Good day, I'm not really familiar with PHP and i get this error when i try to execute my query.
Warning:
Warning: mysqli_stmt::bind_param(): Number of variables doesn't match number of parameters in prepared statement in
/Users/site/userpanel.php on line 10
Code:
$query="SELECT SUM(gebruiker_id) AS totalitems FROM inventory WHERE gebruiker_id = 1";
$stmt = $db->prepare($query);
$stmt->bind_param("s", $items);
$stmt->execute();
$result = $stmt->bind_result($col1);
Thanks in advance!
You have to use a placeholder like this:
$query="SELECT SUM(gebruiker_id) AS totalitems FROM inventory WHERE gebruiker_id = ?";
$stmt = $db->prepare($query);
$stmt->bind_param("s", $items);
$stmt->execute();
$result = $stmt->bind_result($col1);
Sometimes you don't need to bind:
$query="SELECT SUM(gebruiker_id) AS totalitems FROM inventory WHERE gebruiker_id = 1";
$stmt = $db->prepare($query);
//$stmt->bind_param("s", $items);
$stmt->execute();
$result = $stmt->bind_result($col1);
or
$query="SELECT SUM(gebruiker_id) AS totalitems FROM inventory WHERE gebruiker_id = 1";
$stmt = $db->query($query);
$result = $stmt->bind_result($col1);
But if you were trying to bind $items to gebruiker_id then follow #rizier123 answer.

First, according to another SO post, I tried combining the two statements into one.
<?php
$conn->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_EMULATE_PREPARES, 1);
$sql = "UPDATE users SET pass = :password WHERE usrn = :id;
SELECT prim FROM users WHERE usrn = :id;";
$stmt = $conn->prepare($sql);
$stmt->bindParam(":id", $_SESSION["idPersist"]);
$stmt->bindParam(":password", password_hash($_POST["password"], PASSWORD_DEFAULT));
$stmt->execute();
$result = $stmt->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC); //// line 71
?>
However, this kept throwing the error: Fatal error: Uncaught PDOException: SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error on line 71.
I couldn't find any relevant solutions to this issue, so I decided to simply split up the two statements.
<?php
$sql = "UPDATE users SET pass = :password WHERE usrn = :id";
$stmt = $conn->prepare($sql);
$stmt->bindParam(":id", $_SESSION["idPersist"]);
$stmt->bindParam(":password", password_hash($_POST["password"], PASSWORD_DEFAULT));
$stmt->execute();
$sql = "SELECT prim FROM users WHERE usrn = :id";
$stmt = $conn->prepare($sql);
$stmt->bindParam(":id", $_SESSION["idPersist"]);
$stmt->execute();
$result = $stmt->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
$_SESSION["session"] = $result["prim"];
?>
But a var_dump($result) is returning Bool(false), so obviously something is not working right with fetching the result and storing it as a variable, it seems, in both cases.
I'm new to PHP and MySQL, so I'm at a loss right now.
Change this,
$sql = "SELECT prim FROM users WHERE usrn = :id";
$stmt = $conn->prepare($sql);
$stmt->bindParam(":id", $_SESSION["idPersist"]);
$result = $stmt->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
$_SESSION["session"] = $result["prim"];
To this,
$sql = "SELECT prim FROM users WHERE usrn = :id";
$stmt = $conn->prepare($sql);
$stmt->bindParam(":id", $_SESSION["idPersist"]);
$stmt->execute(); // Your problem
$result = $stmt->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
$_SESSION["session"] = $result["prim"];
You are missing the execution of the query.
$stmt = $mysqli->prepare("SELECT `nameData` FROM `accountsDone` WHERE `nameToSearch` = ?");
$stmt->bind_param("s", $query);
$stmt->execute();
$stmt->store_result();
if ($stmt->affected_rows > 0) {
echo "Exists";
}
Instead of echoing out Exists, I want it to echo out nameData. How can I go about doing that?
First of all, if you want only one row then append LIMIT 1 to your SELECT query, like this:
$stmt = $mysqli->prepare("SELECT `nameData` FROM `accountsDone` WHERE `nameToSearch` = ? LIMIT 1");
So there are two approaches to display nameData:
Method(1):
First bind the variable $nameData to the prepared statement, and then fetch the result into this bound variable.
