MySQL error code 1235

Question

In MySQL I tried to define a trigger like this:

DELIMITER $$  
CREATE TRIGGER vipInvite  
AFTER INSERT ON meetings  
         


        

Answer 1

How to reproduce this error in MySQL:

ERROR 1235 (42000): This version of MySQL doesn't yet support 'multiple 
triggers with the same action time and event for one table'

Run the following queries:

DELIMITER //
CREATE TRIGGER mytrigger1 AFTER INSERT ON mytable
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
END//

DELIMITER //
CREATE TRIGGER mytrigger2 AFTER INSERT ON mytable
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
END//

If you want to hook more than one action onto the same event/table, you will have to cram all of it into one trigger. You could call many stored procedures like this:

DELIMITER //
CREATE TRIGGER mytrigger1 AFTER INSERT ON mytable
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
    CALL fromulate_the_moobars(NEW.myid);
    CALL its_peanut_butter_jelly_time(NEW.myname);
END//
