Question

Here is my code:

var qryStr = "
            UPDATE templates_email 
            SET title = :title, test_emails = :testEmail, body = :body
            WHERE id = :templateID";

q = New Query();
q.setSQL(qryStr);
q.addParam(name="title", value="#arguments.title#", cfsqltype="cf_sql_char");
q.addParam(name="body", value="#arguments.templateContent#", cfsqltype="cf_sql_char");
q.addParam(name="testEmail", value="#arguments.test_emails#", cfsqltype="cf_sql_char");
q.addParam(name="templateID", value="#arguments.id#", cfsqltype="cf_sql_integer");

return q.execute().getResult();

This is the error:

Parameter ‘body WHERE’ not found in the list of parameters specified

SQL: UPDATE templates_email SET title = :title, test_emails = :testEmail, body = :body WHERE id = :templateID

The error occurred in C:\ColdFusion9\CustomTags\com\adobe\coldfusion\query.cfc: line 108

I can only assume I have done something wrong with the way my SQL is structured with the parameters, but can’t work out what it is. Can anyone see what I am doing wrong here?

The parser for getting the params doesn’t tokenize on return values, only on whitespace (which is really annoying). Try the following:

var qryStr = "
    UPDATE templates_email 
    SET title = ( :title ), test_emails = ( :testEmail ), body = ( :body )
    WHERE ( id = :templateID )
";

The ( and ) should remove any issue with where the parser not being able to recognise where the :params stop and start.
