Here is the full script: $a=odbc_connect("mydsn","myid","mypwd") or die("Database is down"); echo "$a"; $b=odbc_exec($a,"select * from mytable"); echo odbc_error ();
FYI, if I execute only the first 2 lines, there is no problem, meaning that the server is accesssible ($a is "Resource id #1"). When the whole script is executed with Internet Explorer, a windows pops up and says: "The connection with the server was reset". When executed with Opera, the window says: "Repeated attemps failed to load this page completely. Them may be a problem on the server". the echo odbc_error() does not help. The Apache server, and php pages are on my PC (localhost) connected to a LAN, and the SQL Server is on a NT server on the LAN. The dsn odbc driver is on my PC. What's wrong here and what should I change? Thanks to all for your inputs. -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Hill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2001 2:05 PM To: LeTortorec, Jean-Louis; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [PHP-DB] connecting SQL 7.0 If you attempt to echo out a Resource Id it tells you it's name :) This should still work in an exec.
