Imre,

You may have found a stored function bug--the server tries to evaluate the SELECT statement within the IF block when IF condition is false.

Hi,

When I try to run this function, I receive ERROR 1146 (42S02): Table 'gi2.meta' doesn't exist

CREATE FUNCTION get_version()
RETURNS INT UNSIGNED
BEGIN
 DECLARE exist_ TINYINT;
 SELECT COUNT(*) INTO exist_ FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
  WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = 'GI2' AND TABLE_NAME = 'Meta' LIMIT 1;
 IF (0 < exist_) THEN BEGIN
     DECLARE ver_ INT UNSIGNED;
     SELECT SUBSTRING(Version, 14, LENGTH(Version) - 15) INTO ver_
       FROM GI2.Meta LIMIT 1;
     IF (ver_ <= 65) THEN RETURN 5;
     ELSE RETURN 0;
     END IF;
   END;
 END IF;
 RETURN 1;
END;

I can't see why I am receiving this error, as I am checking if the table exists before the select. If this is a limitation in MySQL, any ideas how to circumvent it?

Thanks

Is the table `Meta` or `meta` ? Case sensitivity is very important to most Operating Systems. Try it with all lower case and see what happens.
