Migration from SQL Server 2008 to Azure - sql-server-2008

I'm using SQLAzureMW v3.8.8 but I get lots of errors in the script generated. And the problem is that i don't know in which line is each error generated.
Error #: 105 -- Unclosed quotation mark after the character string
'CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[spAdminParametrosGet]
Error #: 156 -- Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'ELSE'.
Error #: 40512 -- Deprecated feature 'NOLOCK or READUNCOMMITTED in
UPDATE or DELETE' is not supported in this version of SQL Server.
Incorrect syntax near '
The TSQL script generates sql stored procedures as strings and are created using dynamic SQL. Some stored procedures have comments inside of it.
May that be the cause or any suggestion to quickly migrate the database to Azure?

It is very much possible that some of the SP and other statements which you want to migrate from SQL Server to SQL Azure are not compatible. Here is a list of supported and unsupported TSQL features:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/ee336250.aspx
Also you haven't mentioned what is your source SQL Server is? As not all SQL Server will full features are supported by SAMQ (3.8 or 4.01)
Also please match your TSQL statements from the unsupported list below and check if any of listed below are part of your TSQL statements:

MySql.EntityFrameworkCore generating invalid SQL syntax on SaveChanges

I am trying to use .NET 7 and EntityFramework with MySQL.
I am using MySql.EntityFrameworkCore v7.0.0 installed via NUGET.
I am able to scaffold my context and entities ("reverse engineer / db first"). Also I can successfully use the generated DbContext and query the entities.
When I attempt to do an update to an entity I get a MySqlException on calling SaveChanges().
MySqlException: 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 'RETURNING row_updated_time;
I did some Google searches and I can see that the keyword RETURNING is not valid syntax in MySql (but it is valid syntax in Oracle and PostGres -- this is interesting, and odd).
The complete SQL that is generated for this UPDATE (amounting to two SQL statements in one call):
UPDATE `state_agency` SET `abbreviation` = #p0
WHERE `code` = #p1
RETURNING `row_updated_time`;
SELECT `row_updated_time`
FROM `state_agency`
WHERE ROW_COUNT() = 1 AND `code` = #p1;
Is this problem familiar to anyone?
Can you suggest a possible reason why I am seeing Oracle/Postgres syntax get generated by the MySql provider?
My gut tells me that there is some sort of configuration problem and the Oracle syntax is coming out of a different provider, rather than the MySql provider.
I just ran into this exact problem and after some additional research found out the keyword RETURNING is valid mySQL syntax added in version 8.0.21
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/keywords.html#keywords-8-0-detailed-R
This got me headed down a versioning mismatch direction. Eventually I landed here:
https://www.nuget.org/packages/Pomelo.EntityFrameworkCore.MySql
I figured out in my case the server's version of mySQL was 5.7.29 and I had to specify that.
var connectionString = "server=localhost;user=root;password=1234;database=ef";
var serverVersion = new MySqlServerVersion(new Version(5, 7, 29));
// Replace 'YourDbContext' with the name of your own DbContext derived class.
services.AddDbContext<YourDbContext>(
dbContextOptions => dbContextOptions
.UseMySql(connectionString, serverVersion)
);

JMeter sql syntax error using parameters with insert

I'm working with JMeter to load test queries on a mySQL database (memsql server, mySQL syntax). I'm using a gui version of JMeter to create a test plan xml file and then go to another server and run that xml in non-gui mode.
I have two queries running, one that selects and one that inserts. Both queries use parameters taken from a csv file I made with a script.
My SELECT statement works just fine with parameters taken from a csv file but I run into syntax errors with my INSERT statement:
INSERT INTO customer_transactions_current (`column_name1`, ... , `column_name12`)
VALUES ((${r1},${r2},${r3},${r4},${r5},${r6},${r7},${r8},${r9},${r10},${r11},${r12}));
In the section of the query in the gui mode under 'CSV Data Set Config' I choose to delimit the data by ',' and the variable names are r1,..,r12.
Under the query itself I entered the parameter types and again the same names, just as I did for the working SELECT query.
When I run the query I run into a syntax error on the first column (which is of type datetime):
java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException: 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 &apos;19:00:00,75400492,936988,56,1115,5,2156,8,2,3,909,3))&apos; at line 2
The dates I'm entering are of the form: '2018-11-2 20:00:00' and in the csv file they are present without apostrophes.
It seems that the syntax error has something to do with the date and in the position where it holds a space. I tried entering the STR_TO_DATE function for that column but kept getting syntax errors.
BUT when I try to take some values from the file and manually run the query it works fine! So my thoughts are that it has something to do JMeter's conversion of spaces before sending out the query.
Is the problem with my configurations of JMeter? Since the query is OK manually.
Add apostrophes to insert and remove unnecessary parenthesis
INSERT INTO customer_transactions_current ('column_name1', ... , 'column_name12')
VALUES ('${r1}','${r2}','${r3}','${r4}','${r5}','${r6}','${r7}','${r8}','${r9}','${r10}','${r11}','${r12}');
If you have date issue see using STR_TO_DATE

