I'm trying to remove a row after inserted in a temp table and I get this error:
INSERT INTO `temp_program_counter` (`id`, `program_id`) values (NULL, '275')
Can't update table 'temp_program_counter' in stored function/trigger because it is already used by statement which invoked this stored function/trigger.
And here is my trigger:
DELIMITER $$
DROP TRIGGER IF EXISTS `testtemp`$$
CREATE
TRIGGER `testtemp` AFTER INSERT ON `temp_program_counter`
FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
UPDATE `program` SET `view_count`=`view_count`+1;
DELETE FROM `temp_program_counter` WHERE id=new.id;
END;
$$
DELIMITER ;
this table is a temp table that get's data with delay and after receiving must update the main table and be deleted from temp.
thanks for helping in advance.
You probably have already resolved this in some way but I'll post the answer anyway:
You cannot refer to the same table that triggered the trigger in a trigger (or a combination of trigger and stored procedure). This could mean an infinite loop, so sql prevents it by giving that error, resulting in always the same error.
Try BEFORE INSERT
Because, you are trying to delete a record which has just been inserted but may be not yet committed in this session. Hence you are getting the error.
If you use BEFORE INSERT, then all other record in the table with id=new.id would be deleted and the new record will be inserted successfully.
DELIMITER $$
DROP TRIGGER IF EXISTS `testtemp`$$
CREATE
TRIGGER `testtemp` BEFORE INSERT ON `temp_program_counter`
FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
UPDATE `program` SET `view_count`=`view_count`+1;
DELETE FROM `temp_program_counter` WHERE id=new.id;
END;
$$

I have this code for the trigger:
CREATE TRIGGER `insert_after` AFTER INSERT ON `hyk50_0001`
FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
INSERT INTO hyk50_0001_copy(Fecha)
SELECT Fecha FROM hyk50_0001
END;
but doesn't work, it says a syntax error but I didn't see it
I'm using Navicat. And hyk50_0001_copy it's a identical copy of hyk50_0001.
The target is take the new row of hyk50_0001 and INSERT in hyk50_0001_copy
I want put all the database, but if it doesn't work with only a value I can't progress.
I don't see a syntax error, but I assume you intend:
DELIMITER $$
CREATE TRIGGER `insert_after` AFTER INSERT ON `hyk50_0001`
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
INSERT INTO hyk50_0001_copy(Fecha)
VALUES (new.Fecha)
END;$$
DELIMITER ;
That is, you probably want to insert only the row that was just created.
Is it possible to fire a mysql trigger for both the insert and update events of a table?
I know I can do the following
CREATE TRIGGER my_trigger
AFTER INSERT ON `table`
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
.....
END //
CREATE TRIGGER my_trigger
AFTER UPDATE ON `table`
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
.....
END //
But how can I do
CREATE TRIGGER my_trigger
AFTER INSERT ON `table` AND
AFTER UPDATE ON `table`
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
.....
Is it possible, or do I have to use 2 triggers? The code is the same for both and I don't want to repeat it.
You have to create two triggers, but you can move the common code into a procedure and have them both call the procedure.
In response to #Zxaos request, since we can not have AND/OR operators for MySQL triggers, starting with your code, below is a complete example to achieve the same.
1. Define the INSERT trigger:
DELIMITER //
DROP TRIGGER IF EXISTS my_insert_trigger//
CREATE DEFINER=root#localhost TRIGGER my_insert_trigger
AFTER INSERT ON `table`
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
-- Call the common procedure ran if there is an INSERT or UPDATE on `table`
-- NEW.id is an example parameter passed to the procedure but is not required
-- if you do not need to pass anything to your procedure.
