PHP MySQLi select function not execute - php

I'm trying to call my function, but she's wrong.
I believe it is in connection variable.
Connection:
$conn = mysqli_connect('','','', '');
if(mysqli_connect_errno()) {
header("Location: error.php");
exit();
}
Function:
function t_car($id) {
global $conn;
$s_t_car = "SELECT *
FROM t_car
WHERE session='$id'";
$s_t_car_return = mysqli_query($conn, $s_t_car) or die("Erro SQL.".mysqli_error());
return $s_t_car_return;
}
Call Function:
$s_t_car_return = t_car($conn, $_SESSION['session_client']);
if(mysqli_num_rows($s_t_car_return )!=0) {
while($r_t_car = mysqli_fetch_array($s_t_car_return )) {
}
}
Error:
Catchable fatal error: Object of class mysqli could not be converted to string

At first you need to enter your settings from your MySQL server (mysql db).
$connection = mysqli_connect("HOSTNAME","USERNAME", "PASSWORD","DATABASE");
You can then use an if statement to check if the connection to the server has been made, if so, continue execution of following code, otherwise die();
If you want to fetch the data see below here:
$res = $connection->query("SELECT finger FROM hand WHERE index = 3");
while($row = $res->fetch_array())
{
print_r($row);
}

mysqli_query() returns a result. You have to fetch the result to do something with it.
$res = mysqli_query($conn, $s_t_car) or die("...");
$s_t_car_return = mysqli_fetch_row($res);

Function fetch() when I want to check [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
Why does this PDO statement silently fail?
(2 answers)
Closed 2 years ago.
I receive this error:
Fatal error: Call to a member function fetch() on boolean in
C:\xampp\htdocs\repo\generator\model\database.php on line 34
When I run this code:
class database
{
private $user = 'root';
private $pass = '';
public $pdo;
public function connect() {
try {
$this->pdo = new PDO('mysql:host=localhost; dbname=generatordatabase', $this->user, $this->pass);
echo 'Połączenie nawiązane!';
}
catch(PDOException $e) {
echo 'Połączenie nie mogło zostać utworzone: ' . $e->getMessage();
}
}
public function createTable() {
$q = $this->pdo -> query('SELECT * FROM article');
while($row = $q->fetch()) {
echo $row['id'].' ';
}
$q->closeCursor();
}
}
?>
As per the PHP manual for PDO::query
PDO::query() returns a PDOStatement object, or FALSE on failure.
It looks like your query is failing (on line 33) and thus returning a BOOLEAN (false), likely because at that point in execution, PDO has not connected to a database that contains a table called article. In the connect() method I see that it tries to connect to a db called 'generatordatabase'; ensure this connection is being made prior to calling createTable(), otherwise ensure that it contains a table called 'article'.
I would recommend adding some more code examples, for instance the code that calls this class/method before the error is triggered.
Some error handling will help you avoid issues like this:
$q = $this->pdo->query('SELECT * FROM article');
//error case
if(!$q)
{
die("Execute query error, because: ". print_r($this->pdo->errorInfo(),true) );
}
//success case
else{
//continue flow
}
I'm not sure wheatear this is exactly the error I struggled with, but my error was due to my $con variable, I used a single $con for 2 SQL statements, for example:
$con = new mysqli($host,$username,$password,$database);
$sql = "SELECT name FROM users WHERE email = '$email'";
$stm = $con->prepare($sql);
$stm->execute();
and
$sql1 = "INSERT INTO posts
VALUES('$email','$body')";
$stm1 = $con->prepare($sql1);
if ($stm1->execute()) {
I should have done:
$con = new mysqli($host,$username,$password,$database);
$sql = "SELECT name FROM users WHERE email = '$email'";
$stm = $con->prepare($sql);
$stm->execute();
and
$con1 = new mysqli($host,$username,$password,$database);
$sql1 = "INSERT INTO posts
VALUES('$email','$body')";
$stm1 = $con1->prepare($sql1);
$stm1->execute()

how do i create a php function to echo out mysql data, a function that can be reused?

