Mysql UPDATE Error

the following results in "Invalid SQL syntax error".
I tried a few different options but none seemed to have worked. Would someone please help. I believe the error is around/after the WHERE statement.

$query = "UPDATE ATAMA_users SET ".
"user_name = "" . $formVars["username"] . "", " .
"user_passwd = "" . $formVars["loginPassword"] . "", " .
"user_firstname = "" . $formVars["firstname"] . "", " .
"user_lastname = "" . $formVars["lastname"] . "", " .
"user_email = "" . $formVars["email"] . "", " .
"user_phone = "" . $formVars["phone"] . "" .
" WHERE user_id = " . $userID . """ ;

MySQL Update Syntax Error
I am currently developing a simple content management system for my personal website hosted at waynegrills.co.uk and have stepped into a trench full of water with no rope to help me out, if you get what I mean, this error keeps on popping up what is wrong with the following code?

if(isset($_GET['changeorder']))
{
foreach ($HTTP_POST_VARS as $key=>$value)
{
if (substr($key, 0, 6) == "order|")
{
$orderid = substr($key, 6);
$query = "UPDATE pages SET order = '$value' WHERE id = '$orderid' LIMIT 1";
mysql_query($query)
or die("The coder FUCKED up - SQL Error: ".mysql_error());
}
}
}

Getting Error In Batch Update
I am using Mysql 4.1.13 with Tomcat5 and Connector mysql-connector-java-3.1.10. When I try to update the table in batch mode sometimes( When server is idle for a long time) get following error. Code:

UPDATE Syntax Error
I've just installed MySQL 5 on my Mac and am trying to update a couple of tables - the syntax I'm using seems to be right, but I constantly get an error.

Here's what I have - feel free to point out my stupidity...

SELECT ibf_members.id,
ibf_pfields_content.member_id,
ibf_members.mgroup,
ibf_pfields_content.field_2
FROM ibf_members INNER JOIN ibf_pfields_content ON ibf_members.id = ibf_pfields_content.member_id

UPDATE ibf_pfields_content
SET field_2='Member'
WHERE ibf_members.mgroup = 3

Error On UPDATE Command
on this statemet:
UPDATE semaphoreTable SET semaphore = CONTROL_NONE

i get this error:
Unknown column 'CONTROL_NONE' in 'field list'"

it is indeed true that there is no column named CONTROL_NONE.
i am trying to set the data in semaphore to CONTROL_NONE

semaphoreTable consists of one field, called semaphore, a varchar(50)

Update Query Not Working: SQL Error
i'm trying to do an update such as ...

Update Doesn't Work - 1064 Error
The code:

update course_series_assignments as c, users as u
set c.user=u.UsersID
where c.user=u.User;

...returns an error "1064-You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'as c, users as u set c.user=u.UsersID where c.user=u.User;' at line 1".

The c.user column currently contains varchar data like "John Smith", as does u.User. The u.UsersID column contains an auto-incremented unsigned integer. I want the integers to replace the full names in the c table where they match the User column in the u table.

Update Failing With Error 1062
I issue an update statement containing a where clause on the primary index, so as to update a single record. Howerver this is failing with "Duplicate entry '6' for key 1" -
update clients.calendarentry
set Subject = 'presentation'
where idCalendarEntry = 6;

In the table, the field 'idCalendarEntry' is declared as :
`idCalendarEntry` int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment

The server version of MySql I am using is 5.0.24
The client version of MySql I am using is 5.0.11

Blob Update In Perl DBI Gives Syntax Error
I have a Perl app that stores pictures in a blob. Now I want to load a
thumbnail version of the picture into another blob column, but the update
fails with a syntax error. I'm able to insert the new record, with blobs,
into a separate table, but can't update the original record. Is it not
possible to update blobs?

