How to catch "No error: PDO constructor was not called" - php

how can I catch the following error: No error: PDO constructor was not called?
My question is not how to solve the error, but how to catch it!
I need that for a PHPUnit Testing Environment.
I was trying to catch it like that, but it simply doesn't work that way.
$pdo = (new \ReflectionClass(\PDO::class))->newInstanceWithoutConstructor();
try
{
$pdo->query("SELECT * FROM table");
}
catch (ErrorException $exc)
{
echo $exc->getTraceAsString();
}
the exact (error) message is as follows: PDO::query(): SQLSTATE[00000]: No error: PDO constructor was not called, but I am not sure, if that is even any type of PHP catchable.
I've already checked the method pdo_raise_impl_error()[PHP 7.3.3] that is called with the mentioned error message, but I am not wise enough to anticipate what actual type of error it produces...
Can please someone give advise?

Not sure if it's a solution you are looking for, but you can always convert all errors to exceptions with as simple code as
set_error_handler(function ($level, $message, $file = '', $line = 0)
{
throw new ErrorException($message, 0, $level, $file, $line);
});
Of course it will make a global error handler, but honestly, I believe every PHP project should have a code like this.
Or at least you can call this handler only temporarily

I now use the following code fore my test.
please check the first and the last line of code especially.
thanks to #YourCommonSense!
set_error_handler(function(int $errno, string $errstr, string $errfile, int $errline) {
throw new ErrorException($errstr, $errno, E_ERROR, $errfile, $errline);
});
$this->expectException(ErrorException::class);
$this->expectExceptionMessage("SQLSTATE[00000]: No error: PDO constructor was not called");
/* #var $pdo PDO */
$pdo = (new ReflectionClass(PDO::class))->newInstanceWithoutConstructor();
$pdo->query("SELECT * FROM table"); // triggers the error.
restore_error_handler();

Try and Catch for Syntax Errors

if i have the code below:
try {
//call function a
$object->function_a();
//call function b
$object->function_b();
//call function c
$object->function_c();
}
catch(Exception $e) {
$error->track_error();
}
how can i catch syntax errors, like someone is changing the function_b() name to function_d() which doesn't exists.
it seems that try and catch doesn't catch syntax errors, it doesn't work without an if statement to check if something is wrong.
but if i can expect an error with an if statement, why do i need try and catch, i can just write something like this:
if(//something is false) {
$error->track_error();
}
what i'm looking is something that will create an exception and jump to a catch block on the whole try scope, when any php error (including syntax) is happening, catch it and then get the details with error_get_last() or similar function for error logging inside the db.
is this possible?
You can use set_error_handler() to throw a custom Exception :
set_error_handler(function(int $errno, string $errstr, string $errfile = '', int $errline = 0) {
throw new Exception("$errstr ($errfile, line $errline)");
});

Unable to catch Exception when using Eval function

I'm writing code that randomly generates expressions for a genetic algorithm for code optimisation purposes. The generated expressions are eval'ed for fitness. Some expressions will generate errors and I need to be able to catch these and act appropriately.
I have the following code (simplified from the original):
set_error_handler(function($errno, $errstr, $errfile, $errline, $errcontext) {
throw new ErrorException($errstr, 0, $errno, $errfile, $errline);
});
$expression = '$y=~!7;';
try {
eval($expression);
} catch (Exception $e){
echo 'Expression failed';
} catch (ParseError $e){
echo 'Expression failed';
}
This throws the following error:
PHP Fatal error: Unsupported operand types in ..... : eval()'d code on line ....
But this error is not caught in either catch block.
I've set my own error handler so that all errors are promoted to exceptions.
How do I catch this error?
Note: I am very aware that using eval is dangerous, but there is strictly no user input in my code.
At least in PHP 7.1+, eval() terminates the script if the evaluated code generate a fatal error. For example:
#eval('$content = (100 - );');
(Even if it is in the man, I'm note sure it acted like this in 5.6, but whatever)
To catch it, I had to do:
try {
eval('$content = (100 - );');
} catch (ParseError $e) {
$content = null;
}
This is the only way I found to catch the error and hide the fact there was one.

