PostgreSQL Error 03000: Incomplete SQL Statement
Description
The 'sql statement not yet complete' error (03000) indicates that the PostgreSQL server received an SQL query that it considers syntactically unfinished or malformed. This typically occurs when a statement is prematurely terminated, has unmatched delimiters, or is otherwise incomplete according to SQL parsing rules.
Error Message
sql statement not yet complete
Known Causes
4 known causesUnmatched Delimiters
The SQL statement contains unmatched single quotes, double quotes, parentheses, or brackets, confusing the parser about the statement's end.
Missing Statement Terminator
The SQL client or application failed to include the necessary statement terminator, such as a semicolon (;), at the end of the query.
Partial Statement Transmission
Only a portion of the intended SQL statement was transmitted to the PostgreSQL server, often due to user input error or client-side issues.
Complex Syntax Errors
In complex queries, subtle syntax errors can lead the PostgreSQL parser to incorrectly interpret the statement as incomplete.
