SHOW ERRORS
Synopsis
SHOW [COUNT(*)] ERRORS [LIMIT [offset,]count]
Use this statement to display error
messages for previous SQL statements for the current session. To get
a total number of error messages, use the COUNT(*)
clause. This cannot be used with the LIMIT clause,
though. The LIMIT clause is used to limit the
number of errors displayed. An offset can be given along with the
count to specify a starting point for displaying error messages.
This
statement is available as of Version 4.1 of MySQL. It will not
display warnings or notes—just error messages. Use the
SHOW WARNINGS statement to get all three.
Here are a couple of examples of how you can use this statement:
SHOW ERRORS; SHOW COUNT(*) ERRORS;
The first line displays all error messages in an ASCII-formatted table. The second line returns the number of error messages.
