I have a problem with this, and I keep getting this error
MySQL said: Documentation
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 '' at line 5.
Do you have any ideas for why I keep getting this error?
DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS `prn_insert`;
CREATE PROCEDURE `prn_insert`(id int, name text, description text)
BEGIN
insert into test
select id,name,description;
END
The semicolon is ending the CREATE PROCEDURE statement. To get the entire statement, use a delimiter other than a semicolon. We frequently use $$ (two dollar signs) as a delimiter, but you can use any character sequence that doesn't appear within the statement(s) you want to execute.
For example:
DELIMITER $$
DROP PROCEDURE myproc $$
CREATE PROCEDURE myproc(arg INT)
BEGIN
DECLARE i INT DEFAULT 0;
SET i = 1;
END$$
DELIMITER ;
Once the new delimiter is set, it stays in effect until it's changed to something else. So. we usually want to set it back to semicolon immediately after the `CREATE PROCEDURE' statement.

What is wrong in the following code (please forgive me for very basic question)
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 '' at line 3
CREATE PROCEDURE `getCleanData` ()
BEGIN
replace into CLEAN_TBL SELECT mycolumn FROM DIRTY_TBL;
END;
You need to change the DELIMITER to something else than the default ;.
A DELIMITER tells whe the command ends. By default the delimiter is ;. As procedure itself uses ; in it's syntax (end of statement), you need to change the DELIMITER to something else to that the full procedure code will be executed.
Step 01: change server delimiter -->
DELIMITER //
Step 02: create your procedure with new delimiter you used in step 01
CREATE PROCEDURE `getCleanData` ()
BEGIN
replace into CLEAN_TBL SELECT mycolumn FROM DIRTY_TBL;
END
//
DON'T TRY TO REVERT THE DELIMITER
Right way to do from experts are welcome, because I am not sure what is the right way.....but I feel not having the default delimiter for CREATE PROCEDURE is wrong.
Hey I'm leraning right now for my study Exams.
I have a Problem with Procedures and Functions.
CREATE PROCEDURE testProc()
BEGIN
DECLARE testNR INT;
END
This is my testCode but every Procedure and every Function gives me this Failure:
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 '' at line 3
SQLState: 42000
ErrorCode: 1064
Error occurred in:
CREATE PROCEDURE testProc()
BEGIN
DECLARE testNR INT
Is there something that I do wrong or do I have Problems with my IDE SQuirrel?
You need to change delimiters while creating the procedure; otherwise ; is seen as the end of the CREATE PROCEDURE statement.
As explained in the docs, you need to
use[] the mysql client delimiter command to change the statement delimiter from ; to // while the procedure is being defined. This enables the ; delimiter used in the procedure body to be passed through to the server rather than being interpreted by mysql itself. See Section 23.1, “Defining Stored Programs”.
It doesn’t have to be //; another common choice is $$.
In your example, this might look like
DELIMITER $$
CREATE PROCEDURE testProc()
BEGIN
DECLARE testNR INT;
END
$$
DELIMITER ;
This isn't something I usually have problems with but I don't understand that one now. I tried with backticks, with double quotes, without backticks,...

CREATE PROCEDURE mapping(
p_object INT(10),
brand VARCHAR(255),
model VARCHAR(255))
BEGIN
INSERT INTO `object_brand_model_mapping`
SET `object`=p_object, `brandNameNormalized`=brand, `modelNameNormalized`=model;
END;
I also tried
INSERT INTO `object_brand_model_mapping`
(`object`, `brandNameNormalized`, `modelNameNormalized`)
VALUES
(p_object, brand, model);
which produces exactly the same error.
I don't know what's wrong with this. Do any special rules apply to INSERT in a procedure?
All of the columns do exist.
The parser is getting confused by having a common delimiter between defining the procedure and the procedure contents. To remedy this, define a different delimiter before creating the procedure:
DELIMITER $$
CREATE PROCEDURE mapping(
p_object INT(10),
brand VARCHAR(255),
model VARCHAR(255))
BEGIN
INSERT INTO `object_brand_model_mapping` (`object`, `brandNameNormalized`, `modelNameNormalized`)
VALUES (p_object, brand, model);
END$$
DELIMITER ;
From Alex Silverstein's article on the subject:
The next step is to change the default MySQL script parser’s delimiter from semicolon (;) to double-dollar sign ($$). The reason you do this is so that the semicolons after each statement in the body of the routine are not interpreted by the parser as meaning the end of the CREATE PROCEDURE statement. This is because the entire CREATE PROCEDURE block, from CREATE PROCEDURE to END is actually a single statement that must be executed by itself. Were it not for the delimiter change, the script would break, since there each statement inside BEGIN and END would execute individually. Note that you can use a variety of non-reserved characters to make your own custom delimiter.

$$ -- I am done server, end of block
DELIMITER ;
you had an extra backtick on line two. One needs to set the DELIMITER to block the whole thing. With create event, create stored proc, create trigger, delimiters clue the server into when the whole chunk is done. Remember that the ; ends a statement. The delimiter statement suspends that in favor of something else, then resets at end of block
I am trying to make a procedure to update an existing user. It receives the name of the user and then increments his points column. I have it like this:
CREATE PROCEDURE addPoints (IN nomeus varchar(20))
BEGIN
UPDATE User
SET
points=points+1
WHERE (nome=nomeus) ;
END;
However, I get this error:
#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 '' at line 8
How can I fix it?
When in doubt just go to dev.mysql they have some great documentation there.
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/create-procedure.html
Looks like you found the answer to your own question. However, if you change any of the code in the procedure, don't forget to drop the procedure before trying to create it again.
Drop Procedure if exists addPoints;
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/drop-procedure.html
Yeah, I had to use delimiters:
delimiter //
CREATE PROCEDURE addPoints(IN nomeuser varchar(256))
BEGIN
UPDATE User
SET
points = points + 1
WHERE nome = nomeuser;
END;//
delimiter ;
