MySQL 查询在本地服务器上工作正常，但在实时中出错

Question

I have just done my site live. Below is the simple query; it works fine on my localhost but not on the live server.

 select * from friends where action='chating'

It gives error "you have to use right syntax near where".

Please help me: why this happening, and how do I solve it?

Answer 1

I guess your mysql version is different on local and live. Please check it.

I am sure it's Mysql5.5 on live in which ACTION is new Reserved Keyword . SO while if you using it as column name then you need to use bacticks(`) around it while using in query.

Try below:

 select * from friends where `action`='chating'