I need to write a PHP function to echo out MySQL rows as I give it the SQL query I want to be executed as the function argument. I have tried out the following code but it is giving me an undefined index error
function runQuery($query) {
$conn = mysqli_connect('localhost', 'root', '', 'mydb');
$result = mysqli_query($conn,$query);
while($row=mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$resultset[] = $row;
}
if(!empty($resultset))
return $resultset;
the code I am using to call the function is;
runQuery(SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE id='5')
echo $resultset['name'];
this, however, gives me this error, undefined index 'resultset' on line 25. any kind assistance would be appreciated
You dont have a $resultset in the scope of where you call the function. The function creates one, but that is only visible inside the function.
You will also have to put QUOTES around the query, you are passing a string there so it needs to be quoted.
Your errors should have generated quite a few error messages, if you were not getting them I have added 4 lines of code you should add while testing code for example if you are testing on a LIVE server with error reporting turned off.
You should also change the function to ensure you always return something
So amend the call to
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
ini_set('log_errors',1);
error_reporting(E_ALL);
mysqli_report(MYSQLI_REPORT_ERROR | MYSQLI_REPORT_STRICT);
function runQuery($conn, $query) {
$resultset = [];
$result = mysqli_query($conn,$query);
while($row=mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$resultset[] = $row;
}
return $resultset;
}
$resultset = runQuery($conn, "SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE id='5'");
// as result will now be a multidimentional array
// you will need to loop over that to get each returned row
foreach ( $resultset as $row ) {
echo $row['name'];
}
AFTER your edit there is another error
$conn is not created inside the function, so will be invisible in the function code unless passed as a parameter to the function (there is another way but lets not get into the bad habit of using global variables)
First, your code is probably vulnerable to SQL Injection. Please take care of that, by using prepared statements for instance.
https://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_injection.asp
https://websitebeaver.com/prepared-statements-in-php-mysqli-to-prevent-sql-injection
Other than that, you do not assign the return value of your function to a variable. You cannot use the $resultset defined in the function scope outside the function, as it is a different scope. Try the following:
$resultset = runQuery("SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE id='5'")
echo $resultset['name'];
I built a similar function recently - here is my code
function returnSQL($conn, $nameSql) {
$result = mysqli_query($conn, $nameSql);
if (!$result) {
return 0;
}
while ($res = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$data[] = $res;
}
return $data;
}
The connection is setup outside the function and passed in as an argument along with the sql like this...
$conn = mysqli_connect($servername, $username, $password, $DBName);
if (!$conn) {
echo 'Failed to connect to database :- ' . $DBName . '<br>';
die();
}
$sql = "SELECT * FROM table";
$data = returnSQL($conn, $sql);
I'm no expert, but this works for me :)
What I notice from your code is that you are trying to access $resultset outside of the function it is declared in and I think it is not available as a global variable - perhaps it should be something like:
$returnValue = runQuery(SQL statement);
// $returnValue is assigned the array returned from runQuery()
echo $returnValue['name'];

Fatal error: Call to undefined method MDB2_Error::execute() on line 30 (SQLyog)

