Question

I have servlet –

@WebServlet("/servlet123")
public class servlet123 extends HttpServlet {


    protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request,
            HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
                String usrID = "111" ; 
            String strAllAccocuntsSQL = "SELECT * (FROM account, account_person) "
                    + "WHERE (account.accountNum = account_person.accountNum"
                    + "AND account_person.personID=? )ORDER BY account.accountNum;";
            PreparedStatement prepareSQL = connection
                    .prepareStatement(strAllAccocuntsSQL);
                        prepareSQL.setString(1, usrID);   
            ResultSet resultWithAccounts = prepareSQL.executeQuery();
    }

}

I check all about connection and it was OK .

When it reach to the line ResultSet resultWithAccounts = prepareSQL.executeQuery(); it throws exception –

 com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLSyntaxErrorException: 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 'account_person.personID='111' )ORDER BY account.accountNum' at line 1

    at com.mysql.jdbc.PreparedStatement.executeQuery(PreparedStatement.java:2318)

The SQL code of the 2 above tables is –

CREATE TABLE  `account_person` (
 `accountNum` INT( 11 ) NOT NULL ,
 `personID` TEXT NOT NULL
)

AND

CREATE TABLE  `account` (
 `accountNum` INT( 11 ) NOT NULL ,
 `dateCreated` DATE NOT NULL ,
 `accountName` TEXT,
 `description` TEXT,
 `statusAccount` TEXT,
 `sumOfMoney` INT( 11 ) NOT NULL DEFAULT  '0'
)

What wrong in the SQL statement in prepareSQL ?

Answer 1

I suspect:

+ "WHERE (account.accountNum = account_person.accountNum"
+ "AND account_person.personID=? )ORDER BY account.account

means you’re concatenating accountNum and AND without an intermediate space. That ties in with the error message.
