Hello everyone.... I am trying to use the mysql BDB tables option for safe transaction tables. I have finally activated BDB support with a 3.23.. mysql Max binary version using the latest version of php... I use the following script to test if the BEGIN & COMMIT option works but i always get the "out of sync message" The following mysql query is identical to a mysql.com example about BEGIN/COMMIT. Can someone offer any help or at least explain me what am i doing wrong??? Has Anyone tried mysql with BDB table and PHP successfully?? Regards. $handle=mysql_connect("localhost","root","s"); $db=mysql_select_db("safe",$handle); $query=mysql_query(" BEGIN; select @A:=SUM(salary) from safe where id = '2'; update safe set salary=@A where id='1'; COMMIT; ",$handle); _______________________ PGP KEY ID: 0xA86600E9 _______________________