Error On Update Or Insert Data But No Message
I have an application on asp and mysql 5.0, connecting with ODBC 3,51. When the application insert data or update data, MySql don't send error message, but the data don't update or insert. The transaction is ignored!!!!. Then, on my application I can't detect error. My code:

set Command1 = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Command")
Command1.ActiveConnection = MM_base_STRING
Command1.CommandText = "UPDATE EXAM SET MaAnt='"&MaAnt&"',Mois='"&Mois&"',Annee='"&Annee&"',[...]WHERE Id_Exam='"&id&"'"
Command1.CommandType = 1
Command1.CommandTimeout = 0
Command1.Prepared = true
Command1.Execute()

Have anybody an idea?

Update INT UNIQUE Column - Duplicate Entry Error
As an example, I'm creating a table which holds following values in MySql 5.0:

idcol lft (unique)
1 1
2 2
3 3
4 4

-> when I try to update the lft column using :

UPDATE unique_example
set lft = lft +1
where lft > 1;

I get following error message :

Duplicate entry '3' for key 2

Exactly the same approach works using SQL server 2000. Apparently, MySQL processes the rows one by one, as it throws an error on the UNIQUE lft column from whom I wish to update all rows at once? Code:

1146 MySqlCC Error Cant Update Table Data
I am working with MYSQLCC (Control Center) and when I try and add data to a table using the run query it errors out with error 1146.

error 1146. table rossoptical.1 doesn't exist.

my table name is asphericallenses

It seems like there is a reference pointer problem!

This is my first time using the MYSQLCC and I dropped the table and recreated it with all of the data. I Still the same problem.

I have read a lot about other problems here and I think I have done everything suggested.

even when I run the select query I get the same problem, but I do see the columns of data, I just can not change the data.

Error #1293: There Can Be Only One TIMESTAMP Column With CURRENT_TIMESTAMP In DEFAULT Or ON UPDATE Clause
I am using MySQL 4.0/4.1 version. And I am trying to add two timestamp columns to a single table. The columns are insert_date and updat_date to capture the date/time the record was initially inserted as well as the date/time the record was last updated respectively.

When I try to set one column (insert_date) with a default value of CURRENT_TIMESTAMP and the other column (updat_date) with ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, I end up getting the following error:

#1293 - Incorrect table definition; there can be only one TIMESTAMP column with CURRENT_TIMESTAMP in DEFAULT or ON UPDATE clause

Is there any way around this problem?

New Error 1146 Error And Behavior With Mysqlcc + Mysql-5.0.15
I have just switched from mysql-4.1.14 on a FreeBSD-4.11 box to
mysql-5.0.15 on a FreeBSD-6.0 box. In both environments I use mysqlcc
to select, insert and update tables. On the 4.1.14 machine, using
mysqlcc, I could double click in a field and change its value; only if
I had selected all the fields. I couls not do this if I had selected a
subset of the fields. The number of rows returned didn't matter, as
long as I did "select * from..." I could directly edit a field value in
mysqlcc.

Now, under mysql-5.0.15, I cannot edit fields at all, whether I "select
* from..." or not. And every select I do gives me this error in
mysqlcc's explain pane:

[mymachine] ERROR 1146: Table 'tablename.1' doesn't exist

Well it certainly does exist, and I can edit its values using the mysql
client or phpmyadmin (ugh, clumsy). There are lots of posts on the net
about error 1146 and various apps and various versions of mysql and
even mysqlcc. mysqlcc had this problem with an earlier version of mysql
than 5.x but this supposedly was fixed with release 0.94.

Can anyone give me some insight on what's going on here, or a
workaround? Or another gui client that works as well as mysqlcc?

MySQL Error, #1064 - You Have An Error In Your SQL Syntax.
I was adding a table in phpMyAdmin and when i clicked on go it produced this SQL CREATE

Mysql 1450 Error False Error
how to get more information than this? I am not running out of resources, I have a website written in Perl and than an external Java Server accessing the same database.

It seems that the Java Server is somehow either locking a table or taking more resources than it should. Is there anyway I can adjust the my.ini file to allow more resources to fix this error? Or flick a flag to get more information to what exactly is causing the error?

MySQL AB: MySQL - INSERT DELAYED, Wheres The Equivelent For UPDATE?
I'm having fun doing a large scale UPDATE on a database table. I found I can do an INSERT DELAYED to do bulk inserts without blocking the apache thread, but there doesn't seem to be an equivelent for updating.

