Feh. I've split it into FOUR statements, summarized as:
ActiveRecord::Base.connection.execute('DROP FUNCTION IF EXISTS
`coverage`;')
ActiveRecord::Base.connection.execute('DELIMITER $$')
ActiveRecord::Base.connection.execute(sql_body)
ActiveRecord::Base.connection.execute('DELIMITER ;')
... and it's still bombing out at the 'DELIMITER $$' statement:
ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: Mysql::Error: You have an error in your
SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server
version for the right syntax to use near 'DELIMITER $$' at line 1:
DELIMITER $$
I'm still not sure what's going on, since (as I mentioned) I can
hand-type this into dbconsole without getting an error.
I appreciate Rob & Fred's help, but it's not a show-stopper since I've
manually stored the function. But I remain curious as to why something
entered via execute() will fail when executing it by hand works. But
that's just curiosity, not a need.
Thanks.
