WL#1030: Change error message
Affects: Benchmarks-3.0
—
Status: Un-Assigned
In a recent version, the syntax error message was changed from something a la
Syntax error near 'CASE postaladdressformat
Today, the message is
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 'CASE
postaladdressformat
This format is rather annoying -- the important parts ("Syntax error" and
"near...") are split by a (to many) meaningless sentence, making it harder to
read.
Suggested fix: Drop the manual-version wording or change the format of the
message to:
You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'CASE
postaladdressformat'. Check the manual that corresponds to
your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use.
