2008-06-12 Thread YVES SUCAET

Hi Yves, to understand if an error is occured you can use the static method Pear::isError($db) where $db is an instance of MDB2 object. To get the specific error you can use the MDB2 method getMessage() ($db->getMessage()). Hope this help, Laura > Hello, > > What's the equivalent of mysql_error

Make sure some where in your php.ini you have a line that looks like this and is not commented out: extension=mssql.so I haven't used a fedora box as a php webserver in over a year, so my memory of their config file layout is pretty rusty. However, I'm pretty sure they consolidate everything into

Hi Yves, As the error object should be an PEAR_Error object then the function $result->getUserInfo() should give you the information you need. An example being: $record_sql = "SELECT * FROM non_existent_table"; $record_result =& $mdb2->query($record_sql); if (PEAR::isError($record_result)) {
