MariaDB Error 1322: Invalid Cursor SELECT Statement
Description
This error indicates that a cursor defined within a MariaDB stored procedure is not associated with a `SELECT` statement. Cursors are designed to iterate over result sets, meaning their underlying statement must explicitly be a `SELECT` query to fetch data.
Error Message
Cursor statement must be a SELECT
Known Causes
3 known causesNon-SELECT Statement in Cursor
The most common cause is attempting to define a cursor with a statement other than `SELECT`, such as `INSERT`, `UPDATE`, `DELETE`, or `SET`, which is not permitted.
Malformed SELECT Query
Even if a `SELECT` statement is intended, syntax errors within the query itself can cause the parser to misinterpret it, leading to this error.
Incorrect Cursor Definition Syntax
Users new to MariaDB stored procedures or cursors might mistakenly use an incorrect syntax for declaring a cursor, not realizing it strictly requires a `SELECT` statement.