Why not output I hope result in PHP7 using try and catch? [duplicate]

I need to catch some warnings being thrown from some php native functions and then handle them.
Specifically:
array dns_get_record ( string $hostname [, int $type= DNS_ANY [, array &$authns [, array &$addtl ]]] )
It throws a warning when the DNS query fails.
try/catch doesn't work because a warning is not an exception.
I now have 2 options:
set_error_handler seems like overkill because I have to use it to filter every warning in the page (is this true?);
Adjust error reporting/display so these warnings don't get echoed to screen, then check the return value; if it's false, no records is found for hostname.
What's the best practice here?
Set and restore error handler
One possibility is to set your own error handler before the call and restore the previous error handler later with restore_error_handler().
set_error_handler(function() { /* ignore errors */ });
dns_get_record();
restore_error_handler();
You could build on this idea and write a re-usable error handler that logs the errors for you.
set_error_handler([$logger, 'onSilencedError']);
dns_get_record();
restore_error_handler();
Turning errors into exceptions
You can use set_error_handler() and the ErrorException class to turn all php errors into exceptions.
set_error_handler(function($errno, $errstr, $errfile, $errline) {
// error was suppressed with the #-operator
if (0 === error_reporting()) {
return false;
}
throw new ErrorException($errstr, 0, $errno, $errfile, $errline);
});
try {
dns_get_record();
} catch (ErrorException $e) {
// ...
}
The important thing to note when using your own error handler is that it will bypass the error_reporting setting and pass all errors (notices, warnings, etc.) to your error handler. You can set a second argument on set_error_handler() to define which error types you want to receive, or access the current setting using ... = error_reporting() inside the error handler.
Suppressing the warning
Another possibility is to suppress the call with the # operator and check the return value of dns_get_record() afterwards. But I'd advise against this as errors/warnings are triggered to be handled, not to be suppressed.
The solution that really works turned out to be setting simple error handler with E_WARNING parameter, like so:
set_error_handler("warning_handler", E_WARNING);
dns_get_record(...)
restore_error_handler();
function warning_handler($errno, $errstr) {
// do something
}
Be careful with the # operator - while it suppresses warnings it also suppresses fatal errors. I spent a lot of time debugging a problem in a system where someone had written #mysql_query( '...' ) and the problem was that mysql support was not loaded into PHP and it threw a silent fatal error. It will be safe for those things that are part of the PHP core but please use it with care.
bob#mypc:~$ php -a
Interactive shell
php > echo #something(); // this will just silently die...
No further output - good luck debugging this!
bob#mypc:~$ php -a
Interactive shell
php > echo something(); // lets try it again but don't suppress the error
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function something() in php shell code on line 1
PHP Stack trace:
PHP 1. {main}() php shell code:0
bob#mypc:~$
This time we can see why it failed.
I wanted to try/catch a warning, but at the same time keep the usual warning/error logging (e.g. in /var/log/apache2/error.log); for which the handler has to return false. However, since the "throw new..." statement basically interrupts the execution, one then has to do the "wrap in function" trick, also discussed in:
Is there a static way to throw exception in php
Or, in brief:
function throwErrorException($errstr = null,$code = null, $errno = null, $errfile = null, $errline = null) {
throw new ErrorException($errstr, 0, $errno, $errfile, $errline);
}
function warning_handler($errno, $errstr, $errfile, $errline, array $errcontext) {
return false && throwErrorException($errstr, 0, $errno, $errfile, $errline);
# error_log("AAA"); # will never run after throw
/* Do execute PHP internal error handler */
# return false; # will never run after throw
}
...
set_error_handler('warning_handler', E_WARNING);
...
try {
mkdir($path, 0777, true);
} catch (Exception $e) {
echo $e->getMessage();
// ...
}
EDIT: after closer inspection, it turns out it doesn't work: the "return false && throwErrorException ..." will, basically, not throw the exception, and just log in the error log; removing the "false &&" part, as in "return throwErrorException ...", will make the exception throwing work, but will then not log in the error_log... I'd still keep this posted, though, as I haven't seen this behavior documented elsewhere.
Combining these lines of code around a file_get_contents() call to an external url helped me handle warnings like "failed to open stream: Connection timed out" much better:
set_error_handler(function ($err_severity, $err_msg, $err_file, $err_line, array $err_context)
{
throw new ErrorException( $err_msg, 0, $err_severity, $err_file, $err_line );
}, E_WARNING);
try {
$iResult = file_get_contents($sUrl);
} catch (Exception $e) {
$this->sErrorMsg = $e->getMessage();
}
restore_error_handler();
This solution works within object context, too. You could use it in a function:
public function myContentGetter($sUrl)
{
... code above ...
return $iResult;
}
Normaly you should never use # unless this is the only solution. In that specific case the function dns_check_record should be use first to know if the record exists.
If dns_get_record() fails, it should return FALSE, so you can suppress the warning with # and then check the return value.
You should probably try to get rid of the warning completely, but if that's not possible, you can prepend the call with # (i.e. #dns_get_record(...)) and then use any information you can get to figure out if the warning happened or not.
try checking whether it returns some boolean value then you can simply put it as a condition. I encountered this with the oci_execute(...) which was returning some violation with my unique keys.
ex.
oci_parse($res, "[oracle pl/sql]");
if(oci_execute){
...do something
}
As of PHP8, you can do the following instead of setting error handlers to catch Errors and Warnings. I Believe in PHP 7.something you could catch some Errors.
try {
call_user_func('sprintf', array_merge([$string], $args));
} catch (Throwable $e) {
$logger->info('mesage...');
}
You should generally be somewhere that you can pass or access a logger if you bulkhead in this way, as it can obfuscate coder errors, such as passing incorrectly typed parameters to a method, and mask a variety of other problems.
https://php.watch/versions/8.0/internal-function-exceptions
Not sure if notices are caught (likely not), but you can likely solve around examples like this one, by thinking a little more about what you are looking to do.
Both builder pattern, and options patterns provide solutions for this where prior to the site of call, which can be a private function or just after validity checks, you can throw a real custom exception that is attributable only to your code. That will make even built-in functions very safe to use.
One other nice practice is to use either debug_backtrace, with DEBUG_BACKTRACE_IGNORE_ARGS or use the getTrace or getTraceAsString methods on the Throwable so that some of the context is preseved.