$stmt = $mysqli->prepare("SELECT `nameData` FROM `accountsDone` WHERE `nameToSearch` = ? LIMIT 1");
$stmt->bind_param("s", $query);
$stmt->execute();
$stmt->store_result();
if($stmt->num_rows){
$stmt->bind_result($nameData);
$stmt->fetch();
echo $nameData;
}else{
echo "No result found";
}
Method(2):
First use get_result() method to get the result set from the prepared statement, and then use fetch_array to fetch the result row from the result set.
$stmt = $mysqli->prepare("SELECT `nameData` FROM `accountsDone` WHERE `nameToSearch` = ? LIMIT 1");
$stmt->bind_param("s", $query);
$stmt->execute();
$result = $stmt->get_result();
if($result->num_rows){
$row = $result->fetch_array()
echo $row['nameData'];
}else{
echo "No result found";
}
I think you can below code i hope your query is working fine it returns result properly then you can use below code.
$stmt->bind_result($nameData);
if ($stmt->fetch()) {
printf ("%s\n", $nameData);
}
Note that affected_rows won't do anything useful here.
However, nor you don't need num_rows as well (and therefore store_result too)
$stmt = $mysqli->prepare("SELECT `nameData` FROM `accountsDone` WHERE `nameToSearch` = ?");
$stmt->bind_param("s", $query);
$stmt->execute();
$stmt->bind_result($nameData);
$stmt->fetch();
echo $nameData;
Considering all that hassle, even without useless functions, you may find PDO a way better approach:
$stmt = $pdo->prepare("SELECT `nameData` FROM `accountsDone` WHERE `nameToSearch` = ?");
$stmt->execute($query);
echo->$stmt->fetchColumn();
I always find it difficult to write MySQLi prepared statements, because many functions work differently than in the old way. Right now I am facing a problem regarding fetch_array().
$stmt = $db->prepare("SELECT category_id FROM post_items Where user_id = ?");
$stmt->bind_param('i', $userid);
$result = $stmt->execute();
while ($row = $result->fetch_array()) {
// ...
}
you are trying to fetch the results by
$result = $stmt->execute();
which is not the case. as execute will return you only a boolean value.
do it like.
$stmt = $db->prepare("SELECT category_id FROM post_items Where user_id = ?");
$stmt->bind_param('i', $userid);
$stmt->execute();
$result = $stmt->get_result();
while ($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
//result is in row
}
$stmt->execute(); doesn't return result. You need $stmt->get_result();.
You can rewrite your code like this:
$stmt = $db->prepare("SELECT category_id FROM post_items Where user_id = ?");
$stmt->bind_param('i', $userid);
$stmt->execute();
$result = $stmt->get_result();
foreach($result as $row) {
// ...
}
replace this:
$result = $stmt->execute();
while ($row = $result->fetch_array()) {
by this
$stmt->bind_result($category_id);
while($stmt->fetch()){
$myArray=$category_id;
}
$stmt = $connection->prepare("SELECT id FROM articles WHERE position =? LIMIT 1");
$stmt-> bind_param('i',$call );
$stmt->execute();
$result = $stmt->fetch();
$oldpostid = $result;
$stmt->close();
I don't see anything wrong with it, but it is returning 1 or nothing. $call is set and integer. I tried this too:
$stmt = $connection->prepare("SELECT * FROM articles WHERE position =? LIMIT 1");
$oldpostid = $result['id'];
Assuming this is all working you need to bind the result variables as well. mysqli_stmt_fetch returns a boolean:
$stmt->execute();
$stmt->bind_result($id);
$stmt->fetch();
$oldpostid = $id;
You seem to be mixing mysqli & PDO. The first line is PDO
$stmt = $connection->prepare("SELECT id FROM articles WHERE position =? LIMIT 1");
The next line is mysqli
$stmt-> bind_param('i',$call );
Should be for PDO the unnamed variables in place holder Manual Example 4
$stmt-> bindParam(1,$call );
$stmt->execute();
OR using array
$stmt->execute(array($call));
I have this sequence of code:
$connection = new mysqli('localhost','root','','db-name');
$query = "SELECT * from users where Id = ?";
$stmt = $connection->prepare($query);
$stmt->bind_param("i",$id);
$stmt->execute();
$stmt->bind_result($this->id,$this->cols);
$stmt->fetch();
$stmt->close();
$connection->close();
The problem is that the "SELECT" might give a variable number of columns, which i retain in $this->cols. Is there any possibility to use bind_result with a variable number of parameters?...or any alternative to the solution.
if you are lucky enough to run PHP 5.3+, mysqli_get_result seems what you want.
$stmt->execute();
$result = $stmt->get_result();
$row = $result->fetch_array();
