I am very new to postgres. I got this error when try to run the following script:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION xyz(text) RETURNS INTEGER AS
'DECLARE result int;
BEGIN
SELECT count(*) into result from tbldealercommissions
WHERE
txtdealercode = $1;
if result < 1 then returns 1;
else returns 2 ;
end if;
END;
'
LANGUAGE sql VOLATILE;
The error is
ERROR: syntax error at or near "int"
LINE 3: 'DECLARE result int;
not sure what cause this error. Any help is appreciated.

This is unsuitable:
LANGUAGE sql
use this instead:
LANGUAGE plpgsql
The syntax you are trying to use is not pure SQL language but the procedural PL/pgSQL language. In PostgreSQL you can install different languages and PL/pgSQL is only primus inter pares in that regard. This also means that you might get the error message, that this language is not installed. In that case use
CREATE LANGUAGE plpgsql;
which actives it. Depending on the version of PostgreSQL you might need superuser rights to do this step.
Have fun.

Not only are you using the wrong language (as noted by A.H.) but there is returns
keyword, you want return
. You might want to use a different delimiter to avoid running into problems with string literals in your functions, $$
is pretty common. I think your function should look more like this:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION xyz(text) RETURNS INTEGER AS $$
DECLARE result int;
BEGIN
select count(*) into result
from tbldealercommissions
where txtdealercode = $1;
if result < 1 then return 1;
else return 2;
end if;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql VOLATILE;

Syntax errors are quite common while coding.
But, things go for a toss when it results in website errors.
PostgreSQL error 42601 also occurs due to syntax errors in the database queries.
At Bobcares, we often get requests from PostgreSQL users to fix errors as part of our Server Management Services.
Today, let’s check PostgreSQL error in detail and see how our Support Engineers fix it for the customers.
What causes error 42601 in PostgreSQL?
PostgreSQL is an advanced database engine. It is popular for its extensive features and ability to handle complex database situations.
Applications like Instagram, Facebook, Apple, etc rely on the PostgreSQL database.
But what causes error 42601?
PostgreSQL error codes consist of five characters. The first two characters denote the class of errors. And the remaining three characters indicate a specific condition within that class.
Here, 42 in 42601 represent the class “Syntax Error or Access Rule Violation“.
In short, this error mainly occurs due to the syntax errors in the queries executed. A typical error shows up as:
Here, the syntax error has occurred in position 119 near the value “parents” in the query.
How we fix the error?
Now let’s see how our PostgreSQL engineers resolve this error efficiently.
Recently, one of our customers contacted us with this error. He tried to execute the following code,
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION prc_tst_bulk(sql text)
RETURNS TABLE (name text, rowcount integer) AS
$$
BEGIN
WITH m_ty_person AS (return query execute sql)
select name, count(*) from m_ty_person where name like '%a%' group by name
union
select name, count(*) from m_ty_person where gender = 1 group by name;
END
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;
But, this ended up in PostgreSQL error 42601. And he got the following error message,
ERROR: syntax error at or near "return"
LINE 5: WITH m_ty_person AS (return query execute sql)
Our PostgreSQL Engineers checked the issue and found out the syntax error. The statement in Line 5 was a mix of plain and dynamic SQL. In general, the PostgreSQL query should be either fully dynamic or plain. Therefore, we changed the code as,
RETURN QUERY EXECUTE '
WITH m_ty_person AS (' || sql || $x$)
SELECT name, count(*)::int FROM m_ty_person WHERE name LIKE '%a%' GROUP BY name
UNION
SELECT name, count(*)::int FROM m_ty_person WHERE gender = 1 GROUP BY name$x$;
This resolved the error 42601, and the code worked fine.

