Fatal error: Call to a member function fetch_assoc() on a non-object

That's because there was an error in your query. MySQli->query() will return false on error. Change it to something like::

$result = $this->database->query($query);
if (!$result) {
    throw new Exception("Database Error [{$this->database->errno}] {$this->database->error}");
}

That should throw an exception if there's an error...


Most likely your query failed, and the query call returned a boolean FALSE (or an error object of some sort), which you then try to use as if was a resultset object, causing the error. Try something like var_dump($result) to see what you really got.

Check for errors after EVERY database query call. Even if the query itself is syntactically valid, there's far too many reasons for it to fail anyways - checking for errors every time will save you a lot of grief at some point.