include_once 'CustomException.php';
echo $a; // here undefined variable warning will be logged into logs/app_errors.log
Since PHP7 you can catch most errors and warnings like so:
try {
whatever();
} catch (Throwable $e) {
}
More: https://www.php.net/manual/en/language.errors.php7.php
I would only recommend using # to suppress warnings when it's a straight forward operation (e.g. $prop = #($high/($width - $depth)); to skip division by zero warnings). However in most cases it's better to handle.

PHP: can anyone explain this Exception Handler error?

hi can anyone here can help how to determine whats the error on here? please i really need to know. thank you in advance guys! help me to figure out what is wrong with the codes below.
function exception_error_handler($errno, $errstir, $errfile, $errline ) {
throw new ErrorException($errstr, $errno, 0, $errfile, $errline);;
}
set_error_handler("exception_error_handler");
/* Trigger exception */
strpos();
i don't know whats the error on this but it stills keeping an error output. pls help me guys
In PHP notices and warnings don't throw exceptions. Calling strpos() without parameters is a warning. That function registers your custom function as the error_handler, which basically converts all notices and warnings to an exception. It' useful for development and debugging, and a lot of frameworks use something like that to show error pages in development mode.
Could you try the following code which catches the custom ErrorException which you throw?:
function exception_error_handler($errno, $errstir, $errfile, $errline ) {
throw new ErrorException($errstr, $errno, 0, $errfile, $errline);;
}
set_error_handler("exception_error_handler");
try {
/* Trigger exception */
strpos();
echo 'No exception was thrown';
}
//catch exception
catch(Exception $e) {
echo 'Message: ' .$e->getMessage();
}

How to catch un-handled errors with PHPseclib?

Let's say I have the following piece of code.
To test this, I change the server IP to mimic the error messages. The IP below doesn't exist so the Unhandled Exception message is: Cannot connect to 10.199.1.7. Error 113. No route to host
This displays an ugly screen with PHP code. Is it possible to catch this error?
try {
$ssh = new Net_SSH2('10.199.1.7');
if (!$ssh->login('deploy', $key)) {
throw new Exception("Failed login");
}
} catch (Exception $e) {
???
}
Looked through library.
user_error('Connection closed by server', E_USER_NOTICE);
It triggers errors. You can handle those errors using http://php.net/manual/en/function.set-error-handler.php
e.g.
// Your file.php
$ssh = new Net_SSH2('10.199.1.7');
$ssh->login('deploy', $key);
// bootstrap.php
// This will catch all user notice errors!!!
set_error_handler ('errorHandler', E_USER_NOTICE)
function errorHandler($errno, $errstr, $errfile, $errline) {
echo 'Error';
// Whatever you want to do.
}
You can use # in front of you function call. # operator
