RESIGNAL [error_condition]
    [SET error_property
    [, error_property] ...]

error_condition:

  | condition_name

error_property:
    error_property_name = <error_property_value>

error_property_name:
    CLASS_ORIGIN
  | SUBCLASS_ORIGIN
  | MESSAGE_TEXT
  | MYSQL_ERRNO
  | CONSTRAINT_CATALOG
  | CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA
  | CONSTRAINT_NAME
  | CATALOG_NAME
  | SCHEMA_NAME
  | TABLE_NAME
  | COLUMN_NAME

Description

The syntax of RESIGNAL and its semantics are very similar to SIGNAL. This statement can only be used within an error HANDLER. It produces an error, like SIGNAL. RESIGNAL clauses are the same as SIGNAL, except that they all are optional, even SQLSTATE. All the properties which are not specified in RESIGNAL, will be identical to the properties of the error that was received by the error HANDLER. For a description of the clauses, see diagnostics area.

Note that RESIGNAL does not empty the diagnostics area: it just appends another error condition.

RESIGNAL, without any clauses, produces an error which is identical to the error that was received by HANDLER.

If used out of a HANDLER construct, RESIGNAL produces the following error:

ERROR 1645 (0K000): RESIGNAL when handler not active

In MariaDB 5.5, if a HANDLER contained a CALL to another procedure, that procedure could use RESIGNAL. Since MariaDB 10.0, trying to do this raises the above error.

For a list of SQLSTATE values and MariaDB error codes, see MariaDB Error Codes.

The following procedure tries to query two tables which don't exist, producing a 1146 error in both cases. Those errors will trigger the HANDLER. The first time the error will be ignored and the client will not receive it, but the second time, the error is re-signaled, so the client will receive it.

CREATE PROCEDURE test_error( )
BEGIN
   DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER
      FOR 1146
   BEGIN
   IF @hide_errors IS FALSE THEN
      RESIGNAL;
   END IF;
   END;
   SET @hide_errors = TRUE;
   SELECT 'Next error will be ignored' AS msg;
   SELECT `c` FROM `temptab_one`;
   SELECT 'Next error won''t be ignored' AS msg;
   SET @hide_errors = FALSE;
   SELECT `c` FROM `temptab_two`;
END;

CALL test_error( );

+----------------------------+
| msg                        |
+----------------------------+
| Next error will be ignored |
+----------------------------+

+-----------------------------+
| msg                         |
+-----------------------------+
| Next error won't be ignored |
+-----------------------------+

ERROR 1146 (42S02): Table 'test.temptab_two' doesn't exist

The following procedure re-signals an error, modifying only the error message to clarify the cause of the problem.

CREATE PROCEDURE test_error()
BEGIN
   DECLARE CONTINUE HANDLER
   FOR 1146
   BEGIN
      RESIGNAL SET
      MESSAGE_TEXT = '`temptab` does not exist';
   END;
   SELECT `c` FROM `temptab`;
END;

CALL test_error( );
ERROR 1146 (42S02): `temptab` does not exist

As explained above, this works on MariaDB 5.5, but produces a 1645 error since 10.0.

CREATE PROCEDURE handle_error()
BEGIN
  RESIGNAL;
END;
CREATE PROCEDURE p()
BEGIN
  DECLARE EXIT HANDLER FOR SQLEXCEPTION CALL p();
  SIGNAL SQLSTATE '45000';
END;
