Any suggestions ????
CREATE FUNCTION hello (s CHAR(20)) RETURNS CHAR(50)
RETURN CONCAT('Hello, ',s,'!');
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 '(s Char(20)) Returns Char(50) RETURN CONCAT('HEllo,',s,'!')' at line 1 (State:37000, Native Code: 428)

Error Messages In Function
First, I cannot use PHP or C. My requirements are for a pure MySQL interface. I am using MySQL v5.0.Is there any way to output a message to the console from a FUNCTION?This is needed mostly for error handling, but all error handling functionality seems to only point to PHP or C, which I cannot use. In postgresql this is easily done with RAISE NOTICE 'msg'; Like in Ingres it can be done with WRITE 'msg'; But I am baffled that MySQL does not have any equivalent functionality.

Function For ERROR And/or ERRORNO?
This may seem like a silly question, but MySQL has the mysql_error & mysql_errno API functions. So why is there no similar ERROR & ERRNO that can be called from the command line? Similarly, MS SQL Server, PostgreSQL, INGRES, etc. all have a RAISE ERROR and/or RAISE NOTICE function to output messages to the user. Why is there no similar functionality in MySQL? The above seems like pretty basic functionality that was overlooked. Finally, I searched throughout the MySQL site, mailing lists and forums, but I can find no way to formally request these enhancements. Does anyone know of how that is accomplished?

Replace Function :: Error 1064
I am trying to do an update/replace function in MySQL but I am getting MySQL error #1064.

Error 1305 - Trying To Execute User Defined Function
In my investigation, I attempted to execute the function (named 'esp') and I started getting the error message: (from database named XQ) SELECT esp(0); Error 1305 (42000): FUNCTION XQ.esp does not exist So from there, I attempted to re-install it: CREATE FUNCTION esp RETURNS INTEGER SONAME 'mysqlExtension.so'; I then get this back from mysql: FUNCTION 'esp' already exists. I also tried in vain: DROP FUNCTION esp; same message comes back: Error 1305 (42000): FUNCTION XQ.esp does not exist Not sure where this went wrong. It was working fine then something made it go amok. In one case it says it exists, the other it does not.

User-defined Function: ERROR 2013 (HY000): Lost Connection To MySQL Server During Query
With mysql-4.1.1-alpha, using any User Defined Function ( UDF) at the query execution stage, on Linux 2.6, gave me the following error: "ERROR 2013 (HY000): Lost connection to MySQL server during query" However, upgrading to mysql-4.1.2-alpha seemed to solve the problem. Both versions were configured exactly as follows ../configure --with-openssl --enable-thread-safe-client --with-mysqld-ldflags =-rdynamic The only way I could solve this was by upgrading to 4.1.2-alpha-log. Then, recompiling the functions, drop the old UDF functions, then, recreate. So far so good. Anyway, if you run into this problem, or just want more detail on the sample User Defined Functions that come with MySQL ( /sql/udf_example.cc), I've put my notes in the following link ( TIP 27 )

IF Function,GROUP BY,aggregate Function Problems
Yep, I have all those problems in the title. So I'll explain each one at a time - I did have another thread relating to this very same query but I thought it was time to update where I am with the query because at the moment I feel like I am getting nowhere! The query I have basically searches through an items_ordered table through each product and checks to see whether the item is VATable or not. This is not where I have the problem though. Where I am really having the first problem is when I am trying to use the IF function to check if the TOTAL of an order is over £300. IF it is then I multiply it my 0.95 (i.e. 5% off). With the query below I get no errors but neither do I get the desired result. It's as though it couldn't even see it. =....

SOUNDEX Function
I'm using SOUNDEX mysql function to find similar sounding names from a table with 2 million distinct names. Unfortunately there is a single soundex code for every 200,000 names! Meaning there are only 200,000 distinct codes for 2 million entries. Is there any other function / library / technique to work around this immense 1:10 redundancy ? for example, soundex for 'avis', 'apex' and 'apps' is A120, but I'd like to differentiate between them in my search - meaning implement a "stricter" sound comparison than the soundex function offers.

CONCAT Function
I'm needed to insert large BLOBs into a database. With the 1MB packet limit, sending larger amounts of data would be difficult, so I had a neat idea. I would do an initial insert of an empty record and get the auto_insert ID from the response, and then loop through, appending data to the record. My table is simple. One unsigned int auto_increment field (DataID), and one long blob field (BinaryData). When I loop through the data to send, I run: UPDATE BinaryTable SET BinaryData=CONCAT(BinaryData, 'My binary data here') WHERE DataID = 35 The binary data I insert I escape null characters, backslashes, single and double quotes. The data seems to insert fine. The problem is that as I increase the amount of data in the field, CONCAT seems to drop all but the last 416k of the data. Thus if I loop through adding 400k blocks at a time (Which I do) I am left with at most 800k of data in the blob field. Using 4k blocks I end up with 419k of data in the field when all is said and done. Please let me know if/when this will be fixed, and if there is a work around that might be used, r a better way to insert BLOB data is known.

A Date Function
I read that MySQL needs dates to be in the form YYYY-MM-DD before you can store them in a table. Since users probably won't enter dates in that order (more likely MM-DD-YYYY or MM/DD/YYYY) is there a MySQL date function that I can apply to the date before it is inserted into the database to format the date correctly? (or does the order of the elements have to be taken care of by the application prior to the database query?)
