MySQL Error Code: 1064. You have an error in your SQL syntax

问题

Really, what could possibly be wrong?! It does not get any more simple - the entire query:

line 1: use foo
line 2: 
line 3: select * from test_table_1;

Error Code:

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 'select * from test_table_1' at line 3 0.002 sec

The line numbers are for reference only - there not actually in the query window.

I'm trying to run this extremely simple query in MySQLWorkbench and it's throwing a syntax error.

回答1:

Try adding a semicolon:

use foo;

回答2:

Without semicolon both statements will treat as single one. By adding semicolon MySQL will treat both statements as multiple queries. Try using

 use foo;
    /*and then*/
    select * from foo;
