The error means that you have data in other tables that references the data you are trying to delete.
You would need to either drop and recreate the constraints or delete the data that the Foreign Key references.

Comment

The "delete statement conflicted with the reference constraint" error message typically occurs when you are trying to delete a record from a database table that is referenced by foreign key constraints in other tables.

A foreign key constraint is a database rule that specifies that a column in a table must contain a value that is present in the primary key of another table. For example, if you have a "customers" table with a primary key column named "customer_id", and you have an "orders" table with a foreign key column named "customer_id", then the "orders" table is required to contain only customer IDs that are present in the "customers" table.

If you try to delete a customer from the "customers" table that has associated orders in the "orders" table, the database will prevent the deletion because it would violate the foreign key constraint. This will cause the "delete statement conflicted with the reference constraint" error to be thrown.

To fix this error, you will need to either delete the associated records in the other table(s) first, or update the foreign key values in the other table(s) to point to a different primary key value.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
