MySQL Error 1326: Cursor Not Open
Description
This error occurs in MySQL when a database cursor is referenced or operated upon before it has been explicitly opened or after it has been closed. It commonly appears in stored procedures or functions when managing result sets.
Error Message
Cursor is not open
Known Causes
3 known causesCursor Not Explicitly Opened
The `OPEN` statement for the cursor was omitted or not executed before a `FETCH` or other cursor operation was attempted.
Cursor Already Closed or Deallocated
An attempt was made to use a cursor that was previously closed using `CLOSE` or deallocated, making it unavailable for further operations.
Conditional Logic Bypass
The program's conditional flow (e.g., `IF` statements) inadvertently caused the `OPEN` statement to be skipped, leaving the cursor in an unopened state.