SQL syntax error has occurred

Here is my simple query:
my $SQLp = "SELECT MAX([PawnPayments].[CreationTimeDate]) as MaxTransDate
FROM [PawnSafeDBCE].[dbo].[PawnPayments]
INNER JOIN [PawnSafeDBCE].[dbo].[PawnPaymentDetails]
ON [PawnPayments[.[PaymentID] = [PawnPaymentDetails].[PaymentID]
WHERE [PawnPaymentDetails].[TicketID[ = '$TicketID'
AND [PawnPaymentDetails].[StoreID] ='$StoreID'
Note that query is written on Perl engine. I keep receiving an error that 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 '[PawnPayments].[CreationTimeDate]) as MaxTransDate:"
I believe the error has to do with the bracket notation, but unfortunately, I am having to use this style due to a poorly constructed 3rd party table. Any help? Am I missing something obvious?
Huge EDIT: The table I am querying is actually on a SQL server, not a MySQL server! My database runs on the MySQL server, but this 3rd party database runs on an older version of Microsoft SQL.
I don't know why you have all those square brackets around your table and column names, but they aren't necessary and they aren't standard SQL. That's what is causing your syntax error.
my $SQLp = "SELECT MAX(PawnPayments.CreationTimeDate) as MaxTransDate
FROM PawnSafeDBCE.dbo.PawnPayments
INNER JOIN PawnSafeDBCE.dbo.PawnPaymentDetails
ON PawnPayments.PaymentID = PawnPaymentDetails.PaymentID
WHERE PawnPaymentDetails.TicketID = '$TicketID'
AND PawnPaymentDetails.StoreID ='$StoreID'";
I'll also add that having variables interpolated in your SQL statement like that is potentially leaving you open to SQL injection attacks. Far better to use bind points in your SQL and use extra arguments to execute to fill in the values (assuming you're using DBI).
my $SQLp = "SELECT MAX(PawnPayments.CreationTimeDate) as MaxTransDate
FROM PawnSafeDBCE.dbo.PawnPayments
INNER JOIN PawnSafeDBCE.dbo.PawnPaymentDetails
ON PawnPayments.PaymentID = PawnPaymentDetails.PaymentID
WHERE PawnPaymentDetails.TicketID = ?
AND PawnPaymentDetails.StoreID = ?";
my $sth = $dbh->prepare($SQLp);
$sth->execute($TicketID, $StoreID);
Update: As Bill Karwin points out in a comment, the database.schema.table syntax makes no sense in a MySQL database. So I think you're a little confused. The error message you are getting definitely mentions MySQL, so you're connecting to a MySQL server, using DBD::MySQL - but perhaps you should be connecting to an MSSQL server instead.
It might be useful if you showed us your database connection code - the call that sets up your $dbh (or equivalent) variable.
You say you are querying a MS SQL database, but the error message clearly says you are using a MySQL database or a MySQL database driver.
If you are querying a MS SQL database, fix your connection string.
If you are querying a MySQL database, use a MySQL-compatible query. MySQL uses backticks to quote identifiers (not square brackets like MS SQL).
[PawnPayments].[CreationTimeDate]
should be
`PawnPayments`.`CreationTimeDate`
Note that your code suffers from injection bugs due to incorrect quoting of value inserted into the SQL query. (It's not good enough just to put quotes around the values!) These can cause your code to fail, and they could make you vulnerable to injection attacks. Fix the quoting, or use replaceable parameters.

mysql DB Import script issue on version 5.6

I have a production server that hosts mysql 5.0 database. From there I exported the db backup script using export feature provided in phpmyadmin.
Now I want to restore database script on new server that 5.6 mysql. But when I run the import script I get following error:
Error Description:
unexpected character. (near at position mysql
On further investigation I found that the query was getting break at following location, please see image given below:
I noticed that this scring variable has 102129 Characters I also verified that I put '' in starting or in between then it does not break, but after n character it breaks & quite visible in phpmyadmin editor.
I am aware of using \' escape specifier, but this option is not useful in my case as this script is really long I manually can't replace such occurrances.
Please suggest any really healping solution.
Info:
While I was writing this post, I tried to execute the DB Script for single Record only (i.e., removing all other script) then i executed successfully. Therefore I can't identify the real reason for this issue.
Please suggest any db migration technique that I can use in this scenario.
Thanks
EDIT:
Following is the query that is being throwing exception on production phpmyadmin, but working elsewhere:

(ASP) MS Access -> MySQL: Error in Select, where [..] strings

I am using a portal system on my website and modified the ASP code heavily.
Since the website is growing, I want to migrate from MS Acces to MySQL.
Now, I think the portal I'm using (and some code I inputted) aren't MySQL compatable, because when I switch to the MySQL database, I get the following error.
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e14'
[MySQL][ODBC 5.1 Driver][mysqld-5.1.55-community]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 '[EzModuleID],
[ModName] From EzCore_Plugin Where IsModActive='1'' at line 1
[website]\WWWROOT\BOXX\INCLUDES../../includes/include.asp, line 3736
The SQL string regarding this line is the following:
Select [EzModuleID], [ModName] From EzCore_Plugin Where [IsModActive] = 1;
Im new to MySQL and I can't find why this is giving an error.
I've tried the quote's around 1, removing [], removing the space..
I think that when I figure out why this is causing an error, I can continue modifying the rest to make the website work on mysql.
Lose the square brackets
(I might as well post this as the answer rather than a comment)
In MySQL column and table names can be escaped with the backtick character ` or if the ANSI SQL mode is enabled with double quotes ".
Your WHERE clause (according to the error message) is Where IsModActive='1'. This works if IsModActive is a text column. If it is numeric, drop the single quotes. If IsModActive is a Boolean, change the clause to Where IsModActive IS true.