I currently working on dashboard using PHP. I need to fetch data from database inside SQLyog, and transfer it into a graph. The problem is I keep getting this error; Fatal error: Call to undefined method MDB2_Error::execute() on line 30 in the class coding. The error is on $res = $query->execute($data); Can someone help me with my coding?
Here is the code for class.
<?php
class fetch_ranking extends MDB2{
var $con;
var $tbl_user;
var $tbl_isi_scopus_webo;
function fetch_ranking ($dsn) {
$this->con =& MDB2::singleton($dsn, $options=null);
//echo $this->con->getMessage();
if (PEAR::isError($this->con)) {
die($this->con->getMessage());
}
$this->tbl_user = 'user';
$this->tbl_isi_scopus_webo = 'ISI_SCOPUS_WEBO';
}
function fetch_webojuly16(){
$types = array();
$sql = "select university, criteria_rank as presence
from isi_scopus_webo
where month='july'
and year='2016'
group by university" ;
$query = $this->con->prepare($sql,$types,MDB2_PREPARE_RESULT);
$data = array();
$res = $query->execute($data);
if (PEAR::isError($res)) {
die($res->getMessage());
}
$this->con->setFetchMode(MDB2_FETCHMODE_ASSOC);
$valrec = $res->fetchAll();
return $valrec;
}
}?>
And this is for the graph.
<?php
require_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/config/siteconf.php');
require_once($basehome.'/config/default.php');
require_once($basedir.'/mod/ppsg/dsn.php');
require_once($basehome.'/mod/ppsg/class/fetch_data_from_db_isi_scopus_webo.php');
$current_year = date('Y', strtotime(date('Y')));
//$fhObj = new fetch_ranking($ranking);
$hostname="192.168.111.55";
$username="devopt";
$password="G0devopt$";
$dbname="ranking";
//Connect to the database
$connection = mysql_connect($hostname, $username, $password)
or die("Unable to connect to MySQL");
echo "Connected to MySQL<br>";
mysql_select_db($dbname, $connection)
or die("Could not select examples");
$xdata=array();
$ydata=array();
$xdata['name'] = 'PRESENCE';
$ydata['name'] = 'UNIVERSITY';
$ydata['color'] = '#ABEBC6';
//Call to a member function fetch_webojuly16() on a non-object
$webojuly16 = $fhObj->fetch_webojuly16();
foreach($webojuly16 as $wj16){
$xdata['data'][] = $wj16['presence'];
$ydata['data'][] = $wj16['university'];
}
$json_arr = array($xdata,$ydata);
print json_encode($json_arr, JSON_NUMERIC_CHECK);
?>
This is the coding for graph
The $this->con->prepare($sql,$types,MDB2_PREPARE_RESULT); call might return a MDB2_Error object in case the prepare() statement fails, as documented on http://pear.php.net/package/MDB2/docs/latest/MDB2/MDB2_Driver_Common.html#methodprepare. You have to check with PEAR::isError if that is the case or not. In your case it is, so you cannot call $res = $query->execute($data); on a MDB2_Error object, and that's exactly what the error message is telling you.
Add the if statement to check for errors on the $query variable and check the error messages you get.

Why do i get more results from my mysql query in php then what i ask for?

I am getting return values that do not exist in my current database. Even if i change my query the return array stays the same but missing values. How can this be what did i do wrong?
My MYSQL server version is 10.0.22 and this server gives me the correct result.
So the issue must be in PHP.
My code:
$select_query = "SELECT process_state.UID
FROM process_state
WHERE process_state.UpdateTimestamp > \"[given time]\"";
$result = mysql_query($select_query, $link_identifier);
var_dump($result);
Result:
array(1) {
[1]=> array(9) {
["UID"]=> string(1) "1"
["CreationTimestamp"]=> NULL
["UpdateTimestamp"]=> NULL
["ProcessState"]=> NULL
}
}
Solution:
I have found this code somewhere in my program. The program used the same name ass mine. This function turns the MYSQL result into a array. This happens between the result view and my script. This was done to make the result readable.
parent::processUpdatedAfter($date);
Function:
public function processUpdatedAfter($date)
{
$result = parent::processUpdatedAfter($date);
$array = Array();
if($result != false)
{
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC)) {
$array[$row["UID"]]["UID"] = $row["UID"];
$array[$row["UID"]]["CreationTimestamp"] = $row["CreationTimestamp"];
$array[$row["UID"]]["UpdateTimestamp"] = $row["UpdateTimestamp"];
$array[$row["UID"]]["ProcessState"] = $row["ProcessState"];
}
return $array;
}
return false;
}
I edited this and my script works fine now thanks for all the help.
Note that, var_dump($result); will only return the resource not data.
You need to mysql_fetch_* for getting records.
Example with MYSQLi Object Oriented:
<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "username";
$password = "password";
$dbname = "myDB";
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
$sql = "SELECT process_state.UID
FROM process_state
WHERE process_state.UpdateTimestamp > \"[given time]\"";
$result = $conn->query($sql);
if ($result->num_rows > 0) {
/* fetch associative array */
while ($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
echo $row['UID'];
}
}
else
{
echo "No record found";
}
$conn->close();
?>
Side Note: i suggest you to use mysqli_* or PDO because mysql_* is deprecated and closed in PHP 7.
You are var_dumping a database resource handle and not the data you queried
You must use some sort of fetching process to actually retrieve that data generated by your query.
$ts = '2016-09-20 08:56:43';
$select_query = "SELECT process_state.UID
FROM process_state
WHERE process_state.UpdateTimestamp > '$ts'";
$result = mysql_query($select_query, $link_identifier);
// did the query work or is there an error in it
if ( !$result ) {
// query failed, better look at the error message
echo mysql_error($link_identifier);
exit;
}
// test we have some results
echo 'Query Produced ' . mysql_num_rows($result) . '<br>';
// in a while loop if more than one row might be returned
while( $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result) ) {
echo $row['UID'] . '<br>';
}
However I have to mention Every time you use the mysql_
database extension in new code
a Kitten is strangled somewhere in the world it is deprecated and has been for years and is gone for ever in PHP7.
If you are just learning PHP, spend your energies learning the PDO or mysqli database extensions.
Start here
$select_query = "SELECT `UID` FROM `process_state ` WHERE `UpdateTimestamp` > \"[given time]\" ORDER BY UID DESC ";
$result = mysql_query($select_query, $link_identifier);
var_dump($result);
Try this hope it will works

