PDO error message?
Old thread, but maybe my answer will help someone. I resolved by executing the query first, then setting an errors variable, then checking if that errors variable array is empty. see simplified example:
$field1 = 'foo';
$field2 = 'bar';
$insert_QUERY = $db->prepare("INSERT INTO table bogus(field1, field2) VALUES (:field1, :field2)");
$insert_QUERY->bindParam(':field1', $field1);
$insert_QUERY->bindParam(':field2', $field2);
$insert_QUERY->execute();
$databaseErrors = $insert_QUERY->errorInfo();
if( !empty($databaseErrors) ){
$errorInfo = print_r($databaseErrors, true); # true flag returns val rather than print
$errorLogMsg = "error info: $errorInfo"; # do what you wish with this var, write to log file etc...
/*
$errorLogMsg will return something like:
error info:
Array(
[0] => 42000
[1] => 1064
[2] => You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'table bogus(field1, field2) VALUES ('bar', NULL)' at line 1
)
*/
} else {
# no SQL errors.
}
Try this instead:
print_r($sth->errorInfo());
Add this before your prepare:
$this->pdo->setAttribute( PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_WARNING );
This will change the PDO error reporting type and cause it to emit a warning whenever there is a PDO error. It should help you track it down, although your errorInfo should have bet set.
Maybe this post is too old but it may help as a suggestion for someone looking around on this : Instead of using:
print_r($this->pdo->errorInfo());
Use PHP implode() function:
echo 'Error occurred:'.implode(":",$this->pdo->errorInfo());
This should print the error code, detailed error information etc. that you would usually get if you were using some SQL User interface.
Hope it helps
