How to update timestamp - mysql

I'm now having trouble with using dateadd() function. Basically I want to add 1 day to cexpireday(timestamp) if it is at least 10 days after current day.
I have tried two ways but neither of them work
update card
set cexpireday = dateadd(day,1,cexpireday)
where cexpireday - current_timestamp() >= '0000-00-10 00:00:00'
and
update card
set cexpireday = date_add(cexpireday,INTERVAL 10 day )
where datediff(day,cexpireday,current_timestamp) >= 10
I got "dateadd does not exist" for the first and "incorrect parameter to navigate function datediff()" for the second.
Can anyone help me with this?

Maybe try this:
UPDATE card
SET cexpireday = DATE_ADD(cexpireday, INTERVAL 1 DAY)
WHERE cexpireday > DATE_ADD(NOW(), INTERVAL 10 DAY)

You need to use DATE_ADD instead of dateadd.
Also you need to have a look at documentation.
This is example how to use it DATE_ADD(date, INTERVAL 10 DAY).
Also DATEDIFF expects 2 params start_date and end_date and returns number of days between 2 dates.

MSQL, Query rows passed a certain date of an initial date?

How do i extract all rows greater then 7 days of a start date?, I'm trying to use this query in MySQL. Below is my statement.
SELECT * from v_polygons a
INNER JOIN tblProjectData z
on z.Project_ID = a.Project_ID
WHERE DATE_ADD(z.FlyDate, INTERVAL 7 DAY) > NOW() + INTERVAL rge DAY
I have a start date z.FlyDate, So i give it +7 days, then i check to see if that date is greater then NOW()
is this correct or have i messed it up?
You can just do:
WHERE DATE_ADD(DATE(z.FlyDate), INTERVAL 7 DAY) < DATE(NOW());
This will ignore the time part. You can remove DATE function call if you want to consider the time as well.

SQL DATE extraction from a column

I have a table 'schedule' and column 'travel_date'.
travel_date is having 'a predefined date' in that.
I want to alter that column with '5days' more.
like
UPDATE Schedule SET travel_date=''+5days ;
I used
UPDATE schedule SET travel_date = (travel_date+5);
It worked how ?
In MySQL you can do that with
UPDATE customer
SET register_date = DATE_ADD(register_date, INTERVAL 5 DAY)
Why would you want to add 5 days to every customers register date???
Are you sure this is what you want to do?
UPDATE customer SET [register_date] = DATE_ADD([register_date], INTERVAL 5 DAY)
If it is a datetime column, use the DATE_ADD() function:
UPDATE customer SET register_date = DATE_ADD(register_date, INTERVAL 5 DAY)
Using DATE_ADD()
You can use the DATE_ADD() function to handle adding a given interval (e.g. days, minutes, hours, etc.) to an existing date column:
UPDATE customer
SET register_date = DATE_ADD(register_date, INTERVAL 5 DAY)
Using Date Arithmetic
Alternatively, you can simply use date arithmetic as well, which is similar to your previous example:
UPDATE customer
SET register_date = register_date + INTERVAL 5 DAY

sql query to fetch the records of next 30 days

Here is my problem, I want to fetch next 30 days records from the table. I have a field in my table. For ex: In my table I have resource_date, In this column I have many records from 2013-02-05 to 2015-10-10. Say, If I logged into the website today(Today's Date is- 16/01/2015, It should fetch record for next 15 days and so on). How to do this? Thanks in advance
One way to do it
SELECT *
FROM table1
WHERE resource_date >= CURDATE() + INTERVAL 1 DAY -- skip today
AND resource_date < CURDATE() + INTERVAL 17 DAY -- 15 days starting tomorrow
Here is a SQLFiddle demo
In MySQL, you can use the NOW() function to get the current DATETIME, and the INTERVAL keyword to get intervals of time.
So, to get the records where resource_date is within the next 30 days, you would use:
SELECT *
FROM `my_table_name`
WHERE `resource_date` >= NOW()
AND `resource_date` < NOW() + INTERVAL 1 MONTH
;
In practice, you should rarely use SELECT *, and you should consider adding a LIMIT to this query to prevent your application from returning a result set that is "too large".
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/date-and-time-functions.html
...
WHERE
'resource_date'> NOW() AND
'resource_date'< DATE_ADD(NOW(), INTERVAL 31 DAY);
Careful I think now() does minutes and hours so you miss a portion of a day.
WHERE resource_date >= CURDATE() AND resource_date <= DATE_ADD(CURDATE(), interval 15 DAY)