PHP MYSQL Error when calling multiple Stored Procedures

I am having difficulty calling and displaying the content when I call a procedure more than once in a page. I am trying to display two separate record sets from two different SP calls for MYSQL. I can display the first call but the second fails. I'm not sure what I am doing wrong but perhaps someone can kind help?
I keep getting the error when I call the second procedure:
Error calling SPCommands out of sync; you can't run this command now
I'm running on windows
Code below... PHP
// First call to SP
$page = 2;
$section = 1;
include("DatabaseConnection.php"); //general connection - works fine
$sql = 'CALL GetPageContent("'.$page.'", "'.$section.'")';
$result = mysqli_query($conn, $sql) or die('Error calling SP' .mysqli_error($conn));
while($row=mysqli_fetch_assoc($result))
{
// DO STUFF< REMOVED TO MAKE READING CLEARER
}
mysqli_free_result($result);
//SECOND CALL BELOW
$section = 2; // change parameter for different results
$sql = 'CALL GetPageContent("'.$page.'", "'.$section.'")';
$result = mysqli_query($conn, $sql) or die('Error calling SP' .mysqli_error($conn));
while($row=mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
// DO STUFF< REMOVED TO MAKE READING CLEARER
}
To fix the problem, remember to call the next_result() function on the mysqli object after each stored procedure call. See example below:
<?php
// New Connection
$db = new mysqli('localhost','user','pass','database');
// Check for errors
if(mysqli_connect_errno()){
echo mysqli_connect_error();
}
// 1st Query
$result = $db->query("call getUsers()");
if($result){
// Cycle through results
while ($row = $result->fetch_object()){
$user_arr[] = $row;
}
// Free result set
$result->close();
$db->next_result();
}
// 2nd Query
$result = $db->query("call getGroups()");
if($result){
// Cycle through results
while ($row = $result->fetch_object()){
$group_arr[] = $row;
}
// Free result set
$result->close();
$db->next_result();
}
else echo($db->error);
// Close connection
$db->close();
?>
if you are calling more than one procedure on a single script page, you should call mysqli_next_result($connection_link) before calling another procedure.
consider below sample code block:
<?php
$data = new \stdClass();
require('./controller/dbController.php');
$query = 'CALL getActiveProductCount()';
$result = mysqli_query($con, $query);
$result = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result);
$data->active_product = $result['count'];
mysqli_next_result($con); // required to perform before calling the procedure again
$query = 'CALL getPurchasedProductCount()';
$result = mysqli_query($con, $query);
$result = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result);
$data->purchased = $result['count'];
mysqli_next_result($con);
