MariaDB Error 1323: Invalid Cursor SELECT Syntax

📦 MariaDB
📋

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 causes
⚠️
Incorrect 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.