Trouble with date ranges

I need to check for entries made in the last "x" days (example 30 days) and cannot get the query to work. This is what I am using:
SELECT CAL_OWNER,
CAL_TITLE,
FROM_UNIXTIME (CAL_CREATED, "%m-%d-%y") AS CREATED,
FROM_UNIXTIME (RANGE_START, "%Y-%m-%d") AS DATE2BESEEN,
CASE CAL_REFERRAL_TYPE
WHEN 1 THEN 'NoReferral'
WHEN 2 THEN 'CareyGuide'
WHEN 3 THEN 'Education'
WHEN 4 THEN 'Employment'
WHEN 5 THEN 'Housing'
WHEN 6 THEN 'Medical'
ELSE 'NA'
END
AS REFERRALS
FROM EGW_CAL
WHERE CAL_CREATED BETWEEN (NOW () - '30 day') AND NOW ()
ORDER BY REFERRALS ASC;
If I comment out the "WHERE range_start ... line the query runs fine, but pulls all data
However, if I run the complete query, it does not error, but there are no results (I have 4 entries in column cal_created in the last 3 weeks).
If some one can help I'd really appreciate it
Try using INTERVAL and either NOW() or CURDATE()..
WHERE FROM_UNIXTIME (CAL_CREATED,'%Y-%m-%d') BETWEEN CURDATE() - INTERVAL 30 DAY AND CURDATE()
curdate is just the date portion of the day
if you want to include the time use NOW()
WHERE FROM_UNIXTIME (CAL_CREATED,'%Y-%m-%d') BETWEEN NOW() - INTERVAL 30 DAY AND NOW()
you could also make a new date to use the between with
WHERE FROM_UNIXTIME (CAL_CREATED,'%Y-%m-%d') BETWEEN DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 30 DAY) AND NOW()
SOURCE: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/date-and-time-functions.html
NOTE: the dates need to be formatted correctly in order for it to work
FULL QUERY:
SELECT
CAL_OWNER,
CAL_TITLE,
FROM_UNIXTIME (CAL_CREATED, '%m-%d-%y') AS CREATED_AT,
FROM_UNIXTIME (RANGE_START, '%Y-%m-%d') AS DATE2BESEEN,
CASE CAL_REFERRAL_TYPE
WHEN 1 THEN 'NoReferral'
WHEN 2 THEN 'CareyGuide'
WHEN 3 THEN 'Education'
WHEN 4 THEN 'Employment'
WHEN 5 THEN 'Housing'
WHEN 6 THEN 'Medical'
ELSE 'NA'
END AS REFERRALS
FROM EGW_CAL
WHERE FROM_UNIXTIME(CAL_CREATED,'%Y-%m-%d') BETWEEN (NOW() - INTERVAL 30 DAY) AND NOW()
ORDER BY REFERRALS ASC;
CAL_CREATED is a UNIX timestamp,
NOW() will return a MySQL timestamp.
They don't mix automatically. So use
WHERE CAL_CREATED
BETWEEN UNIX_TIMESTAMP(NOW() - INTERVAL 30 DAY) AND UNIX_TIMESTAMP(NOW());
Note:
I wouldn't recommend to go the other way
WHERE FROM_UNIXTIME(CAL_CREATED) BETWEEN ...
because MySQL can't use an index in this case.
The correct where clause uses internval:
WHERE CAL_CREATED BETWEEN NOW() - interval 30 day AND NOW()
The use of single quotes is reminiscent of Postgres. In MySQL, it ends up treating the value of now() as an integer. And it subtracts the string value "30 days" from it.
When now() is treated as an integer, it also has hours, minutes, and seconds. So you are really subtracting something like 30 seconds. Here is the documentation on now().

Update date + one year in mysql

When I want setting numerical value +1 in mysql table, I use e.g.:
UPDATE table SET number=number+1 WHEN ...
How can I set date + one year?
Thanks
You could use DATE_ADD : (or ADDDATE with INTERVAL)
UPDATE table SET date = DATE_ADD(date, INTERVAL 1 YEAR)
This post helped me today, but I had to experiment to do what I needed. Here is what I found.
Should you want to add more complex time periods, for example 1 year and 15 days, you can use
UPDATE tablename SET datefieldname = curdate() + INTERVAL 15 DAY + INTERVAL 1 YEAR;
I found that using DATE_ADD doesn't allow for adding more than one interval. And there is no YEAR_DAYS interval keyword, though there are others that combine time periods. If you are adding times, use now() rather than curdate().
For multiple interval types use a nested construction as in:
UPDATE table SET date = DATE_ADD(DATE_ADD(date, INTERVAL 1 YEAR), INTERVAL 1 DAY)
For updating a given date in the column date to 1 year + 1 day
