Hi all.
I am running into a very frustrating problem trying to created a stored
procedure.
I had originally assumed I was using bad syntax, but even examples copied
and pasted
directly from the manual are giving the same error.
mysql> CREATE DEFINER = 'walton'@'localhost' PROCEDURE account_count()
-> BEGIN
-> SELECT 'Number of accounts:', COUNT(*) FROM mysql.user;
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 '' at line 3
mysql>
This example can be found at:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/create-procedure.html
Google has failed me on this one.
Can anyone advise me as to what I need to do to troubleshoot this? Also if
it is in error in the documentation,
how would I go about notifying someone so it can be corrected?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
