This is probably a really obvious mistake, but I have been trying a number of things and I do not seem to be able to get the right answer.
From R, I try to execute the following DELETE SQL statement on a PostgreSQL database hosted by Digital Ocean.
sql <- "DELETE FROM tablename WHERE referenceNo IN (380,376,344,345)"
conn %>% dbExecute(sql)
I get the following error and I am unable to find the correct syntax.
Error: Failed to prepare query: ERROR: column "referenceno" does not exist
LINE 1: DELETE FROM tablename WHERE referenceNo IN (380,37...
^
HINT: Perhaps you meant to reference the column "tablename.referenceNo".
I have tried to follow the hint and tried SQL syntax like:
sql <- "DELETE FROM tablename WHERE tablename.referenceNo IN (380,376,344,345)"
Unfortunately, I get the same error message.
i already slove a problem like your's by using : "columns" and not columns,
DELETE FROM tablename WHERE "referenceNo" IN (380,376,344,345)

I´ve read several discussions and websites about creating a SQL query to create a table by selecting data from other table, but none of them solved my issue. I don´t know what else to do.
I am working on a SQL script to run a sequence of selects and creates do resume some data. I´ve been using this SQL queries on a SaS server using DB2 data. Now I need to migrate to Dbeaver to using other sources.
I just want to create a table by selecting some columns and data from other table, for this simple example :
"CREATE TABLE DB2XXXX.PaidResume AS
(SELECT HistoricalPaid.AccountNumber AS CONTA
FROM DB2XXX.HistPaid HistoricalPaid
WHERE HistoricalPaid.AccountNumber = 'XXXXX');
All I got it this error
Error occurred during SQL query execution
SQL Error [42601]: ILLEGAL SYMBOL "<END-OF-STATEMENT>". SOME SYMBOLS THAT MIGHT BE LEGAL ARE:. SQLCODE=-104, SQLSTATE=42601, DRIVER=4.19.26
If I just exclude the "CREATE TABLE DB2XXXX.PaidResume AS" and run the select only, it works.
You must include WITH DATA or WITH NO DATA at the end of the SQL statement. For example:
create table u as (select a from t) with data;
See example at db<>fiddle.
I am trying to update a table in pgadmin 3 (postgres 9.4) called: assay.Luminex.Luminex_GT_shared.Analyte
I kept getting the error:
ERROR: improper qualified name (too many dotted names):
assay.luminex.luminex_gt_shared.analyte
I have tested backquotes and brackets to no avail, keep getting syntax errors:
SELECT * FROM `assay.Luminex.Luminex_GT_shared.Analyte`;
SELECT * FROM [assay.Luminex.Luminex_GT_shared.Analyte];
I am a newb to SQL, I am just trying to make a simple update to a table and getting stuck on this.
As documented in the manual in SQL, non-standard identifiers have to be quoted with double quotes:
SELECT *
FROM "assay.Luminex.Luminex_GT_shared.Analyte";
But you should really avoid names like that.
Trying to execute the statement
select *
from RU_VARIANCE_HISTORY
but I'm getting the error
DB2 SQL Error: SQLCODE=-901, SQLSTATE=58004,
SQLERRMC=Invalid collation ID, DRIVER=4.21.29
Tried searching but unable to find the solution.
This can happen if DB2 thinks the statement is really too long or too short. Try adding a semicolon to the end of your statement - this worked for me with the same error.
I've made a very simple database and am trying
select * from klant;
I've verified the table exists, and last week was able to see data in it. Today however I keep getting
Statement failed, SQLSTATE = 42S02
Dynamic SQL Error
-SQL error code = -204
-Table unknown
-KLANT
-At line 1, column 15
The same select query in flameRobin gives the following error:
Error: *** IBPP::SQLException ***
Context: Database::Statistics
Message: isc_database_info failed
SQL Message : -902
can't format message 13:98 -- message file C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\firebird.msg not found
Engine Code : 335544727
Engine Message :
Error writing data to the connection.
I have copied the firebird.msg to the system32 folder so it should be able to find it there.
Any pointers toward the solution would be greatly appreciated. Similar question all seem to point toward issues with transactions, I can't see that being the problem here.
Edit:
I'm using the included ISQL tool from firebird and start the session by connecting to the database that includes my table. Same for flamerobin, first connect to database, I can see the table that i want to select from but it gives this error.
Edit2:
Finally reinstalled Firebird making sure I gave it admin right, which I think it had before, but wasn't sure about. This seems to have fixed it.
I am trying following query in MS Access 2010 database:
Query:
SELECT ID, Title, Priority, Workflow_Instance_Step_ID:ID
FROM Task
Error:
Error Source: Microsoft Office Access Database Engine
Error Message: Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'Workflow_Instance_Step_ID:ID'
I know that field "Workflow_Instance_Step_ID:ID" is giving error as it has ':' operator, but I cant change it as it it coming from share point list.
I have tried '[Workflow_Instance_Step_ID:ID]' but still its giving an error.
Please give me your suggestion on the same.
I am unable to recreate your issue, at least with a native Access table in Access 2010. I created a table named [baz] with a single text field named [foo:bar]
foo:bar
-------
this
is
a
test
and the query
SELECT [foo:bar] FROM baz;
works fine, so a field name containing a colon character does not seem to cause problems for Access SQL as such.
An ODBC linked table to a SQL Server table with the same structure does not cause problems either.
In both cases the queries were run from within Access 2010 itself.
So we might be in diagnosis mode, so lets try
SELECT * FROM Task
and then look at the FieldNames that come back.
