I need some help with the query below - I am trying to pull information regarding price and multiply with the quantity & insert the sum into the table. So far I have,
update passenger_baggage
SET passenger_baggage.total_baggage_cost=passenger_baggage.passenger_baggage_quantity*baggage_type.baggage_type_cost
FROM passenger_baggage INNER JOIN baggage_type
ON passenger_baggage.passenger_baggage_id = baggage_type.baggage_type_id
WHERE passenger_id = "3";
and getting this error
#1064 - 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 'FROM passenger_baggage INNER JOIN baggage_type ON passenger_baggage.passenge...' at line 3
Expecting the query to multiply the two values & insert the total.

There is no FROM
clause in an UPDATE
query.
Try with this modified query:
update passenger_baggage
INNER JOIN baggage_type
ON passenger_baggage.passenger_baggage_id = baggage_type.baggage_type_id
SET passenger_baggage.total_baggage_cost = passenger_baggage.passenger_baggage_quantity * baggage_type.baggage_type_cost
WHERE passenger_id = "3";
CodePudding user response:
Try this:
UPDATE passenger_baggage, baggage_type
SET passenger_baggage.total_baggage_cost = passenger_baggage.passenger_baggage_quantity * baggage_type.baggage_type_cost
WHERE passenger_baggage.passenger_baggage_id = baggage_type.baggage_type_id AND passenger_id = "3";
Saw an example from the MySQL doc (https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/update.html)
