how to check success on insert using OCI - php

Question

I have the following code but i am not sure how to check if insert is success. execute returns resource id. I would like to check if success and return all errors on fail.
public function persist()
{
$update = FALSE;
if(!is_array($this->tablePrimaryKey)) {
if(!empty($this->fieldVals[$this->tablePrimaryKey])) {
$update = true;
}
}
if ($update) {
$sql = "UPDATE " . $this->tableName . " SET ";
$binds = [];
foreach ($this->fieldVals as $key=>$val) {
if ($key != $this->tablePrimaryKey) {
if(in_array($key, $this->DATE_IDS)) {
$sql .= '"' . strtoupper($key) . '" = sysdate,';
} else {
$bind = 't_' . $key;
$binds[$bind] = $val;
$sql .= '"' . strtoupper($key) . '" = :' . $bind . ',';
}
}
}
$sql = substr($sql,0,-1);
$sql .= " WHERE " . $this->tablePrimaryKey . " = '" . $this->fieldVals[$this->tablePrimaryKey] ."'";
} else {
$binds = $fields = $date_fields = [];
if(!empty($this->tablePrimaryKey) && !is_array($this->tablePrimaryKey)) {
$this->fieldVals[$this->tablePrimaryKey] = $this->generateNewPrimaryKey();
}
foreach ($this->fieldVals as $key=>$val) {
$bind = ':t_' . $key;
if (in_array($key, $this->DATE_IDS)) {
$date_fields[] = strtoupper($key);
} else {
$binds[$bind] = $val;
$fields[] = strtoupper($key);
}
}
$sql = 'INSERT INTO ' . $this->tableName . '("' . implode('","', $fields);
if(count($date_fields) >0) {
$sql .= '","';
$sql .= implode('","', $date_fields);
}
$sql.='") VALUES (' . implode(',', array_keys($binds));
if(count($date_fields) >0) {
$cnt=0;
foreach($date_fields as $date) {
$cnt++;
if(preg_match('/NULL/i', $this->fieldVals[strtolower($date)], $result)) {
$sql .= ",NULL";
} elseif(isset($this->fieldVals[strtolower($date)])) {
$sql .= ",TO_DATE('" . (new DateTime($this->fieldVals[strtolower($date)]))->format("Y-M-d H:i:s") . "', 'yyyy/mm/dd hh24:mi:ss')";
} else {
$sql .= ",sysdate";
}
}
}
$sql .= ')';
}
$this->oiDb->parse($sql, $binds);
return $this->oiDb->execute();
}
I run $result = $oiRequests->hydrate($reportingRequest)->persist();. $reportingRequest is key,value pair of columns/values. $result contains resource id. $oiRequests is my model.
I have tried
$num_rows = oci_fetch_assoc ($result);
print_r($num_rows);
returns
Warning: oci_fetch_assoc(): ORA-24374: define not done before fetch or execute and fetch in /var/SP/oiadm/docroot/dev/uddins/requestportal/requestportal_ajax.php on line 65

Most of the OCI functions return false on error. This means you can do a simple check on the return value and, if it's false, call oci_error().
For the specific case of checking if an INSERT statement worked you can reference the example code for oci_commit(). The relevant part of that example is duplicated here:
// The OCI_NO_AUTO_COMMIT flag tells Oracle not to commit the INSERT immediately
// Use OCI_DEFAULT as the flag for PHP <= 5.3.1. The two flags are equivalent
$r = oci_execute($stid, OCI_NO_AUTO_COMMIT);
if (!$r) {
$e = oci_error($stid);
trigger_error(htmlentities($e['message']), E_USER_ERROR);
}
