MySQLi Update data in a table - mysqli

Please help me out with this. Basically to update an existing table (chem_users) with data using 2 keys UserId & Password (or only 1 primary key is allowed?).
Using MySQLi, what is wrong with this syntax.
$sql = "UPDATE chem_users SET (Prj1, Prj2) VALUES ('{$_POST['kinetics']}',
'{$_POST['thermo']}') WHERE (UserId=JohnKing Password=1234rewq)";
I got this error:
Error saving user data 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 '(Prj1, Prj2) VALUES ('kinetics' at line 1

Try using this syntax:
$sql="UPDATE `chem_users` SET `Prj1`=".$_POST['kinetics'].",`Prj2`=".$_POST['thermo']." WHERE `UserId`='JohnKing' AND `Password`='1234rewq'";
By the way, you shouldn't just concatenate a variable inside a query like you are doing,you should use Prepared Statements.You can learn a little bit about it in this link: http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_mysql_prepared_statements.asp

Sequelize how to use aggregate function on Postgres JSONB column

I have created one table with JSONB column as "data"
And the sample value of that column is
[{field_id:1, value:10},{field_id:2, value:"some string"}]
Now there are multiple rows like this..
What i want ?
I want to use aggregate function on "data" column such that, i should
get
Sum of all value where field_id = 1;
Avg of value where field_id = 1;
I have searched alot on google but not able to find a proper solution.
sometimes it says "Field doesn't exist" and some times it says "from clause missing"
I tried referring like data.value & also data -> value lastly data ->> value
But nothing is working.
Please let me know the solution if any one knows,
Thanks in advance.
Your attributes should be something like this, so you instruct it to run the function on a specific value:
attributes: [
[sequelize.fn('sum', sequelize.literal("data->>'value'")), 'json_sum'],
[sequelize.fn('avg', sequelize.literal("data->>'value'")), 'json_avg']
]
Then in WHERE, you reference field_id in a similar way, using literal():
where: sequelize.literal("data->>'field_id' = 1")
Your example also included a string for the value of "value" which of course won't work. But if the basic Sequelize setup works on a good set of data, you can enhance the WHERE clause to test for numeric "value" data, there are good examples here: Postgres query to check a string is a number
Hopefully this gets you close. In my experience with Sequelize + Postgres, it helps to run the program in such a way that you see what queries it creates, like in a terminal where the output is streaming. On the way to a working statement, you'll either create objects which Sequelize doesn't like, or Sequelize will create bad queries which Postgres doesn't like. If the query looks close, take it into pgAdmin for further work, then try to reproduce your adjustments in Sequelize. Good luck!

replacing characters in a CLOB column (db2)

I have a CLOB(2000000) field in a db2 (v10) database, and I would like to run a simple UPDATE query on it to replace each occurances of "foo" to "baaz".
Since the contents of the field is more then 32k, I get the following error:
"{some char data from field}" is too long.. SQLCODE=-433, SQLSTATE=22001
How can I replace the values?
UPDATE:
The query was the following (changed UPDATE into SELECT for easier testing):
SELECT REPLACE(my_clob_column, 'foo', 'baaz') FROM my_table WHERE id = 10726
UPDATE 2
As mustaccio pointed out, REPLACE does not work on CLOB fields (or at least not without doing a cast to VARCHAR on the data entered - which in my case is not possible since the size of the data is more than 32k) - the question is about finding an alternative way to acchive the REPLACE functionallity for CLOB fields.
Thanks,
krisy
Finally, since I have found no way to this by an SQL query, I ended up exporting the table, editing its lob content in Notepad++, and importing the table back again.
Not sure if this applies to your case: There are 2 different REPLACE functions offered by DB2, SYSIBM.REPLACE and SYSFUN.REPLACE. The version of REPLACE in SYSFUN accepts CLOBs and supports values up to 1 MByte. In case your values are longer than you would need to write your own (SQL-based?) function.
BTW: You can check function resolution by executing "values(current path)"

What is the best way to decipher a DB2 -302 error from Java?

