I have this bit of SQL that always returns an error, though I can't find why it is returning the error. I have connected to the database with no errors. I'm running PHP 5.2.17, MySQL 5.5.25a, and Apache 2.4.2.
The SQL:
DELETE FROM mail WHERE to=1
The 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 'to=1' at line 1
TO is a reserved word, you need to use backticks:
DELETE FROM mail WHERE `to` = 1
By adding backticks on the column name escapes in from MySQL Reserved Word
DELETE FROM mail WHERE `to`=1
if the column to is not e.g. INT or DEC you should make it to = "1"

select b1.blog_id, blog_name, blog_desc, b1.blog_date, blog_author, blog_img, ifnull(count(blog_cmt),0) AS blog_cmt
from blog b1, user_blog b2"
I got a error in this:
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 1
Error #1064 means that MySQL can't understand your command. To fix it:
Read the error message. It tells you exactly where in your command
MySQL got confused.
Check the manual. By comparing against what MySQL
expected at that point, the problem is often obvious.
Check for reserved words. If the error occurred on an object identifier, check
that it isn't a reserved word (and, if it is, ensure that it's
properly quoted).
You need to remove the quotes at the end and run your query. Looks like there is a typo, you intended a ; instead.
select b1.blog_id, blog_name, blog_desc, b1.blog_date, blog_author, blog_img, ifnull(count(blog_cmt),0) AS blog_cmt
from blog b1, user_blog b2;
Someone gave me this query to delete community from a database on my server using phpMyAdmin, it worked when he use it so I asked him to send it to me, but I get a 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 '"SELECT * FROM `connections` WHERE 1" :
delete from connections where communit' at line 1
I did a search on the error but could not figure it out.
"SELECT * FROM `connections` WHERE 1" :
delete from connections where community="XYZ"
You should separate your queries with ; and not :
The error you are receiving as you've shown it is because this line is incorrect:
SELECT * FROM `connections` WHERE 1"
First because it's ending in an unnecessary double quotation mark. MySQL does not use double quotes but single quotes, and even still the other single quote is not there to match it.
The single quotes are also a problem for community="XYZ", this should read: community = 'XYZ'
Secondly, you don't have a condition for your where statement, you must be missing something like:
WHERE columnName = 1;
If you were trying to select everything from connections, you can just remove that where clause all together.
EDIT
In addition, MySQL queries are separated by a semi-colon, not a colon, so MySQL will not realize you are trying two different queries.
I have this query
update user_remember_me set
when='2012-07-06 05:44:27',
hash='c8e9d2c0dd156b5c68d0b048e5daa948e6b8fac7'
where user = '21';
and I am getting this error
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 'when='2012-07-06 05:44:27', hash='c8e9d2c0dd156b5c68d0b048e5daa948e6b8fac7' wher' at line 1
Im failing to miss the connection here, I've used simple updates like this everywhere without issue til this, maybe Im getting to tired, but this is gonna drive me nuts til I have an answer
When is a key word in mysql, change the column name
or you can use it as
`when`='2012-07-06 05:44:27'
when is a reserved word in mysql
update user_remember_me set
`when`='2012-07-06 05:44:27',
`hash`='c8e9d2c0dd156b5c68d0b048e5daa948e6b8fac7'
where user = '21';
So you must backtick your column
when is a keyword within MySQL. You have to escape it, if you want to use it as a column identifier (as you should with all column identifiers!):
UPDATE user_remember_me
SET
`when`='2012-07-06 05:44:27',
`hash`='c8e9d2c0dd156b5c68d0b048e5daa948e6b8fac7'
WHERE `user` = '21';
I recently added a new table to my database and am getting the following error when I attempt a delete.
DELETE FROM usage WHERE date='2011-07-26';
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 'usage where date='2011-07-26'' at line 1
EDIT: Turns out usage is a reserved word. See this link for reserved words:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/reserved-words.html
Try:
DELETE FROM `usage` WHERE `date` = '2011-07-26';
Escape your table names with a back tick (`) to avoid the clashing with reserved words. USAGE is a reserved word in this case.
I am using EDMX with MySql 5.1. It is working fine except When I try to execute the lambda expression, it shows me the following 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 '[XYZ].[UserID] AS [UserID], [XYZ].[FirstName] A' at line 17
where [XYZ] is the table name and [UserID], [FirstName] are the columns of that table. Following is the statement, that I want to execute -
_context.XYZSet.Where(org => org.ACDID == sbuID || !(org.ACDID.HasValue)).ToList();
Please help..
I do not know anything about EDMX, but from that error it looks like it's using MS SQL Server syntax to escape table and column names, which is not supported by MySQL. MySQL uses backticks for that, not square brackets.
If you could get EDMX to stop escaping the table and columns names then you might be okay, assuming none of the table/column names are reserved words.
