE, @@SESSION.SQL_MODE;
(Điều này nên được chạy trong ngữ cảnh của ứng dụng của bạn, chỉ trong trường hợp nó đang thay đổi nó).
MySQL được ghi lại như vậy: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/data-type-defaults.html
As of MySQL 5.0.2, if a column definition includes no explicit DEFAULT value, MySQL determines the default value as follows:
If the column can take NULL as a value, the column is defined with an explicit DEFAULT NULL clause. This is the same as before 5.0.2.
If the column cannot take NULL as the value, MySQL defines the column with no explicit DEFAULT clause. For data entry, if an INSERT or REPLACE statement includes no value for
the column, MySQL handles the column according to the SQL mode in effect at the time:
If strict SQL mode is not enabled, MySQL sets the column to the implicit default value for the column data type.

Thực tế là dữ liệu cũ không có giá trị. Bảng Alter nên 'cắt ngắn' các null thành các chuỗi rỗng
