Question

CREATE TRIGGER event_house_dealed AFTER UPDATE ON house FOR EACH ROW 
BEGIN
DECLARE finished INT;
IF NEW.isdeal = 1 THEN
    SET finished = 1;
END IF;
END;

The MySQL server keep saying

SQL Error (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 ‘IF NEW.isdeal = 1 THEN SET
finished = 1’ at line 1

Thanks.

Answer 1

You need to change delimiter before defining trigger

DELIMITER ||
CREATE TRIGGER event_house_dealed AFTER UPDATE ON house FOR EACH ROW 
BEGIN
DECLARE finished INT;
IF NEW.isdeal = 1 THEN
    SET finished = 1;
END IF;
END||

Then of course change the delimiter back to ;

DELIMITER ;

Same goes for declaring functions and stored procedures
