# X_DB_SCHEMA_STALE

## Means

the statement names a table or column the database does not have

## Typical cause

SQLSTATE `42P01` / `42703` — an entity edited before the migration that adds its column ran, on either driver (PGlite under `x dev` included). The cause leads with `[SQLSTATE 42703] column "host_id" does not exist` and carries the statement after it, excerpted, so the column list can never push the message off the line

## Fix

`x db gen "<what changed>" && x db migrate` — only the migrate half when the migration already exists
