Setting lowercase_table_names to 2 on Windows causing Foreign Key problems
This problem was exposed by the fix for Bug#55222. There was a codepath in dict0load.c,
dict_load_foreigns() that made sure the table name matched case sensitive in order to
load a referenced table into the dictionary as needed. If an engine is rebooted which
accesses a table with foreign keys, and lower_case_table_names=2, then the table with
foreign keys will get an error when it is changed (insert/updated/delete).
Once the referenced tables are loaded into the dictionary cache by a select statement
on those tables, the same change would succeed because the affected code path would
not get followed.
