MySQL trigger not working properly - mysql

I'm getting a strange error while trying to use a MySQL trigger.
I'm using XAMPP and creating the trigger using PhpMyAdmin.
The trigger's code is:
BEGIN
DECLARE stud INT(11) DEFAULT 0;
DECLARE sw CURSOR FOR
(SELECT CodiceStudente FROM Listastudenticorsi WHERE CodiceCorso = NEW.CodiceCorso);
OPEN sw;
get_loop: LOOP
FETCH sw INTO stud;
INSERT INTO inbox(Mittente, Destinatario, Oggetto, Contenuto, Data) VALUES (NEW.CodiceDocente, stud, "Nuova news inserita", NEW.Oggetto, NEW.Data);
END LOOP get_loop;
END
And is called BEFORE INSERT into the table 'News'.
What happens is that the syntax is correct, but when I try to run it triggering the event it says "#1329 - No data - zero rows fetched, selected, or processed".
I tried to find out what the real problem is, and it seems to be the line "FETCH sw INTO stud"; I tried many times and the SELECT statement DOES return the correct values, so 'sw' can't be empty... I'm stuck at this point.
There are 3 tables interested by this trigger. 'News' is the one that triggers the event; it has some columns that are called using the keyword "NEW". The second one is Inbox; it is the table in which I'll insert some values after the trigger has performed its actions. Finally, there's "Listastudenticorsi", which means approximately "list of students and courses".
What I do is: when a News is inserted, I get the course it refers to, its object, its date and the submitter of the news, I find (using the select statement) the students who attend the course that the News is referring to, and then send a mail to each of them using the insert statement.

You have no continue handler for the cursor, as I see it. It would allow that cursor to actually do something.
From the mysql Cursor manual page, see this.
Here too is a link to a stored proc I wrote showing a continue handler with a flag specifying done for the loop.

trigger update copy information

I want to create a trigger that does the following:
copy one column of info jobnumber from one table (jobs) to another (materials) on an existing record to attachedjobnumber.
I haven't found the correct syntax to say this. when I insert a new job - nothing gets update and no new row is inserted,,, but there are no error messages in the logs.
I also need to set the bool (hasjobnumber) equal to true - when I test that trigger - it works fine.
which makes me think that setting the value of material.attachedjobnumber = jobs.jobnumber is the problem, my guess is that jobs.jobnumber isn't in reference when updating table material...
if that's true - what's the proper syntax for this?
I've tested separate triggers, and so far this trigger works fine.
UPDATE material
SET isjobyet = "HAS"
WHERE barcode1 IN (
SELECT primaryRFID
FROM jobs
WHERE jobs.primaryRFID = material.barcode1
)
since this code does work - I make the assumption that the non-static JobNumber value is the source of the problem. since "HAS" is correctly updated.
UPDATE material
SET material.AttachedJobNumber = jobs.JobNumber
WHERE barcode1 IN (
SELECT primaryRFID
FROM jobs
WHERE jobs.primaryRFID = material.barcode1
)
from this - I expect that after each inserts on the table jobs:
jobs.JobNumber be assigned to the material.AttachedJobName
this updates only the material row where the material.barcode1 =jobs.primaryrfid.
but no new row is inserted at all.
Before you perform UPDATE,
Actually you can use the same script using SELECT [skip the UPDATE SYNTAX]
That way you can monitor your script without committing anything yet.
And also I dont recommend using this inside the subquery
WHERE jobs.primaryRFID = material.barcode1
This condition connecting a table works on IN-SELECT subquery.
If you are performing subqueries inside the [WHERE] clause, try to treat it as different buffer, dont connect them first.