Complex Query - UPDATE Within UPDATE?
Edit: Before anyone leaves this thread, don't be put off by the regular expressions! They are not the problem, so please stay and read.

OK, this query has got my head spinning. I am basically creating a query that goes through each product in a table to update the stock for that particular item with that particular size (i.e. I am talking about shoes - different models and each model has different sizes (uk kids 12 -> uk 11).

With each shoe it does (or is meant to do) the following:
1. The PHP script that runs the query is looping through every size outside of the query
2. So for each of these sizes it checks to see whether the product it is currently on matches the size it is on
3. When it finds the size it is on, it then deducts the correct number of units from the stock table
4. The final WHERE clause makes sure this subquery inside the UPDATE only happens when the StockUpdated field of the Product table equals 0 (in other words, the stock hasn't been counted before)

Basically what I need to do, is first to make sure what I currently have got does the above correctly but also I need the query to UPDATE the StockUpdated field to 1 only when it has been updated successfully. How could I do this? Unfortunately I cannot just add an extra update entry to the end of the query as this would update the StockUpdated field regardless of whether it has been properly counted or not.

Here is the query I have so far (with a little simple PHP around it doing the loop):

PHP

$shoesizes = array(1 => 'ukk12','ukk13','uk1','uk2','uk3','uk4','uk5','uk6','uk7','uk8','uk9','uk10','uk11');
    $numshoesizes = count($shoesizes);

    for($i = 1; $i < $numshoesizes; $i++) {
        $stockupdate = "
        UPDATE heelys_stock,items_ordered SET heelys_stock.size_".$shoesizes[$i]." =
            (SELECT
                CASE
                WHEN SUBSTRING_INDEX(items_ordered.Product,',',-1) REGEXP '( )?( )?(Kids)?( )?( )?(UK)?( )?( )?(Kids)?( )?( )?[^0-9]12( )?(' -- if UK Kids 12

        , items_ordered.StockUpdated = 1" // at the moment this last update of the items_ordered table happens to every record!!! even if the other part of query fails


        // update stock for size $i
        mysql_query($stockupdate);
    }

Hope someone can see how I can do this? I've been working on this query for 2 or 3 hours now and I've been making reasonable progress but now I am really stumped.

Update Replication, Force Update
Recently an error in the db on my master caused the slave to fail. I noticed this after a few days when I looked at the status and it said "Slave_SQL_Running: No". After looking further I saw what the error was on the master.

What is the best method of re-synching the databases?

Is there a command to force a re-replication or synch of the dbs? Would you delete the slave's db and update over? In this case, is there a command to pull the data down from the master?

Unable To Update - Have Update Priveledge
I've been granded update priveledge to tables in a few databases on our server:

Select_priv ,Insert_priv, Update_priv, Delete_priv, Create_priv, Drop_priv, References_priv, Index_priv, Alter_priv, Create_tmp_table_priv, and Lock_tables_priv are all set to 'Y' for a selected database.

I can connnect and read the data and data definitions just fine. I cannot insert, update, delete, create, or alter any table in this database.

Our admin worked for a couple of hours yesterday trying to resolve the issue, but no joy. I've googled for this problem and the most relavent posts I've found were problems related with users not being able to connect. I can connect and I can read, I just can't do any of the other priviledges.

PHP MySQL Update Qry
what im going for is to have a list of things on a html form and there will be several items in the list, each having their own text box that you can insert the number of things of that item you want.. for example..

Item 1 Here ----qnty?
Item 2 Here ----qnty?
Item 3 Here ----qnty?

I already have the form/list being populated from a DB thats not a problem however when this form is submitted I need some code to grab how many of each item has been requested and put it into the corrosponding row in the DB.

For example...

Item 1 Here ----3
Item 2 Here ----1
Item 3 Here ----7

This code would add the number 3 to 'number' for item one, 1 to 'number' for item 2 and 7 to 'number' in item 3.

I know how to do this with one row but when I have more than three rows I do not know how to make the query insert all of them and im terrible with arrays so I have failed terribly at any attempts so far.

