How to solve this syntax error (MySQL server is 5.5)?
is it possible that triggers are disabled or some such?
EDIT: This is a problem with Eclipse DTP existing since 2009, bugzilla
I believe the error was related to the delimiter. Try this:
DELIMITER $$
CREATE TRIGGER bar_in
BEFORE INSERT ON bar
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
DECLARE foo INT;
END $$
DELIMITER ;

I was running MySQL with Server Version: 10.1.34-MariaDB (Distributed within XAmpp 7.2.7-0-VC15-installer) on Windows 8.1 machine, using PhpMyadmin on Google Chrome to access Mysql database and i got 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 4
for this create trigger syntax :
DROP TRIGGER IF EXISTS Tsopd_main_AfterUpdate;
CREATE TRIGGER Tsopd_main_AfterUpdate AFTER UPDATE
ON sopd_main FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
SET #jns = 1;
END
When i changed the code like this :
DROP TRIGGER IF EXISTS Tsopd_main_AfterUpdate;
CREATE TRIGGER Tsopd_main_AfterUpdate AFTER UPDATE
ON sopd_main FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
END
or like this:
DROP TRIGGER IF EXISTS Tsopd_main_AfterUpdate;
CREATE TRIGGER Tsopd_main_AfterUpdate AFTER UPDATE
ON sopd_main FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
-- SET #jns = 1;
END
it worked.
Can anybody Help me to show me what is wrong?
Thank you.
You need to use the DELIMITER directive to change the query delimiter, so you can use ; inside the trigger definition.
DELIMITER $$
DROP TRIGGER IF EXISTS Tsopd_main_AfterUpdate$$
CREATE TRIGGER Tsopd_main_AfterUpdate AFTER UPDATE
ON sopd_main FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
SET #jns = 1;
END$$
DELIMITER ;
Hey I'm leraning right now for my study Exams.
I have a Problem with Procedures and Functions.
CREATE PROCEDURE testProc()
BEGIN
DECLARE testNR INT;
END
This is my testCode but every Procedure and every Function gives me this Failure:
Error: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 3
SQLState: 42000
ErrorCode: 1064
Error occurred in:
CREATE PROCEDURE testProc()
BEGIN
DECLARE testNR INT
Is there something that I do wrong or do I have Problems with my IDE SQuirrel?
You need to change delimiters while creating the procedure; otherwise ; is seen as the end of the CREATE PROCEDURE statement.
As explained in the docs, you need to
use[] the mysql client delimiter command to change the statement delimiter from ; to // while the procedure is being defined. This enables the ; delimiter used in the procedure body to be passed through to the server rather than being interpreted by mysql itself. See Section 23.1, “Defining Stored Programs”.
It doesn’t have to be //; another common choice is $$.
In your example, this might look like
DELIMITER $$
CREATE PROCEDURE testProc()
BEGIN
DECLARE testNR INT;
END
$$
DELIMITER ;

My Trigger
CREATE TRIGGER `register_notification_after_register`
`AFTER INSERT ON register FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
Set #notification = CONCAT('New Member Register. Membership Code is',' ',new.membership_no,'.');
Set #notificationfor =CONCAT('New Membership');
call notification_masterAddUpdate(1,#notification,#notificationfor,new.reg_date,1);
END
try this:
DELIMITER $$
CREATE TRIGGER `register_notification_after_register`
AFTER INSERT ON register FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
Set #notification = CONCAT('New Member Register. Membership Code is',' ',new.membership_no,'.');
Set #notificationfor =CONCAT('New Membership');
call notification_masterAddUpdate(1,#notification,#notificationfor,new.reg_date,1);
END
$$ -- 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 get an error when I try to create the below trigger on MySQL/MariaDB
CREATE TRIGGER `ABC` BEFORE INSERT ON `TABLE1`
FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
DECLARE LCL_VAR INTEGER;
SET LCL_LCL_VAR = NEW.A - NEW.B;
SET NEW.D= V;
END;

I've got a couple other triggers that I used to build this one. I can't figure out what is wrong syntactically with this. Can I please request for help to spot the problem with this?
When you write a trigger you must specify a delimiter so that mysql explicitly executes your trigger block within the specified delimiter. If the delimiter is not provided then when it encounters any ; within the trigger statement it will try to execute the command till that block and hence you may get errors.
If you are using any user interface tools for generating the trigger you may check if there is an option to set the delimiter like in PHPMyadmin.
In CLI the trigger needs to be having a delimiter and it becomes
delimiter //
create trigger Q_DUR_CALC before insert on TASK_Q_SWH
for each row
begin
declare LCL_Q_DUR INTEGER;
set LCL_Q_DUR = new.TQ_TASK_DUR - new.TQ_TASK_RUN_DUR;
SET new.TQ_Q_DUR = LCL_Q_DUR;
end;//
delimiter ;
The problem was with the ";" after END. Strange that it complained about line 3!!
Here is the corrected version
CREATE TRIGGER `Q_DUR_CALC` BEFORE INSERT ON `TASK_Q_SWH`
FOR EACH ROW BEGIN
DECLARE LCL_Q_DUR INTEGER;
SET LCL_Q_DUR = NEW.TQ_TASK_DUR - NEW.TQ_TASK_RUN_DUR;
SET NEW.TQ_Q_DUR = LCL_Q_DUR;
END
I have a problem with this, and I keep getting this error

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.
