MySQl Error #1064

Question

I keep getting this error:

MySQL said: #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 'INSERT INTO books.book(isbn10,isbn13,title,edition,author_f_name,author_m_na' at line 15

with this query:

USE books;

DROP TABLE IF EXISTS book;


    CREATE TABLE `books`.`book`(
    `book_id` INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
    `isbn10` VARCHAR(15) NOT NULL,
    `isbn13` VARCHAR(15) NOT NULL,
    `title` VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
    `edition` VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
    `author_f_name` VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
    `author_m_name` VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
    `author_l_name` VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
    `cond` ENUM('as new','very good','good','fair','poor') NOT NULL,
    `price` DECIMAL(8,2) NOT NULL,
    `genre` VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
    `quantity` INT NOT NULL)

    INSERT INTO books.book(isbn10,isbn13,title,edition,author_f_name,author_m_name,author_l_name,cond,price,genre,quantity)** 
    VALUES ('0136061699','978-0136061694','Software Engineering: Theory and Practice','4','Shari','Lawrence','Pfleeger','very good','50','Computing','2');

Any idea what the problem is?

Answer 1

maybe you forgot to add ";" after this line of code:

`quantity` INT NOT NULL)

Answer 2

In my case I was having the same error and later I come to know that the 'condition' is mysql reserved keyword and I used that as field name.
