Question

I have a Mysql insert query. I need to run the query everyday, at 11:00 AM.

How do I execute a query on a fixed time in MySQL?
In MS-SQL i can easily do it by SQL Server agent job scheduler. So, is there any way to run a predefined schedule query in My-SQL? My MySQL version is: 5.5.12.

Answer 1

You can use the event scheduler to achieve the above purpose in Mysql.

To create an event, you can use the create event statement. Here is an explanation with example.

Something like this:

CREATE EVENT e_totals
->     ON SCHEDULE AT '2006-02-10 23:59:00'
->     DO INSERT INTO test.totals VALUES (NOW());