MSACCESS, how to edit a record after insert using the "after insert" trigger

MS Office 365 ProPlus, Access 2007 - 2016
I'm trying/failing to change the value of a field in a table after it is inserted using the "after insert" trigger. Something like this...
EditRecord
SetField
Name orig_id
Value = [mytable].[id]
End EditRecord
This doesn't seem to work.
USysApplicationLog gives...
SourceObject = mytable.AfterInsert
DataMacro InstanceID = {489D5697-5247-44A8-AE3C-3773A25F72E5}
Error Number = -20335
Category = Execution
Object Type = Macro
Description = EditRecord failed because the default alias represents a record which is read only.
The field is not read only. After the fact I can edit it just fine. I don't know what the "default alias" is nor what that even means.
If the trigger can't do this, can you think of another way to accomplish the same thing ?
You don't want to use the AfterInsert, since then the record is already saved, and tucked away nicely, and everything you need to change in that record is assumed to have been done. In fact, the default context will cause the record in question to be read only. You CAN get around this by pulling the record again, (looking up a record), but if you modify it again then all of the triggers for that record will fire again.
So I ONLY suggest you use this event to sum() or add/edit OTHER tables, but not the record that was just edited and saved.
If you need/want to update this current record, then move your "edit" or "modify" code to the "BeforeChange". This event not only lets you edit/modify right before the save (and thus preventing endless loops in which the update triggers fire again and again), but the CURRENT record is in full context, and you don't even need any "edit record" command, since you have the fresh un-saved record right in context. You thus can use SetField without the need for EditRecord.
So, the AfterInsert is really too late here, and if you could modify the record in that event, you will cause the AfteUpdate event to fire again if you do use a workaround.
Now, if you use BeforeChange, it will fire for both insert and edits (change). So, if your code really only needs to run when inserting, you can check this status by using
If [isinsert] = True then
Edit
Also, it looks like your code is attempting to save (capture) the previous value, and if it is, then you can use:
[old].[id]
Of course this does not make too much sense for "id", since that is usually an autonumber PK column, but for grabbing other values during an update in the BeforeChange event, you can certainly test + inspect the previous (old) values.

How to update multiple records in same table using .AfterUpdate data macro without error "A data macro resource limit was hit."

I have a table tblItems with a list of inventory items. The table has many columns to describe these items, including columns for SupplierName, SupplierOrderNumber and PredictedArrivalDate.
If I order several new items from a supplier, I will record each item separately in the table with the same supplier name, order number and a predicted arrival date.
I would like to add a data macro, so that if I update the PredictedArrivalDate for one record, the value will be copied to the PredictedArrivalDate column of other records/items with the same SupplierName AND SupplierOrderNumber.
The closest I've got is:
SetLocalVar (MySupplierName, [SupplierName])
SetLocalVar (MySupplierOrderNumber , [SupplierOrderNumber ])
SetLocalVar (MyPredictedArrivalDate, [PredictedArrivalDate])
For Each Record in tblItems
Where Condition = [SupplierOrderNumber] Like [MySupplierOrderNumber] And [SupplierName] Like [MySupplierName] And [PredictedArrivalDate]<>[MyPredictedArrivalDate]
Alias OtherRecords
EditRecord
SetField ([OtherRecords].[PredictedArrivalDate], [MyPredictedArrivalDate])
End EditRecord
However, when I run this, only 5 records update, and the error log reports error -20341:
"A data macro resource limit was hit. This may be caused by a data
macro recursively calling itself. The Updated() function may be
used to detect which field in a record has been updated to help
prevent recursive calls."
How can I get this working?
I'm not one for using macro's to do anything, so I'd use VBA and recordsets/an action query to do the updating.
You can call a user-defined function inside a data macro by setting a local var equal to its result.
Access doesn't like data macros triggering themselves (which you are doing, you're using an on update macro and updating fields in the same table on a different record), because there is a risk of accidentally creating endless loops. Looks like you triggered a measure that's made to prevent this. I'd try to avoid that as much as possible.
Note: using user-defined functions inside data macros can cause problems when you're linking to the table from outside of Access (via ODBC for example).
This isn't a good solution (it's not a data macro), but it does work as a temporary fix.
I created an update query called "updatePredictedArrivalDate":
PARAMETERS
ItemID Long,
MyPredictedArrivalDate DateTime,
MySupplierName Text ( 255 ),
MySupplierOrderNumber Text ( 255 );
UPDATE tblItems
SET tblItems.PredictedArrivalDate = [MyPredictedArrivalDate]
WHERE (((tblItems.SupplierName) = [MySupplierName])
AND ((tblItems.SupplierOrderNumber) = [MySupplierOrderNumber])
AND ((tblItems.ID) <> [ItemID]));
On the PredictedArrivalDate form field .AfterUpdate event, I then added this macro:
IF [PredictedArrivalDate].[OldValue]<>[PredictedArrivalDate] Or [PredictedArrivalDate]<>""
OpenQuery (updatePredictedArrivalDate, Datasheet, Edit, [ID], [PredictedArrivalDate], [SupplierName], [SupplierOrderNumber])
I now have to remember to add this .AfterUpdate event to any other forms I create that amend that particular field.
If anyone has a better solution, please let me know.

