I'm trying to parameterize a set of frequently used queries in my workbench.
This works:
select * from providers where id='112233';
This
WbVarDef var1=112233;
select * from providers where id='$[var1]';
gives error
Error Code: 1064. You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near 'from providers where id='112233'' at line 1
My reference was this.
Just to be clear, these are in the MySQL workbench and not a workbench script file or a mysql script file.
In MySQL, syntax for setting variable is below.
SET #var1 = '112233';
and using the variable would be as below.
select * from providers where id=#var1;
Check out MySQL documentation for more information Link to MySQL Documentation
Based on your tag mysql-workbench, I find it simply to be a case where the referenced documentation and use is not relevant to what you are using.
Back up the hierarchy from your link to this http://www.sql-workbench.net/
and you will read:
Please note that SQL Workbench/J has no relation to the product MySQL
Workbench which is maintained and owned by Oracle. If you
are looking for MySQL Workbench support please contact Oracle.

I'm running MySQL 8.0.26 inside a Linux container, using Docker.
I am attempting to run a stress test by infinitely selecting data from a table named employees in the employees database. To attempt this, I am embedding a SELECT statement inside of a WHILE loop, with a search condition that always returns true.
I am attempting to issue the following query against the MySQL engine, using the MySQL CLI tool.
WHILE 1=1 DO
SELECT * FROM employees.employees;
END WHILE;
When I run this query, I receive the error message as follows.
Error invoking remote method 'DB_EXECUTE_CANCELLABLE_QUERY': Error: 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 'WHILE 1=1 DO SELECT * FROM employees.employees; END WHILE' at line 1
According to the MySQL documentation, I am using the correct syntax. What is wrong with this SQL statement?
Docs: MySQL Comparison Operators
Docs: MySQL WHILE Statement
The WHILE statement is only valid inside MySQL stored procedures, functions.
I am at the very beginning of mysql, trying to insert data into a new schema called crashcourse.
My code is:
use crashcourse;
source /Users/chenxinyu/Downloads/mysql_scripts/create.sql ;
source /Users/chenxinyu/Downloads/mysql_scripts/populate.sql ;
But it turns out that "11:35:24 source /Users/chenxinyu/Downloads/mysql_scripts/create.sql Error Code: 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 'source /Users/chenxinyu/Downloads/mysql_scripts/create.sql' at line 1 0.00031 sec", so how can I solve this problem?
There are a number of commands, including source, that are only recognized by the MySQL command-line client. See https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/mysql-commands.html
These commands are parsed and handled by that client, and are not sent to the MySQL Server. This makes them different from all other SQL statements, which are sent to the server to be parsed and executed.
Other clients, such as MySQL Workbench, phpmyadmin, and other developer tools, would need to implement support for those special client-side commands themselves. Few of them do.
Likewise when you write code to use the MySQL API in your own applications, unless you pre-check the SQL statement and handle the special client-only commands yourself, they are not supported.
I want to execute SOURCE data/keyw.sql from C program. This query works fine when I execute from the command line but gives the following error on executing mysql_query(con, "SOURCE data/keyw.sql")
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 'SOURCE data/keyw.sql' at line 1
Any help would be highly appreciated.
The SOURCE command is not executed on the MySQL server. It is interpreted by the mysql Client, and is basically just a convenience.
Quote from MySQL documentation:
mysql sends each SQL statement that you issue to the server to be executed. There is also a set of commands that mysql itself interprets. For a list of these commands, type help or \h at the mysql> prompt:
Note that source is one of those listed. If you want to know how it works, then have a look at the source code for the mysql Client.
If your source to be executed contains more than one MySQL statement then your connection will need to support multiple statement execution, or alternatively you need to parse the SQL into individual statements yourself.
I need to import few tables from MySQL to MSSQL. Below are the steps I followed in SSIS
1). Open the SQL Server Import/Export Wizard.
2). Source connections defined as per the MySQL ODBC Connector.
3). Destination defined as per MSSQL SQL authentication.
now when i try to run the package, i get the following error
"you have an error in your sql syntax; check the manual that corresponds right syntax"
On digging deep into the issue, i found that it is trying to fetch items using a query
Select * from "table"
How do i avoid double quotes? I know it is something to do with ANSI_QUOTES, but how do I set ANSI_QUOTES property
In the file ProgramData\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\my.ini edit the "sql-mode" property.
sql-mode="STRICT_TRANS_TABLES,NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION,ANSI_QUOTES"