MySQL 3.23.54 + Update
i have 2 table :tbl1 and tbl2

i need to make an update on tbl1 based from tbl2 records.

Ex:
update tbl1, tbl2 set tbl1.conf='1' where tbl2.name='AD' and tbl2.date=tbl1.date;

mysql: MySQL 3.23.54

i see this kind of query works on mysql 4.0.2
How i can do this with my version?
I also tried with left joins ...but...noways!

Any ideas?

MySQL Update On Mac
What is the best program to work in to update/add/delete data on a mac? MySQL query? phpmyadmin? dreamweaver? or any other?

Update MySQL
i'm currently running 5.0.27-standard since that's the only version Cpanel allows me to update to through it's interface.

but there is a bug in that version which doesn't let me start MySQL using "service mysql start",I've already found the fixes for it all over google, but none of them have worked.

so I was thinking about just manually upgrading it to the latest version, (5.0.45 i believe?) anyway, i have 2 questions.

is there is downside to doing this? i mean, why else would cpanel only offer to upgrade to 5.0?

Mysql Update
i want to update every row in the mysql table that
matches a part of each row in it.

ie.

for example if a table contains the following rows :

Pid: 21577
PPid: 21174
Uid: 501
Gid: 501

i want to change the first row to

Pid: 30209

similarly for any row.

Mysql Update From A GUI
I have problems finding a way to warn a user that
another user intends soon to update the same specific row.
Let me explain.

User 1 get to a JSP "update customer record" page.
- The page does a read of the existing record and
loads it into the gui fields for edit.

while he is doing is editing ... User 2 wants to update the same
"update customer record" page and attemp to load the same record in.
What mecanism can I use to stop him being able
to load the same record and warn him someone else is
updating that record.

It seems trivial but so far I don't know of a lock to stop
me reading a specific record. I must be missing something.

MySQL UPDATE
I need some help to make a query work. I want to update several databases at once.

I want to update the field languages_id = 4 to languages_id = 1 in categories_description, languages, products_descripion and some more.

This didnt work:

UPDATE `categories_description`, `languages`, `products_descripion` SET language_id =
1 WHERE language_id = 4;

MySQL Update
I have a mysql database table with two fields: "key" and "value". I have created a form which lists every key with a text field with the value.
I want to update the values for each key when the form is submitted.
So I'm guessing I need some kind of loop to go through each key and update the value of each.Havn't done this before so would appriciate a bit of script to get the Update done all by one form (instead of updating each key separately).

SET forum_posts_text.post_subject = 'test test test'
WHERE forum_topics.topic_first_post_id = forum_posts_text.post_id
AND forum_topics.topic_id = 1234

gives me the following error:

"You have an error in your SQL syntax near ' forum_posts_text SET
forum_posts_text.post_subject = 'test test test' WHERE forum_top'"

Why is that? I simply can't see it

Mysql - Problems After Update
after the hositng company updated from mysql 3.1 to 4.1.19 the shop a friend of me is working with shows some strange errors. the output in the shop backend is very weird.

in the DB-Table is Grissini but the output in the backend is ni.si.Gris

i checked the fields in the tables. sometimes varchar brings a proper result, sometimes not. sometimes "text" is ok, sometimes not...

could this problem relate to the update? where can i see, wich "functions" has changed from 3.1 to 4.1.19?

btw: in the frontend everything seems to be okey. the shop is running with no problems. aaah... shop-system is CaupoShop with NiceAdmin as backend.

MySQL Update Using Recordsets In ASP
I am using straight ASP (not ASP.NET) to access a MySQL v 4.1 database. It is just about the most simple procedure possible ... a form takes in some values and then the ASP script updates a MySQL table with the values. I am using a recordset approach (AddNew/Update) because some of the fields have apostrophes which prevented me from building the INSERT statement.

When I insert my record, the Error object returns a value of 13 with no accompanying error description. The value is successfully inserted into my table.

Where do I find a list of the SQL error codes relating to data manipulation (not syntax errors but database errors from INSERT/UPDATE functions)? I have found pages on this site which reference server and client error codes, but they appear to be more like stored procedure errors and none match what I've received.

