Magento Enterprise 2.4.8 (p1 and p2) db_schema.xml contain deployment breaking declarations.

[andy-igoo]

Preconditions and environment

• Magento Enterprise versions 2.4.8-p1 and 2.4.8-p2 (I haven't tested 2.4.8)
• I hit this whilst upgrading from 2.4.7-p5 using composer (require-commerce)

Steps to reproduce

• Install 2.4.7-p5 via composer to obtain a start point with the schemas
• Upgrade to 2.4.8-p1for the first example and additionally 2.4.8-p2 where things get worse

Expected result

I can run bin/magento setup:upgrade with no errors

Actual result

"Schema creation/updates" stage throws error: Table catalog_product_entity_media_gallery_value_to_entity do not have column with name entity_id

Additional information

Magento Commerce (Enterprise) 2.4.8-p1

In vendor/magento/module-catalog/etc/db_schema.xml:1679 there is a table declaration with a constraint section that appears unrelated to this table.
The table is catalog_product_entity_media_gallery_value_to_entity:

<table name="catalog_product_entity_media_gallery_value_to_entity" resource="default" engine="innodb"
       comment="Link Media value to Product entity table">
    <column xsi:type="int" name="value_id" unsigned="true" nullable="false" identity="false"
            comment="Value media Entry ID"/>
    <column xsi:type="int" name="entity_id" unsigned="true" nullable="false" identity="false"
            comment="Product Entity ID"/>
    <constraint xsi:type="foreign" referenceId="FK_A6C6C8FAA386736921D3A7C4B50B1185"
                table="catalog_product_entity_media_gallery_value_to_entity" column="value_id"
                referenceTable="catalog_product_entity_media_gallery" referenceColumn="value_id"
                onDelete="CASCADE"/>
    <constraint xsi:type="foreign" referenceId="CAT_PRD_ENTT_MDA_GLR_VAL_TO_ENTT_ENTT_ID_CAT_PRD_ENTT_ENTT_ID"
                table="catalog_product_entity_media_gallery_value_to_entity" column="entity_id"
                referenceTable="catalog_product_entity" referenceColumn="entity_id" onDelete="CASCADE"/>
    <constraint xsi:type="primary" referenceId="CAT_PRD_ENTT_MDA_GLR_VAL_TO_ENTT_VAL_ID_ENTT_ID">
        <column name="value_id"/>
        <column name="entity_id"/>
    </constraint>

    <!-- This constraint appears unrelated to this table. Commenting it out avoids the error. -->
    <constraint xsi:type="unique" referenceId="CAT_PRD_IDX_PRICE_TMP_ENTT_ID_CSTR_GROUP_ID_WS_ID">
        <column name="entity_id"/>
        <column name="customer_group_id"/>
        <column name="website_id"/>
    </constraint>
</table>

Issues with this constraint:

• Columns customer_group_id and website_id do not exist in this table.
• Adding this constraint causes bin/magento setup:upgrade to fail with:

  Table catalog_product_entity_media_gallery_value_to_entity do not have column with name entity_id
  

---

Additionally, in vendor/magento/module-catalog-staging/etc/db_schema.xml:256, the same table is modified to disable entity_id and replace it with row_id:

<table name="catalog_product_entity_media_gallery_value_to_entity" resource="default"
       comment="Link Media value to Product entity table">

    <!-- entity_id is disabled here -->
    <column xsi:type="int" name="entity_id" disabled="true"/>
    <column xsi:type="int" name="row_id" unsigned="true" nullable="false" identity="false"
            onCreate="migrateDataFrom(entity_id)" comment="Version Id"/>
    <constraint xsi:type="foreign" referenceId="CAT_PRD_ENTT_MDA_GLR_VAL_TO_ENTT_ENTT_ID_CAT_PRD_ENTT_ENTT_ID"
                disabled="1"/>
    <constraint xsi:type="foreign" referenceId="CAT_PRD_ENTT_MDA_GLR_VAL_TO_ENTT_ROW_ID_CAT_PRD_ENTT_ROW_ID"
                table="catalog_product_entity_media_gallery_value_to_entity" column="row_id"
                referenceTable="catalog_product_entity" referenceColumn="row_id" onDelete="CASCADE"/>
    <constraint xsi:type="primary" referenceId="CAT_PRD_ENTT_MDA_GLR_VAL_TO_ENTT_VAL_ID_ENTT_ID" disabled="1"/>
    <constraint xsi:type="primary" referenceId="CAT_PRD_ENTT_MDA_GLR_VAL_TO_ENTT_VAL_ID_ROW_ID">
        <column name="value_id"/>
        <column name="row_id"/>
    </constraint>
</table>

Conflict:

• module-catalog expects entity_id (and defines constraints referencing it).
• module-catalog-staging disables entity_id.
• The unique constraint in module-catalog still references entity_id along with two other non-existent columns.
• This results in a schema that cannot be created.

Magento Commerce (Enterprise) 2.4.8-p2

In 2.4.8-p2, the same “extra” unique constraint appears twice in vendor/magento/module-catalog/etc/db_schema.xml:1696:

<constraint xsi:type="unique" referenceId="CAT_PRD_IDX_PRICE_TMP_ENTT_ID_CSTR_GROUP_ID_WS_ID">
    <column name="entity_id"/>
    <column name="customer_group_id"/>
    <column name="website_id"/>
</constraint>
<constraint xsi:type="unique" referenceId="CAT_PRD_IDX_PRICE_TMP_ENTT_ID_CSTR_GROUP_ID_WS_ID">
    <column name="entity_id"/>
    <column name="customer_group_id"/>
    <column name="website_id"/>
</constraint>

Notes:

• The constraint is still invalid for this table.
• The fact that it appears twice may indicate over reliance on AI, a merge problem or copy-paste mishap in the XML source.

---

Summary

• Both modules together define a table schema that cannot be installed:

  1. module-catalog requires entity_id.
  2. module-catalog-staging removes entity_id.
  3. A unique constraint in module-catalog references entity_id, customer_group_id, and website_id — two of which do not exist in this table.
  4. In 2.4.8-p2, the invalid constraint appears twice.

• This prevents running bin/magento setup:upgrade successfully and blocks upgrades.

• We cannot proceed with upgrading to these versions until this conflict is resolved.
