ALTER TABLE tableName MODIFY COLUMN id INT; /* First you should drop auto increment */
ALTER TABLE tableName DROP PRIMARY KEY; /* Dop primary key */
ALTER TABLE tableName ADD PRIMARY KEY (new_id); /* Set primary key to the new column */

CREATE TABLE tableName (
    ID INT,

        ON DELETE CASCADE
