Help: MySQL adapter.fill(dataset) Error
Question
I'm connecting to a MySQL database using the MySqlClient class. When I try to fill a fill a Data List with the Data Set I get an error:
#42000You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax
Heres the code I have in VB.net to fill the data list.
Dim strConn As String = "server=name;uid=un;pwd=pass;database=db"
Dim myConnection As New MySqlConnection(strConn)
Dim strSQL As String = "SELECT * FROM Articles = "
Dim myDataAdapter As New MySqlDataAdapter(strSQL, myConnection)
Dim ds As New DataSet()
myConnection.Open()
myDataAdapter.Fill(ds, "Articles")
MyDataList.DataSource = ds
myconnection.close()
Heres the Code for the DataList Control
<ASP:DataList id="MyDataList" runat="server">
<ItemTemplate>
Title:
<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "title")%>
<br>
<b>Author: </b>
<%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Author")%><br>
<b>PubDate: </b>
<%#DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "PubDate")%><br>
<p>
</ItemTemplate>
</ASP:DataList>
The connection works fine, and I am able to grab values; but I cannot fill this Data List.
Solution
There's an error in your SQL query. I believe it should read "SELECT * FROM Articles"
(that's minus the equals.)
OTHER TIPS
It looks like you have an '=' in your SQL string. Remove that and try it again.
