Error Analysis

Error Analysis helps you understand database and SQL errors by providing clear explanations, identifying possible causes, and recommending potential solutions.

Instead of only displaying an error message, Qubase AI explains what happened, why it happened, and how to resolve it.

This feature helps developers debug SQL more efficiently and improve database quality.


Before you begin

Before analyzing an error, ensure that you have:

  • Created a Workspace
  • Created a Project
  • Opened AI Engineering

[!NOTE] Error Analysis does not modify your SQL or database. It only analyzes the provided information and generates recommendations.


What can AI analyze?

Qubase AI can analyze:

  • SQL syntax errors
  • Missing tables
  • Missing columns
  • Invalid relationships
  • Constraint violations
  • Foreign Key errors
  • Duplicate object names
  • Unsupported SQL statements

The analysis depends on the provided SQL statement and the selected database system.


Example

Suppose the following SQL is executed:

SELECT email FROM users WHERE customer_id = 10;

The database returns:

ERROR: column "customer_id" does not exist

Analyze an error

To analyze a SQL error:

  1. Open AI Engineering.
  2. Select Error Analysis.
  3. Paste the SQL statement or database error message.
  4. Start the analysis.
  5. Review the explanation.
  6. Apply the recommended solution if appropriate.

AI explanation

Qubase AI may explain:

  • What caused the error
  • Which database object is affected
  • Why the SQL failed
  • Which SQL statement should be corrected
  • Possible solutions

Common error categories

CategoryDescription
Syntax ErrorInvalid SQL syntax
Missing TableReferenced table does not exist
Missing ColumnReferenced column does not exist
Constraint ErrorConstraint validation failed
Foreign Key ErrorInvalid relationship reference
Data Type ErrorIncompatible values or types
Permission ErrorInsufficient database permissions

Benefits

Error Analysis helps you:

  • Understand SQL errors
  • Reduce debugging time
  • Learn database concepts
  • Improve SQL quality
  • Resolve issues more efficiently

Best practices

  • Review the complete error message.
  • Confirm the correct table and column names.
  • Validate relationships before running SQL.
  • Test corrected SQL in a development environment.
  • Use Error Analysis together with SQL Validation.

[!TIP] Error Analysis explains the reason behind an error, making it easier to understand and fix complex SQL problems.