CALL procedure_to_run_processes_due_to_changes_on_table(NEW.id);
END//
DELIMITER ;
2. Define the UPDATE trigger
DELIMITER //
DROP TRIGGER IF EXISTS my_update_trigger//
CREATE DEFINER=root#localhost TRIGGER my_update_trigger
AFTER UPDATE ON `table`
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
-- Call the common procedure ran if there is an INSERT or UPDATE on `table`
CALL procedure_to_run_processes_due_to_changes_on_table(NEW.id);
END//
DELIMITER ;
3. Define the common PROCEDURE used by both these triggers:
DELIMITER //
DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS procedure_to_run_processes_due_to_changes_on_table//
CREATE DEFINER=root#localhost PROCEDURE procedure_to_run_processes_due_to_changes_on_table(IN table_row_id VARCHAR(255))
READS SQL DATA
BEGIN
-- Write your MySQL code to perform when a `table` row is inserted or updated here
END//
DELIMITER ;
You note that I take care to restore the delimiter when I am done with my business defining the triggers and procedure.
unfortunately we can't use in MySQL after INSERT or UPDATE description, like in Oracle

My trigger fails when i try to insert a new row in my table because Mysql doesn't support updating rows in the same table the trigger is assigned to. Does anyone have suggestions on a good workaround/alternative?
My trigger:
-- Trigger DDL Statements
DELIMITER $$
CREATE TRIGGER check_sequence
BEFORE INSERT ON data FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
IF EXISTS(SELECT TRUE FROM data WHERE sequence = NEW.sequence) THEN
UPDATE data SET sequence=sequence+1 WHERE sequence >= NEW.sequence;
END IF;
END $$
DELIMITER ;
Error Sql that is displayed when i try to insert new row:
ERROR 1442 (HY000): Can't update table 'data' in stored function/trigger because it is already used by statement which invoked this stored function/trigger.
Thanks for answer,
In MySQL, You can't update (or insert in) table A in a trigger for table A.
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/stored-program-restrictions.html
You can try a sproc and use a transaction, or consider PostgreSQL, which can do this.
I have two tables called account and transaction. I need to insert data to transaction automatically when account inserts data. I created this trigger in MySQL. It gives error 1064 (Syntax error). What is the problem?
CREATE TRIGGER upTransaction AFTER INSERT ON account FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
INSERT INTO transaction VALUES (2,account.openDate,CURTIME(),
account.deposit,account.accNo,
"Teller","Cash","Deposit");
END
MySQL gets confused with semicolons inside the BEGIN END block, so you must use DELIMITER to temporarily force MySQL to use a different delimiter.
Documentation: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/create-trigger.html
DELIMITER //
CREATE TRIGGER upTransaction AFTER INSERT ON account FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
INSERT INTO transaction VALUES (2,account.openDate,CURTIME(),account.deposit,account.accNo,"Teller","Cash","Deposit");
END//
DELIMITER ;
You probably need to replace:
INSERT INTO transaction VALUES (2,account.openDate,CURTIME(),account.deposit,account.accNo,"Teller","Cash","Deposit");
with:
INSERT INTO transaction VALUES (2,NEW.openDate,CURTIME(),NEW.deposit,NEW.accNo,"Teller","Cash","Deposit");
Here is you original trigger
CREATE TRIGGER upTransaction AFTER INSERT ON account FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
INSERT INTO transaction VALUES (2,account.openDate,CURTIME(),
account.deposit,account.accNo,
"Teller","Cash","Deposit");
END
Replace account. with NEW. (optional : replace " with ')
DELIMITER $$
CREATE TRIGGER upTransaction AFTER INSERT ON account FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
INSERT INTO transaction VALUES (2,NEW.openDate,CURTIME(),
NEW.deposit,NEW.accNo,
'Teller','Cash','Deposit');
END $$
DELIMITER ;
CREATE
TRIGGER `event_name` AFTER INSERT
ON `database`.`table`
FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
-- trigger body
-- this code is applied to every
-- inserted/updated/deleted row
END;
Seems like you're missing a table name after 'account'. (edit: or a database name before account, I'm not certain as to what account pertains to)