PostgreSQL – SQL state: 42601 syntax error
Posted By: Anonymous
I would like to know how to use a dynamic query inside a function. I’ve tried lots of ways, however, when I try to compile my function a message SQL 42601 is displayed.
The code that I use:
Error message I receive:
What is wrong? How can I solve this problem?
Solution
Your function would work like this:
You cannot mix plain and dynamic SQL the way you tried to do it. The whole statement is either all dynamic or all plain SQL. So I am building one dynamic statement to make this work. You may be interested in the chapter about executing dynamic commands in the manual.
The aggregate function count() returns bigint , but you had rowcount defined as integer , so you need an explicit cast ::int to make this work
I use dollar quoting to avoid quoting hell.
However, is this supposed to be a honeypot for SQL injection attacks or are you seriously going to use it? For your very private and secure use, it might be ok-ish – though I wouldn’t even trust myself with a function like that. If there is any possible access for untrusted users, such a function is a loaded footgun. It’s impossible to
make this secure.
Craig (a sworn enemy of SQL injection!) might get a light stroke, when he sees what you forged from his piece of code in the answer to your preceding question. 🙂
The query itself seems rather odd, btw. But that’s beside the point here.

Syntax errors are quite common while coding.
But, things go for a toss when it results in website errors.
PostgreSQL error 42601 also occurs due to syntax errors in the database queries.
At Bobcares, we often get requests from PostgreSQL users to fix errors as part of our Server Management Services.
Today, let’s check PostgreSQL error in detail and see how our Support Engineers fix it for the customers.
What causes error 42601 in PostgreSQL?
PostgreSQL is an advanced database engine. It is popular for its extensive features and ability to handle complex database situations.
Applications like Instagram, Facebook, Apple, etc rely on the PostgreSQL database.
But what causes error 42601?
PostgreSQL error codes consist of five characters. The first two characters denote the class of errors. And the remaining three characters indicate a specific condition within that class.
Here, 42 in 42601 represent the class “Syntax Error or Access Rule Violation“.
In short, this error mainly occurs due to the syntax errors in the queries executed. A typical error shows up as:
Here, the syntax error has occurred in position 119 near the value “parents” in the query.
How we fix the error?
Now let’s see how our PostgreSQL engineers resolve this error efficiently.
Recently, one of our customers contacted us with this error. He tried to execute the following code,
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION prc_tst_bulk(sql text)
RETURNS TABLE (name text, rowcount integer) AS
$$
BEGIN
WITH m_ty_person AS (return query execute sql)
select name, count(*) from m_ty_person where name like '%a%' group by name
union
select name, count(*) from m_ty_person where gender = 1 group by name;
END
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;
But, this ended up in PostgreSQL error 42601. And he got the following error message,
ERROR: syntax error at or near "return"
LINE 5: WITH m_ty_person AS (return query execute sql)
Our PostgreSQL Engineers checked the issue and found out the syntax error. The statement in Line 5 was a mix of plain and dynamic SQL. In general, the PostgreSQL query should be either fully dynamic or plain. Therefore, we changed the code as,
RETURN QUERY EXECUTE '
WITH m_ty_person AS (' || sql || $x$)
SELECT name, count(*)::int FROM m_ty_person WHERE name LIKE '%a%' GROUP BY name
UNION
SELECT name, count(*)::int FROM m_ty_person WHERE gender = 1 GROUP BY name$x$;
This resolved the error 42601, and the code worked fine.

In short, PostgreSQL error 42601 occurs due to the syntax errors in the code. Today, in this write-up, we have discussed how our Support Engineers fixed this error for our customers.

I am just moving to some PostgreSQL from MS-SQL and have checked numerous pages on how to use variables in a script but am getting nowhere
Within pg-admin I have my database and have a new script. I have stripped the SQL right back to a single line as follows:
DECLARE v_syncId integer;
Running this script gives me:
ERROR: syntax error at or near "integer" LINE 1: DECLARE v_syncId integer; ^ SQL state: 42601 Character: 18
I am obviously doing something wrong here but can’t see what
What I have tried:
I have tried setting default values but no luck (same error)
DECLARE v_syncId integer DEFAULT 50;
DECLARE v_syncId integer = 50;
Both give the same error
I have tried other data types:
DECLARE v_syncId VARCHAR;
and also same result.
Any references here would be appreciated.
