MariaDB Error 1323: Invalid Cursor SELECT Syntax
Description
This error in MariaDB occurs when defining a cursor within a stored procedure or function. It means the `SELECT` statement used to declare the cursor incorrectly contains an `INTO` clause, which is only valid for fetching data into variables, not for the cursor's initial definition.
Error Message
Cursor SELECT must not have INTO
Known Causes
3 known causesIncorrect Cursor Declaration
The `DECLARE CURSOR` statement's `SELECT` clause includes an `INTO` clause, which is syntactically disallowed for defining the cursor's result set.
Misplaced INTO Clause
The `INTO` clause, intended for `FETCH` statements or `SELECT ... INTO` assignments, was mistakenly placed within the `DECLARE CURSOR ... FOR SELECT` statement.
Syntax Misunderstanding
A lack of clarity regarding the specific syntax rules for declaring cursors versus fetching data from them can lead to this incorrect usage.