I am getting this error running an insert query for a single record:
DB2 SQL Error: SQLCODE=-302, SQLSTATE=22001, SQLERRMC=null,
DRIVER=3.62.56
Exception: org.springframework.dao.DataIntegrityViolationException
I looked this up on IBM's help site, but there being no parameter index, I am stuck. The SQL state also seems to specify it is other than a value being too big.
The format of the query is INSERT INTO [[TABLE_NAME]] VALUES (?,?,?,...) using Spring's JdbcTemplate.update(String sql, Object... params).
This being for work, I cannot post schema nor query. I am looking for general advice into debugging this issue. I already know using Arrays.toString(Object[]) does not print out in SQL format.
To find the explanation for SQLCODE -302 in the manual you need to search for SQL0302N (the general rule for DB2 SQLCODE values is this: "SQL" plus four digits, padded if necessary with zeros on the left, plus "N" for "negative" because -302 is a negative number).
If you have the DB2 command line processor installed, you can also use it to look up error codes:
db2 ? sql302
which would produce something like this:
SQL0302N The value of a host variable in the EXECUTE or OPEN
statement
is out of range for its corresponding use.
Explanation:
The value of an input host variable was found to be out of range for
its use in the SELECT, VALUES, or prepared statement.
In other words, one of the bind variables in your INSERT is too large for the target column. You'll need to compare the table column definitions with the actual values you're trying to insert.
In addition to mustaccio's answer you can also get the info from sql with SYSPROC.SQLERRM. Example:
values SYSPROC.SQLERRM ('SQL302', '', '', 'en_US', 0)
SQL0302N The value of a host variable in the EXECUTE or OPEN statement
is out of range for its corresponding use.

SQL hashbytes update statement not as expected

I'm trying to update a column on SQL server r2 using the hashbytes command. Here's the simplified version of the command:
COMMAND: "UPDATE [tbl] SET [checksum] = HASHBYTES('MD5',[field1])"
The problem is that, it writes strange characters like this to all the fields:
"˜Iý¸¶C"KéS©c"
However, if I do a select (using the same fields):
select HASHBYTES('MD5',[field1]) from [tbl];
It returns a correct string:
0x9849FDB80C17B64322DA094BE963A963
Anyone know why it would do this. I've tried on a test database and the update command works as expected. But it doesn't work on our production server.
The reason you are getting this is because HASHBYTES returns a binary data type, and this is not text.
Using the build in function fn_varbintohexstr you can convert the binary data into text, as follows:
UPDATE [tbl] SET [checksum] = master.dbo.fn_varbintohexstr(HASHBYTES('MD5',[field1]))

db2 SQLCODE=-243, SQLSTATE=36001 ERROR

I am using the DB2Driver in my code like
Class.forName("com.ibm.db2.jcc.DB2Driver");
and I am getting the result set in my java code which is scroll sensitive. my sql query look like this select distinct day , month , year from XXX . here table XXX is read only for the user which I am using ... so it is giving the following error
com.ibm.db2.jcc.a.SqlException: DB2 SQL Error: SQLCODE=-243, SQLSTATE=36001, SQLERRMC=SQL_CURSH200C3, DRIVER=3.51.90 .. I know this is the problem of read only .. but when i try to execute the same query in db2 control center it is working
please help me out in this
PubLib is your friend :-)
SQL0243NSENSITIVE cursor <cursor-name> cannot be defined for the specified SELECT statement.
Explanation:
Cursor <cursor-name> is defined as SENSITIVE, but the content of the SELECT statement requires DB2 to build a temporary result table of the cursor, and DB2 cannot guarantee that changes made outside this cursor will be visible. This situation occurs when the content of the query makes the result table read-only. For example, if the query includes a join, the result table is read-only. In these cases, the cursor must be defined as INSENSITIVE or ASENSITIVE.
The statement cannot be processed.
User response:
Either change the content of the query to yield a result table that is not read-only, or change the type of the cursor to INSENSITIVE or ASENSITIVE.
If you can't change the cursor type, look in to the use of materialised queriey tables. These are like views but also provide temporary backing storage for the data so that it's not forced read-only by the query type.
Whether that will help in situations where you've forced the user to be read only, I'm not entirely sure but you may be able to have different permission on the materialised data and real data (unfortunately, I haven't done a lot of work with these, certainly none where permissions were locked down to read-only level).
