I am trying to use nested sql in postgresql tPostgresqlRow_1.
But I receive an error.
The following sql runs okay if I run it in PgAdmin.
But in Talend I receive an error.
I am getting the max date from one table and updating the column in another table.
update "STG_magento_de"."configuration_table"
set created_at=(select MAX(created_at) from "STG_magento_de"."sales_flat_order_test")
where table_name='sales_flat_order_test'
The tPostgresqlRow component expects a Java string containing the SQL statement.
The most likely problem is that you have unescaped quotes in the statement. That works fine in pgAdmin because it is valid. To pass the same statement from Talend, you'll have to escape all the quotes in the statement itself. Alternatively, you could try removing the double quotes from the SQL statement.
Remember to enclose the whole thing in quotes, so that it is a proper Java string.
create or replace function eliminarComillas (text) returns text AS $$
select replace(replace(replace($1,'**\"**','"'),'‘','‘'),'’','’');
$$ language sql;"
Following sql with escape quotes worked.
"update \"STG_magento_de\".\"configuration_table\"
set created_at=(select MAX(created_at) from \"STG_magento_de\".\"sales_flat_order_test\")
where table_name='sales_flat_order_test'"

I am trying to replace single quote characters in an inline SQL statement.
In SSMS:
SELECT REPLACE('test''test', '''', '')
Result: testtest
In Powerbuilder:
SELECT REPLACE(fieldname, '''', '')
INTO :ls_string
FROM tablename;
Result: 'Incorrect syntax near ''.
Basically, Powerbuilder complains about syntax because it doesn't know what to do with SQL's escape character. If I use Powerbuilder's escape character instead ('~'' versus '''' as the second argument for REPLACE), SQL Server complains about open quotes.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
You probably will have to either put the statement in a datawindow object (using the SQL quote escape method) which you use in the application as a datawindow or datastore OR do the SQL in a function or stored proc. If you go the function route you could call it in an imbedded SQL statement within Powerscript like your examples.
Something like
SELECT ufReplaceTwoQuotes INTO :ls FROM myTable USING SQLCA;
A third option would be to retrieve your data then do the replace within Powerscript (but then you have to wrestle with escaping the single quote within PowerBuilder).
Inside a procedure I have a variable that contains SQL for example like this:
examplesql:= 'SELECT 'asd';';
Where the SQL itself is enclosed with single '' and a value further inside the SQL is also enclosed with single ''. I tried using double "" marks instead but it didnt work. Any suggestions how to accomplish this in Netezza ?
The variable examplesql is later called with EXECUTE IMMIDIATE
This should be the same as (almost) every other DBMS, you need to double the single quotes within the string:
examplesql:= 'SELECT ''O''''Hara';
I am making a shell script where I am reading inputs from one file. File contains data
123
1234
121
I am reading the inputs from this file using while read line do condition and putting all inputs in SQL statements.Now in my shell script i am going on SQL Prompt and running some queries. In one condition, I am using EXECUTE IMMEDIATE STATEMENT in SQL.
as
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'CREATE TABLE BKP_ACDAGENT4 as SELECT * FROM BKP_ACDAGENT WHERE DATASOURCEAGENTID IN ('123','1234','121')';
I want this to be execute, but somehow its not working.
Can anyone help me in executing it?
You need to escape the single quotes which you have used for the predicates in your IN list, that is the single quotes in
WHERE DATASOURCEAGENTID IN ('123','1234','121')';
are causing the issue here. You need to escape the single quotes using two single quotes
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'CREATE TABLE BKP_ACDAGENT4 as SELECT * FROM BKP_ACDAGENT WHERE DATASOURCEAGENTID IN (''123'',''1234'',''121'')';
The above will work on all Oracle version.
If you're one Oracle 10g or above, you can use q keyword
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE q'[CREATE TABLE BKP_ACDAGENT4 as SELECT * FROM BKP_ACDAGENT WHERE DATASOURCEAGENTID IN ('123','1234','121')]';
I am inserting text from a file into a table, few of the lines have words like "you'll" or "don't". When I insert these lines as varchar in my table, I get an error saying - near "ll": syntax error. How do I overcome this?
Your single quote is being considered as the end of your string. Escape the quote that exists within your string to avoid this problem.
You need to escape your SQL statement. If you are using SQL Server, then you can use QUOTENAME to resolve this.
Use two apostrophes within apostrophe-quoted strings to insert the apostrophe:
insert into footable (foo) values('you''ll')
Thank you all for responses, since I was using sqlite3, there are inbuilt string formating functions available with the library, so I was able to use sqlite3_mprintf with %q instead of %s and it took care of single quotes.
I am trying to write an sql query and I am having a problem. When we want to write a query with a where clause to narrow down our results, we can do
... where name = 'John'
(Where name is a column in the table).
Now I am trying to insert a clause like this except the name is "O'Malley". So I thought the query would be
... where name = 'O'Malley'
but this gives me a null pointer exception.
Does anyone know how you could solve this problem?
Thanks for your help in advance.
Your problem is that the single quote in the string "O'Malley" is interpreted by SQL as the string terminator. To escape a single quote, replace it with two single quotes, like this:
where name = 'O''Malley'
Edit: If the string "O'Malley" came from a user input, your code is vulnerable to an SQL injection exploit. To avoid this risk, use a parameterized query.
Use bind variables to avoid thinking about quotation problems.
Bind variables beware of sql injection to.
Depending on the database you could escape the ' I think. Have a look at http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/string-syntax.html
If you use two apostrophes together in you search string SQL will realise that it is part of the string and isn't part of the SQL syntax.
where name = 'O''Malley'
