IMO, you are better off to use a scripting language with built-in database support, like PERL or PHP.
I do a lot of database programming (MySQL) and use PHP (and never use KSH or other shell scripts for SQL DB support).

LEARN ABOUT PHP
mysql_error
MYSQL_ERROR(3) 1 MYSQL_ERROR(3)
mysql_error - Returns the text of the error message from previous MySQL operation
SYNOPSIS
Warning
This extension is deprecated as of PHP 5.5.0, and will be removed in the future. Instead, the MySQLi or PDO_MySQL extension should
be used. See also MySQL: choosing an API guide and related FAQ for more information. Alternatives to this function include:
omysqli_error(3)
o PDO::errorInfo
string mysql_error ([resource $link_identifier = NULL])
DESCRIPTION
Returns the error text from the last MySQL function. Errors coming back from the MySQL database backend no longer issue warnings. Instead,
use mysql_error(3) to retrieve the error text. Note that this function only returns the error text from the most recently executed MySQL
function (not including mysql_error(3) and mysql_errno(3)), so if you want to use it, make sure you check the value before calling another
MySQL function.
o $
link_identifier -The MySQL connection. If the link identifier is not specified, the last link opened by mysql_connect(3) is
assumed. If no such link is found, it will try to create one as if mysql_connect(3) was called with no arguments. If no connection
is found or established, an E_WARNING level error is generated.
Returns the error text from the last MySQL function, or '' (empty string) if no error occurred.
Example #1
mysql_error(3) example
<?php
$link = mysql_connect("localhost", "mysql_user", "mysql_password");
mysql_select_db("nonexistentdb", $link);
echo mysql_errno($link) . ": " . mysql_error($link). "
";
mysql_select_db("kossu", $link);
mysql_query("SELECT * FROM nonexistenttable", $link);
echo mysql_errno($link) . ": " . mysql_error($link) . "
";
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
1049: Unknown database 'nonexistentdb'
1146: Table 'kossu.nonexistenttable' doesn't exist
mysql_errno(3), MySQL error codes.
