COUNT not working on XAMPP
I have just installed XAMPP version 7.0.2 which incorporates MariaDB. I have added a table called repairs to the test database and it works fine with various PHP pages I have written. However, when trying to use a simple query like:
SELECT COUNT (*) FROM repairs
I get the following error message:
#1630 - FUNCTION test.COUNT does not exist. Check the 'Function Name Parsing and Resolution' section in the Reference Manual
This happens in both phpMyadmin and in PHP pages which are accessing the database.

See the manual about sql_mode variable, in particular about IGNORE_SPACE value.
