If it is hibernate and JPA  check your referred table name and columns might be a mismatch

Enclose any string to be passed to the mysql server inside single quotes  e g     name    my name   query     INSERT INTO mytable VALUES   1     name       Note that although the query is enclosed between double quotes  you must enclose any string in single quotes

User · Answer

Try using different quotes for  y  as the identifier quote character is the backtick            Otherwise MySQL  thinks  that you point to a column named  y    See also MySQL 5 Documentation

I got this error when using GroupBy via LINQ on a MySQL database   The problem was that the anonymous object property that was being used by GroupBy did not match the database column name   Fixed by renaming anonymous property name to match the column name    Select f   gt  new       ThisPropertyNameNeedsToMatchYourColumnName   f SomeName     GroupBy t   gt  t ThisPropertyNameNeedsToMatchYourColumnName

You might check your choice of quotes  use double-  single quotes for values  strings  etc and backticks for column-names    Since you only want to update the table master user profile I d recommend a nested query   UPDATE    master user profile SET    master user profile fellow    y  WHERE    master user profile user id IN         SELECT tran user branch user id       FROM tran user branch WHERE tran user branch branch id   17

Just sharing my experience on this  I was having this same issue  The insert or update statement is correct  And I also checked the encoding   The column does exist  Then  I found out that I was referencing the column in my Trigger   You should also check your trigger see if any script is referencing the column you are having the problem with

Just sharing my experience on this  I was having this same issue  My query was like   select table1 column2 from table1   However  table1 did not have column2 column

User · Answer

A query like this will also cause the error   SELECT table1 id FROM table2   Where the table is specified in column select and not included in the from clause

User · Answer

In my case  it was caused by an unseen trailing space at the end of the column name  Just check if you really use  y  or  y   instead
