SQL query:

CREATE TRIGGER tg_newuser_insert
BEFORE INSERT ON tbl_newuser
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
  INSERT INTO tbl_seq VALUES (NULL)
  SET NEW.id = CONCAT('YTUM', LPAD(LAST_INSERT_ID(), 8, '00000'));
END

    SET can be used with UPDATE query and not INSERT. Commented Nov 24, 2015 at 22:31
  • Yeah, I don't think the trigger is your problem. Commented Nov 24, 2015 at 22:32
  • I changed Insert to Update, no luck. Commented Nov 24, 2015 at 22:34
  • Any other suggestions would be appreciated. Commented Nov 24, 2015 at 22:36
  • use ; after your insert statement and dont forget the DELIMITER Commented Nov 24, 2015 at 23:14

Your Formatting is off, remember DELIMITER $$ statements are required, as it is no different than creating a stored procedure.

Check the documentation any time you run into issues like this.

Scroll about half way down the documents to see the example.

But, This is what your looking for:

DELIMITER $$
CREATE TRIGGER tg_newuser_insert 
BEFORE UPDATE ON tbl_newuser
FOR EACH ROW
    BEGIN

        SET NEW.id = CONCAT('YTUM', LPAD(LAST_INSERT_ID(), 8, '00000'));

    END $$
DELIMITER ;