Update A MySQL Recordset Through ADO?
How do I force an update to a MySQL recordset through ADO on an open form?

recordset.update does not appear to be working for me. Here is why:

I am using MS Access to build forms and ADO to populate the controls on that form.

I want a user to be able to edit data on a form, move to a new record and then move back again in order to find the record has been updated without having to close down the form.

If I set the ADO connection object to "currentproject.connection" (with linked tables) everything works fine. However, it is when I change the connection object to a full MySQL connection string that I cannot seem to dynamically update the database through a form.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Mysql Update Notification
Where should I look to find information about
having clients notified when a table/record is
updated?

I have a situation where multiple clients will each
have an open database connection, and I would
like for them to be notified when the database is
modified by a member of the group.

Something like a trigger that informs all clients
that a new record has been added for example.

Update Syntax For Mysql
I would like to request for your expertise. I have here an update statement which updates the table1 columns(not all columns) from the values in table2. Table1 has 20 records and Table2 has only 14 records. Like I said, I want to update the 14 records in table1 from the 14 records in table2.

here is my update statement:

Mysql 4.1 Win2000 SP3, UPDATE
i have mysql 4.1 with win2000 SP3, i know that it is only an
alpha and i don't know if someone else has already posted this
problem: when i execute this sql:

UPDATE tableX SET fieldX=valueX
WHERE id IN (SELECT tX.id FROM tableX AS tX WHERE tX.fieldY=valueY AND
filedZ=valueZ);

(note that tableX and tableX are the same tables)

i have this error:

"You can't specify target table 'tableX' for update in FROM clause"
while the same sql in access2000 works without problem.

do i have to use another syntax or is it a bug?

Do Update With IF Condition... In MySQL
Example:

In MYTABLE I have three columns, like this:
ID(INT), PUBLISH(ENUM(Y,N)), PASSWORD(VARCHAR(10))

This is what I want to do:
UPDATE the tablerow with id=333, SET publish='Y' IF password='xxx'

I was trying out the MySQL-expression "IF(expr1,expr2,expr3)" but this
really doesn't do it!

It could work if it was possible to set a SELECT statement in expr1,
returning NULL or EmptyString. Then if NULL DO(execute) expr2 ELSE
DO(execute) expr3

Like this: IF(SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE id=333 AND
PASSWORD='xxx',UPDATE mytable SET publish='N' WHERE id=333, UPDATE
mytable SET publish='Y' WHERE id=333 )

MySQL Update Notifier
Im looking for a desktop notifier (e.g. gmail, blog notifiers etc) which can login to a remote mysql database and check for an update.
Has anyone seen such a thing? I will probably end up doing it with a simple webapp, but would be much better to have a desktop app.

Mysql Update Syntax
I am using mysql Ver 11.18 Distrib 3.23.58, for redhat-linux-gnu (i386)
I have problem with the following syntax:

Update t1, t2
set t1.id = t2.id where t1.name = t2.tname OR t1.code = t2.tcode;

I am trying to update the value of id in t1 using t2 attributes where the conditions fit in.

MySQL/PHP - SQL UPDATE Statement
I am trying to update one field in my table in MySQL. I cannot get this field to update. Can someone possibly tell me what is wrong with my SQL statement?

$SQL="UPDATE umcritsurv SET IQ_Use_Q9='$IQ_Use_Q9' WHERE fldAuto='54'";

MySQL Update Speed With 10K+ Of Rows
I Have table called `users` which have 10K+ rows. Each user have a fields called `gold` and `level`. Now each user should get "pow(1.25, level)*100" gold per/hour and it should divide so that users will get 1 gold per time unit.

example: user level is 7 and he should get 1.25^7 * 100 gold = 476 gold per hour (1 gold every 7.5 seconds). Now I have a problem. I can't update all users at once every second because it would create too much load for server (mysql load was 100% if I did it). Even if I would do this update in every 7 seconds, it will be too much load for the server.

maybe we can determine user gold amount so: user gold = user gold + (seconds_after_last_update/3600); and do update every prime hour? but what happens the when user wants to spend this gold?

My mysql-updateing daemon is running in infinite loop doing 1 action every second.
