    Description

      When executing query with syntax error, the too long and useless error message pollute log/screen and doesn't give any useful information.

      Maybe a more concise error message (1-3 line max) should be enough.

      SELECT FROM (VALUES(1));
      Error: PARSE ERROR: Encountered "FROM" at line 1, column 8.