Oracle Forms Execute_query giving FRM-40737 error

I am getting an error
FRM - 40737 - illegal restricted procedure GO_BLOCK in
WHEN-VALIDATE-RECORD trigger.
My Code is
IF event_name = 'WHEN-VALIDATE-RECORD'
THEN
IF (form_name = 'OEXOEORD' AND block_name = 'ORDER')
THEN
-- call procedure to validate and cascade the ship method code.
cascade_ship_method;
execute_query;
END IF;
What am I doing wrong here ?
This is because Oracle Forms has two types of built-in procedures - restricted and unrestricted. Some triggers enable restricted procedures, some not (see Oracle Forms help, every trigger has information which procedures it enables).
Trigger WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM fires for example when user moves cursor from one record to the other (this is called navigation). In this case it leaves one record and enters other. There is fired following chain of triggers
WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM
WHEN-VALIDATE-RECORD
POST-ITEM
POST-RECORD
PRE-RECORD
PRE-ITEM
If any of this trigger fails, navigation is canceled and cursor returns to the original item. If you call any procedure, which starts new navigation (like GO_BLOCK), Oracle Forms would not be able to manage first navigation.
This is, why some procedures are restricted.
It might be relevant with content of cascade_ship_method. When I got this error, I had missed an apostrophe in the SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY statement. When I fixed, it worked. This is the correct structure in my code block:
SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY (
'TABLE_A',
default_where,
'column_a= '
|| ''''
|| variable
|| '''');

Does LINQ to SQL support Single Unit of work only or can I persist the Context and do Next operation?

I have a windows application. I am trying to insert a record through a DataContext. It has Unique identifier in the table. Even I am executing a trigger after insertion. So I am making a select query in the end of the trigger to get the auto generator number and to avoid auto-sync error. As it's a windows application I can keep the Context for longtime. When I create a new object ( for example order) and do the same previous operation, upon SubmitChanges operation, it shows cannot have duplicate key. Why can't I use this same Context to Insert the second record? Or do I need to create a new Context to insert a new Record?(Does this Unit of work Concept comes here?). Creating new Context is bad idea as I need to load all data again..
Any thought?
Some code sample to explain my situation:
CallCenterLogObjCotext = (CallCenterLogObjCotext == null ? (new CallcenterLogContext) : (CallCenterLogObjCotext));
CallDetail newCallDetailsOpenTicket = new CallDetail();
newCallDetailsOpenTicket.CallPurpose = (from callpuposelist in CallCenterLogObjCotext.CallPurposes
where callpuposelist.CallPurposeID == ((CallPurpose)(cbcallpurpose.SelectedItem)).CallPurposeID
select callpuposelist).FirstOrDefault();
Lots of settings like this ...
CallCenterLogObjCotext.CallDetails.InsertOnSubmit(newCallDetailsOpenTicket);
CallCenterLogObjCotext.SubmitChanges();
As I mentioned above, this is a click on Open Ticket button on windows form. I change the values of fname, lname and all in the textboxes available on that form and clicked the same button.
So it will call the same method again. I get the below specified error:
System.Data.Linq.DuplicateKeyException: Cannot add an entity with a key that is already in use.
You can insert more than one row with the same context object, see http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2007/05/19/using-linq-to-sql-part-1.aspx, http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb425822.aspx, and other numerous online examples. The duplicate key issue could be a linq to sql configuration issue, or a database integrity error, i.e. such as if you have a natural primary key on a table and are trying to insert a row with the same natural primary key more than once.
