How to write stored procedures in Wampserver to run Automatically - mysql

Question

I didn't know anything about Stored procedures. unfortunately I have to run a stored procedure automatically.
I have a table called pass and I want to update status as cancelled at the end of the day automatically. I'm using phpmyadmin in wampserver.
I have already tried some codes but I don't know this code is correct and how to set execution automatically.
here is my code,
CREATE PROCEDURE MyTask
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
SET ANSI_NULLS ON;
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON;
GO
-- For executing the stored procedure at 1:00 A.M
declare #delayTime nvarchar(50)
set #delayTime = '01:00'
while 1 = 1
BEGIN
waitfor time #delayTime
BEGIN
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[updateDuration] AS
UPDATE pass SET status = 'Cancelled' WHERE duration_type='Daily' && duration = DATE_SUB(CURRENT_DATE(),INTERVAL 1 DAY);
--Name for the stored proceduce you want to call on regular bases
execute [gatepass].[dbo].[updateDuration];
END
END
END
It says that to put below code, but I don't know where to put these.
-- Sets stored procedure for automatic execution.
sp_procoption #ProcName = 'MyTask',
#OptionName = 'startup',
#OptionValue = 'on'

Method #1 - Batching
Create a script named runMyTask.sql or whatever you want.
That script should have your SQL to run the stored procedure:
-- Sets stored procedure for automatic execution.
CALL sp_procoption('MyTask','startup', 'on');
Then you need a batch script which you might name runMyTask.bat.
In the .bat file you add the line that runs the mysql.exe command line tool and redirects the contents of the runMyTask.sql file along the lines of something like
C:/wamp/bin/mysql/mysql..../bin/mysql -u root --password=your_password database_name < C:/path/to/runMyTask.sql
When you have tested that the batch script runs correctly from the windows cmd shell, set it up in the scheduler.
Method #2 MySQL - Event Scheduler
To use the event scheduler you'll need to first make sure you it's enabled on the server. By default it is not. From the aforementioned mysql command line, login as root.
SET GLOBAL event_scheduler = ON;
After you turn it on, run a SHOW PROCESSLIST; command and you should see a line similar to this one, showing the user event_scheduler owning a process.
| 10729276 | event_scheduler | localhost | NULL | Daemon | 4 | Waiting on empty queue | NULL | 0.000 |
At this point you can add "events". To add your stored procedure run as an event, once an hour:
USE your_db;
CREATE EVENT IF NOT EXISTS EventRunMyTask
ON SCHEDULE EVERY 1 HOUR
ENABLE
DO CALL sp_procoption('MyTask','startup', 'on');
If everything goes well you should be able to see information about the scheduled job using SHOW EVENTS;
