Raising Error Conditions with MySQL SIGNAL / RESIGNAL Statements
http://www.mysqltutorial.org/mysql-signal-resignal/
Summary: in this tutorial, you will learn how to use SIGNAL
and RESIGNAL
statements to raise error conditions inside stored procedures.
MySQL SIGNAL statement
You use the SIGNAL
statement to return an error or warning condition to the caller from a stored program e.g., stored procedure, stored function, trigger or event. The SIGNAL
statement provides you with control over which information for returning such as value and messageSQLSTATE
.
The following illustrates syntax of the SIGNAL
statement:
1 2 3 | SIGNAL SQLSTATE | condition_name; SET condition_information_item_name_1 = value_1, condition_information_item_name_1 = value_2, etc; |
Following the SIGNAL
keyword is a SQLSTATE
value or a condition name declared by the DECLARE CONDITION
statement. Notice that the SIGNAL
statement must always specify a SQLSTATE
value or a named condition that defined with an SQLSTATE
value.
To provide the caller with information, you use the SET
clause. If you want to return multiple condition information item names with values, you need to separate each name/value pair by a comma.
The condition_information_item_name
can be MESSAGE_TEXT
, MYSQL_ERRORNO
,CURSOR_NAME
, etc.
The following stored procedure adds an order line item into an existing sales order. It issues an error message if the order number does not exist.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 | DELIMITER $$ CREATE PROCEDURE AddOrderItem( in orderNo int, in productCode varchar(45), in qty int, in price double, in lineNo int ) BEGIN DECLARE C INT; SELECT COUNT(orderNumber) INTO C FROM orders WHERE orderNumber = orderNo; -- check if orderNumber exists IF(C != 1) THEN SIGNAL SQLSTATE ‘45000‘ SET MESSAGE_TEXT = ‘Order No not found in orders table‘; END IF; -- more code below -- ... END |
First, it counts the orders with the input order number that we pass to the stored procedure.
Second, if the number of order is not 1, it raises an error with SQLSTATE 45000
along with an error message saying that order number does not exist in the orders table.
Notice that 45000
is a generic SQLSTATE
value that illustrates an unhandled user-defined exception.
If we call the stored procedure AddOrderItem()
and pass a nonexistent order number, we will get an error message.
1 | CALL AddOrderItem(10,‘S10_1678‘,1,95.7,1); |
MySQL RESIGNAL statement
Besides the SIGNAL
statement, MySQL also provides the RESIGNAL
statement used to raise a warning or error condition.
The RESIGNAL
statement is similar to SIGNAL
statement in term of functionality and syntax, except that:
- You must use the
RESIGNAL
statement within an error or warning handler, otherwise, you will get an error message saying that “RESIGNAL when handler is not active”. Notice that you can useSIGNAL
statement anywhere inside a stored procedure. - You can omit all attributes of the
RESIGNAL
statement, even theSQLSTATE
value.
If you use the RESIGNAL
statement alone, all attributes are the same as the ones passed to the condition handler.
The following stored procedure changes the error message before issuing it to the caller.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 | DELIMITER $$ CREATE PROCEDURE Divide(IN numerator INT, IN denominator INT, OUT result double) BEGIN DECLARE division_by_zero CONDITION FOR SQLSTATE ‘22012‘; DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER FOR division_by_zero RESIGNAL SET MESSAGE_TEXT = ‘Division by zero / Denominator cannot be zero‘; -- IF denominator = 0 THEN SIGNAL division_by_zero; ELSE SET result := numerator / denominator; END IF; END |
Let’s call the Divide()
stored procedure.
1 | CALL Divide(10,0,@result); |
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to raise error conditions inside stored programs usingSIGNAL
and RESIGNAL
statements.
