Run on phpMyAdmin local server: I have two tables: user (with data) and user_t (empty). They have the same column names, order, and type (the user_t table has an extra column for timestamping the input).

I want to create a scheduled event to check if the timestamp of each user log has a specific value, and if it exists, I want to copy it to user_t Also remove it from user. very simple.

Deletion works fine. It was INSERT INTO user_t SELECT * FROM user WHERE user.reg < CURRENT_TIMESTAMP - INTERVAL 3 MINUTE;< CURRENT_TIMESTAMP - INTERVAL 3 MINUTE; that gave me trouble.

This is the code I use to create the event:

CREATE EVENT users_u
ON SCHEDULE EVERY 1 MINUTE
STARTS CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
ENDS CURRENT_TIMESTAMP + INTERVAL 1 HOUR
DO 
INSERT INTO user_t SELECT * FROM user WHERE user.reg < CURRENT_TIMESTAMP - INTERVAL 3 MINUTE;
DELETE FROM user WHERE reg < CURRENT_TIMESTAMP - INTERVAL 3 MINUTE;

However, it keeps returning empty results. So, I thought I must be doing something wrong. Can you sincerely help me get this code working? After all, it's from a tutorial and should be fine.

I've tried using code and even considered looking into transactions , but that seems too bulky for this kind of operation.

edit

So after playing around with nbk's code I finally figured it out and here's the code that worked for me (I generalized the table and column names so they don't mislead anyone):

DELIMITER $$
CREATE EVENT event_name 
ON SCHEDULE EVERY 1 MINUTE 
STARTS CURRENT_TIMESTAMP 
ENDS CURRENT_TIMESTAMP + INTERVAL 1 HOUR 
DO 
    BEGIN 
    INSERT INTO empty_table (col_name1, col_name2, col_name3, col_name4, col_name5) 
    SELECT col_name1, col_name2, col_name3, col_name4, col_name5 FROM data_table WHERE col_name < CURRENT_TIMESTAMP - INTERVAL 3 MINUTE; 
    DELETE FROM data_table WHERE col_name < CURRENT_TIMESTAMP - INTERVAL 3 MINUTE; 
    END $$
DELIMITER ;

Hope it helps people like me in the future. Thanks again nbk for the quick help. Thank you very much, of course your answer is correct.

You run the event every minute and want to input the last three minutes, I don't know if you have that many new inserts or you need a python script or insert for an hour like this ==>For testing purposes I set the frequency to 1 minute...

You should still override your events.

First, do you really want duplicates, maybe INSERT IGNORE which will enter a new row if the constraint is violated

Second, if you have more than one statement, you need a BEGIN END

DELIMITER $$
CREATE EVENT users_u
ON SCHEDULE EVERY 1 MINUTE
STARTS CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
ENDS CURRENT_TIMESTAMP + INTERVAL 1 HOUR
DO 
    BEGIN
        INSERT IGNORE INTO user_t SELECT * FROM user WHERE user.reg < CURRENT_TIMESTAMP - INTERVAL 3 MINUTE;
        DELETE FROM user WHERE reg < CURRENT_TIMESTAMP - INTERVAL 3 MINUTE;
    END $$
DELIMITER ;
