Hey everyone, got a problem here. I'm using php4.2.1, postgres 7.2. I'm
trying to do a simple database connect with the following small php script:
--------------------------
<html><head><title>PHP Test</title></head>
<body>
<?php
//connect to postgres database
$conn=pg_connect("user=bnoecker dbname=brian");
//see if our connection was successful
if ($conn==false) {
//connection failed - exit the page with an error
echo pg_errormessage($conn);
exit;
}
else if($conn) {
echo "I did it";
}
$sql="SELECT * FROM employee";
$sql_result=pg_exec($conn.$sql) or die ("Couldn't Execute Query.");
------------------------------------
I can manually run the SELECT * FROM employee string and get results with
user bnoecker. I've granted all to bnoecker and as well added the postgres
admin to the user=. In test, no password has been assigned. I do not get a
connection failed message, in fact I do the the "I did it" message. I do
however get the following as it tries to do the query:
I did it
Warning: pg_exec() query failed: ERROR: parser: parse error at or near
"resource" in /home/bnoecker/public_html/hello.php on line 19
Couldn't Execute Query.
Now, others use the same postgres instance with other databases from php
scripts without issue, mostly using includes. Can someone show me what I
may be overlooking. I'm new to php but I found examples where things are
basically layed out like what I've got?
Thanks,
Brian
