Executing a simple SQL Server stored procedure from php - php

Question

First of all: I did a research on google and stackoverflow, but it does not helped me.
I'm a beginner, so please do not blame me directly by just reading the title and voting me down. Stackoverflow seems to be very aggressive sometimes :(
I'm trying to execute a simple stored procedure from PHP.
Connecting to the database works.
This code also works through a query in SQL Server Management Studio:
Execute SP_TPL_DeleteUser
#ExternalFieldID = 22
Regarding to this manuals: PHP Stored Procedures and SQL Server and MSSQL Bind
I build this lines of code:
$id=22;
$stmt=mssql_init("SP_TPL_DeleteUser", $conn);
mssql_bind($stmt, "#ExternalFieldID", $ExternalFieldID, SQLVARCHAR, false, false, 255);
mssql_execute($stmt);
mssql_free_statement($stmt);
My output is:
( ! ) Fatal error: Call to undefined function mssql_init() in
C:\Users\kians_000\dev\traka\index.php on line 32
Of course I tried playing around, but nothing works :(
I would be thankful for any tips.
Edit:
I can connect to the DB with this:
$serverName = "KIAN-PC";
$connectionInfo = array( "Database"=>"T32Database");
$conn = sqlsrv_connect( $serverName, $connectionInfo);
if( $conn )
{
echo "Connection established.\n";
}
else
{
echo "Connection could not be established.\n";
die( print_r( sqlsrv_errors(), true));
}
But a simple query like this:
$version = mssql_query('SELECT * FROM [T32Database].[dbo].[TUsers]');
$row = mssql_fetch_array($version);
echo $row[0];
Produces this output:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function mssql_query() in C:\Users\kians_000\dev\traka\index.php on line 42
phpinfo show me this:
sqlsrv
sqlsrv support enabled
Directive Local Value Master Value
sqlsrv.ClientBufferMaxKBSize 10240 10240 sqlsrv.LogSeverity 0 0
sqlsrv.LogSubsystems 0 0 sqlsrv.WarningsReturnAsErrors On On
Edit 3:
I tried out all drivers. This is the only one that works.
Maybe something with my source is wrong.
<?php
//-----------------------------------------------
// Connect to SQL Server DB
//-----------------------------------------------
$serverName = "KIAN-PC";
$connectionInfo = array( "Database"=>"T32Database");
$conn = sqlsrv_connect( $serverName, $connectionInfo);
if( $conn )
{
echo "Connection established.\n";
}
else
{
echo "Connection could not be established.\n";
die( print_r( sqlsrv_errors(), true));
}
//-----------------------------------------------
// Perform operations with connection.
//-----------------------------------------------
$version = mssql_query('SELECT * FROM [T32Database].[dbo].[TUsers]');
$row = mssql_fetch_array($version);
echo $row[0];
/* Close the connection. */
sqlsrv_close( $conn);
?>
My output is:
Connection established. ( ! ) Fatal error: Call to undefined function
mssql_query() in C:\Users\kians_000\dev\traka\index.php on line 42

Answer 1

Instead of binding try calling your procedure as a query:
mssql_query('exec SP_TPL_DeleteUser #ExternalFieldID = ' . $ExternalFieldID, $con);

Answer 2

I mixed together two different drivers.
There are mssql and sqlsrv drivers.
Check if the statements begin with mssql_ or sqlsrv_
I use MSSQL Express 2012 and it seems like the mssql drivers aren't used anyway.
This here works now (as a hello world):
<?php
//-----------------------------------------------
// Connect to MSSQL-DB
//-----------------------------------------------
$serverName = "KIAN-PC";
$connectionInfo = array( "Database"=>"T32Database");
$conn = sqlsrv_connect( $serverName, $connectionInfo);
if( $conn === false ) {
die( print_r( sqlsrv_errors(), true));
}
//-----------------------------------------------
// Perform operations with connection.
//-----------------------------------------------
if( $client_info = sqlsrv_client_info( $conn)) {
foreach( $client_info as $key => $value) {
echo $key.": ".$value."<br />";
}
} else {
echo "Error in retrieving client info.<br />";
}
/* Close the connection. */
sqlsrv_close( $conn);
?>
Thanks for everybodys help anyway!

If you're using WAMP, make sure that the mssql module is enabled. It will have a checkmark next to its name in the context menu if it is.
