MariaDB / MYSql non-descript syntax error with update on duplicate key

Question

I am getting a very non-descriptive error:

ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near 'VALUES (order_site_id, order_id, business_email, business_domain, sm_type, activ' at line 1

Here's the insert/update

INSERT INTO table 
(
    id,
    order_site_id,
    order_id,
    business_email,
    business_domain,
    sm_type,

Answer 1

You don't use a VALUES clause with ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE.

The syntax should be more like UPDATE syntax:

INSERT INTO table (id, order_site_id, order_id, ...) 
VALUES (1, 2, 1, ...), (2, 2, 2, ...), ...more tuples...
ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE 
SET order_site_id = <expr>,
    order_id = <expr>,
    ...other column assignments...

See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/insert-on-duplicate.html

If you just want the existing column values to be left alone in cases of a duplicate key, you should consider using INSERT IGNORE instead of ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE with a no-op update.
