SQL syntax error in 3.0.7

Hello,

I’m seeing these intermittent warning messages in my /var/log/messages
on RedHat 9.

This is running RT 3.0.7 using Apache 1.3.29, MySQL 4.0.17.

Dec 29 17:29:04 it-linux1 RT: DBD::mysql::st execute failed: 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 ‘NULL’ at line 1
at /opt/i386-linux/installed/perl-5.8.2/lib/site_perl/5.8.2/
DBIx/SearchBuilder/Handle.pm line 410.
(/export/home2/apache/intranet_html/rt-3.0.7/lib/RT.pm:247)

Best,
Blair

Hello,

What DBIx::SearchBuilder? And can you peek in your mysql error log to
see if it’s the “Load an empty user” issue or something else?

It’s 0.95 of DBIx::SearchBuilder. I’ve got all the latest CPAN packages
in my Perl install, using Perl 5.8.2.

The only error log I could find with MySQL’s RPMs is in

/var/lib/mysql/HOSTNAME.err

which just contains this

031223 17:14:16 mysqld ended

031223 17:14:16 mysqld started
031223 17:14:16 InnoDB: Started

/usr/sbin/mysqld: ready for connections.
Version: ‘4.0.17-standard’ socket: ‘/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock’ port: 0

Is this where error messages would show up?

The /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql runs this:

$bindir/mysqld_safe --datadir=$datadir --pid-file=$pid_file >/dev/null 2>&1 &

Would redirecting these errors to /dev/null lose the errors?

Blair

It turns out that this is the same problem with trying to Load a user
whose name is “RT::CurrentUser=0x…”. DBIx::SearchBuilder just fails
more obviously when someone tries to do something dangerous.

lib/RT/Interface/Web.pm. sub loc. (Line 216 in 3.0.8rc1)

change “RT::SystemUser” to “RT::SystemUser->Name”

That will fix it.

This fix will be in 3.0.8
