MySQLERRORCriticalHIGH confidence

Invalid stored program name

Production Risk

Low — The DDL fails but no data is affected.

Why it happens
  1. 1The stored program name contains illegal characters or exceeds the maximum length of 64 characters.
  2. 2A reserved word was used as the stored program name without proper quoting.

Fix 1

Use a valid identifier name

Why this works

Ensure the name is 64 characters or fewer, starts with a letter or underscore, and does not conflict with reserved words.

Fix 2

Quote reserved words with backticks

Quote reserved words with backticks
CREATE PROCEDURE `select`() BEGIN END;

Why this works

Backtick quoting allows reserved words to be used as identifiers.
