mysql sql error when using the row_number - mysql

Question

This query is throwing error, it seems correct but i am getting an error
WITH Rows AS (SELECT *,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY userid asc) as [Row]
FROM users
WHERE 1=1
)
SELECT * FROM Rows
WHERE Row >= 1 and Row <= 10
error i am getting while running the above statement is:
1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'Rows AS (SELECT *, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY userid asc)
FROM users
' at line 1

Answer 1

Your error is on Rows because MySQL does not recognize the CTE.
Then, MySQL also does not recognize [, so you want to use a more reasonable name. In MySQL 8+, that would be something like:
WITH Rows AS (
SELECT *,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY userid asc) as seqnum
FROM users
)
SELECT *
FROM Rows
WHERE seqnum <= 10;
You don't need to compare to 1. That is definitional.
Of course, this, in turn, is overkill. The CTE is unnecessary:
SELECT *,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY userid asc) as seqnum
FROM users
ORDER BY userid
LIMIT 10;
But this will still fail, because MySQL versions started recognizing CTEs and window functions in the same version.
So, you can just use variables:
SELECT u.*, (#rn := #rn + 1) as seqnum
FROM users u CROSS JOIN
(SELECT #rn := 0) params
ORDER BY userid
LIMIT 10;
