I'm trying to create the following trigger in PHP admin but get the following error. I've set delimiter to '//' but still no luck. Any help?
For your information the table is called 'users' and I'm trying to add the UUID to the primary key 'user_id'
CREATE TRIGGER user_id_users_insert BEFORE INSERT ON 'users'
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
SET NEW.user_id=UUID();
END;
#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 ''users'
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
SET NEW.user_id=UUID();
END' at line 1
Quoting 'users' with single-quote ' characters results in it being parsed as a string literal (which is not valid in the ON clause of a CREATE TRIGGER statement) rather than as an SQL object identifier (such as a table name, which is what MySQL expects to see) which, if quoted, must instead use the backtick ` character (or, alternatively, double-quote " characters if MySQL's ANSI_QUOTES SQL mode is enabled). See When to use single quotes, double quotes, and backticks? -- #eggyal

I have the Stored procedure like this:
CREATE PROCEDURE ProG()
BEGIN
SELECT * FROM `hs_hr_employee_leave_quota`;
END
But it gives the error:
#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
What does the error mean? What is wrong with line number 2?
You have to change delimiter before using triggers, stored procedures and so on.
delimiter //
create procedure ProG()
begin
SELECT * FROM hs_hr_employee_leave_quota;
end;//
delimiter ;
How to find out what this MySQL Error is trying to say:
#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax;
This error has no clues in it. You have to double check all of these items to see where your mistake is:
You have omitted, or included an unnecessary symbol: !##$%^&*()-_=+[]{}\|;:'",<>/?
A misplaced, missing or unnecessary keyword: select, into, or countless others.
You have unicode characters that look like ascii characters in your query but are not recognized.
Misplaced, missing or unnecessary whitespace or newlines between keywords.
Unmatched single quotes, double quotes, parenthesis or braces.
Take away as much as you can from the broken query until it starts working. And then use PostgreSQL next time that has a sane syntax reporting system.
Delimiters, delimiters...
You really need them when there are multiple statements in your procedure. (in other words, do you have a ; in your code and then more statements/commands? Then, you need to use delimiters).
For such a simpler rpocedure as yours though, you could just do:
CREATE PROCEDURE ProG()
SELECT * FROM `hs_hr_employee_leave_quota`;
This might be a memmory issue on mysql
try to increase max_allowed_packet in my.ini
MYSQL PROCEDURE steps:
change delimiter from default ' ; ' to ' // '
DELIMITER //
create PROCEDURE, you can refer syntax
NOTE: Don't forget to end statement with ' ; '
create procedure ProG()
begin
SELECT * FROM hs_hr_employee_leave_quota;
end;//
Change delimiter back to ' ; '
delimiter ;
Now to execute:
call ProG();
I got the same error below:
ERROR 1064 (42000): 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
When using a trailing comma as shown below:
create table person(
name varchar(50),
); -- ↑ A trailing comma
So, I removed the trailing comma as shown below, then the error was solved:
create table person(
name varchar(50)
); -- ↑ No trailing comma
And, I also got the same error below:
ERROR 1064 (42000): 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 'count( num int )' at line 1
When there is no space between "count" and "(" as shown below because it's recognized as "count()" which is the built-in function in MySQL:
-- No space
↓
create table count(
num int
);
So, I made a space between "count" and "(" as shown below, then the error was solved:
-- Make a space
↓
create table count (
num int
);
I am trying to insert data in a table but getting error 1064:
INSERT INTO position(positioncode,description)
VALUES ('5000', 'President');
The error message says:
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 'position(positioncode,description) VALUES ('5000',
'President')' at line 1
I have also insert data in other tables on the same way. Can someone help?
position is the name of a function. Quote it by enclosing it inside backticks:
INSERT INTO `position` (positioncode, description) VALUES ('5000', 'President');
The exact behavior of function name parsing is described here:
Function Name Parsing and Resolution.
The description seems to suggest that:
CREATE TABLE count (i INT) could be an error or not depending on IGNORE SPACE setting
CREATE TABLE count(i INT) is always an error
So instead of guessing, always quote built-in function names.
IF OBJECT_ID(N`db_291702_2`.`aaCoRrankingDateManage`, N'U') IS NOT NULL
BEGIN
PRINT 'Table Exists'
END
What is wrong with this? Why do I get errors?
Neither of the suggested ways in how-to-check-if-a-table-exists-in-sql-server/ works for me.
PS. "does not work" means errors like
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 ''db_291702_2'.'aaCoRrankingDateManage' LIMIT 0, 30' at line 1
Additional info:
I am using phpMyAdmin, my two databases are called db_291702_1 and db_291702_2, the latter has two tables, one of them is called aaCoRrankingDateManage
If you want to escape table or column names then use backticks
select `group` from table1
A static string must be included in quotes
select * from users where name = 'john'
And the syntax of every DB engine is a little bit different. The above works for MySQL, but SQL-Server has a different syntax. There you use brackets [] to escape names.
But you only need to escape names if you use reserved words. You don't have to escape everything.
The given source code is no MySQL Code.
I am using mysql 5.5.27
At places where it looks like double quotes are two single quotes closer together, and they are actually null values in the excel sheetin the db.
I get the following error,
com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLS… 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 'CASE,lname,fname,gender,dob,ssn,… at line 1
the actual query is
Insert into
work(CASE,lname,fname,gender,dob
"CASE" is a reserved word : See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/reserved-words.html
You may escape it :
Insert into child(`CASE`,LASTNAME,FIRSTNAME,GENDER,DOB… American','1689 Crucible Street','','Pittsburgh','PA','15210','(4…
But I would personally prefer renaming the column.
CASE is a reserved word ... quote it ..
For mysql:
insert into tableName values()
Anyway you have SQL syntax errors:
Insert into child(CASE,LASTNAME,FIRSTNAME,GENDER,DOB… American','1689 Crucible Street','','Pittsburgh','PA','15210','(4…
Case is a reserwed word: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/reserved-words.html
In DOB… American' you miss a ' ('DOB… American')
