Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users Isql and If Exist syntax error in UNIX script
# 8  
Old 10-10-2018
I tried to execute only the if exist statement to know if it throws error in starting itself.
Example:
Code:
if exists(select 1 from sysobjects where name = 'sample_table' and type = 'U')
begin
   select 'hi'
end

I get the error as below:
Code:
Error starting at line : 4 in command -
if exists(select 1 from sysobjects where name = 'mbs_pers_del_dp_sample' and type = 'U' )
Error report -
SQL Error: Incorrect syntax near ')'.
Error starting at line : 5 in command -
begin
   select 'hi'
  end
Error report -
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'begin'.

ERROR::PASS1(7stap)													       ERROR::PASS1(7stap)

NAME
error::pass1 - systemtap pass-1 errors DESCRIPTION
Errors that occur during pass 1 (parsing) usually mean a basic syntax error of some sort occurred in the systemtap script. There are sev- eral classes of problems possible: plain syntax error The systemtap script parser detects a large variety of errors, such as missing operands, bad punctuation. It tries to list what kinds of tokens it was expecting to see, and will show the region of the source code with the problem. Please review the stap(1) man page and/or the tutorial, to correct the script's syntax. grammar ambiguities There is at least one known ambiguity in the systemtap grammar. It relates to the optionality of ; (semicolon) separators between statements, and the ++ and -- increment/decrement operators. If the parser indicates an error, consider adding some explicit ; sep- arators between nearby statements and try again. missing command line arguments A systemtap script that uses the $N and @N constructs for substituting in command-line options may fail if not enough options were given on the stap command line. compatibility changes Some versions of systemtap have changed the language incompatibly, for example by adding the try/catch keywords for exception han- dling. In such cases, rerun systemtap with the --compatibility=VERSION option, substituting the last systemtap version where your script was known to work. You may also check the release-history NEWS file for compatibility changes. GATHERING MORE INFORMATION
Increasing the verbosity of pass-1 with an option such as --vp 1 can help pinpoint the problem. SEE ALSO
