#3359 closed defect (fixed)

Tickets tags don't work when using MySQL 4.x

Reported by: nigelsim Owned by: Steffen Hoffmann
Priority: normal Component: TagsPlugin
Severity: normal Keywords: MySQL SQL syntax compatibility
Cc: Ryan J Ollos, Michael Renzmann Trac Release: 0.10

Description

If you try to enable the tickets tags module, while using MySQL 4.x you get the following error:

ProgrammingError: (1064, "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 'fields FROM ticket WHERE status != 'closed') s WHERE fields != '' ORDER BY id' at line 1")

 File "/opt/trac-0.11/src/tractags/tags/0.6/tractags/ticket.py", line 66, in  get_tagged_resources  

The issue is that this SQL stanza

SELECT id, %s, %s AS fields FROM ticket%s

fails, because MySQL seems to think fields is a keyword. On my site I renamed fields to fieldss. Another option is using backticks ` around the field name, but I'm not sure this is compatible with other databases.

Same problem here, I had to change the name into another one so there is no conflict with mysql.

This changed inside plugin sources...

Seems related #4277.

Would like to fix as many real bugs as possible for next stable release.

Anyone ready for testing a patch so that I don't need to do a MySQL setup here on my own?

While I'm investigating #4277 you could already check this patch (essentially the suggested field group alias rename plus some SQL statement re-formatting):

I noticed, that just quoting strings falsely misinterpreted as keywords would solve the problem as well. Comments?

And that 'fields' isn't on the list of any relevant database system - strange.

comment:6 Changed 12 years ago by Steffen Hoffmann

(In [10774]) TagsPlugin: Use a different alias name for (standard ticket) fields, refs #3359.

Prevent misinterpretation as keyword, that has been reported for MySQL.

Would be nice to have a success report here, because I'm unable to test against MySQL yet.

comment:8 Changed 10 years ago by Steffen Hoffmann

Counting in myself here, but my deployment has been on MySQL 5, so still not a real reference.
