MySQL Functions (PDO_MYSQL)

The SSL options are silently ignored in PHP 5.3.8, see https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=55870
Looks like it's addressed upstream, I just want to save others the hour and a half I just wasted :)

Today's PHP snapshot now has SSL support for PDO. Follow the directions here ( http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/secure-create-certs.html ) to set up MySQL and then use the following connection options:

<?php
$pdo = new PDO(
    'mysql:host=hostname;dbname=ssldb',
    'username',
    'password',
    array(
        PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_SSL_KEY    =>'/path/to/client-key.pem',
        PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_SSL_CERT=>'/path/to/client-cert.pem',
        PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_SSL_CA    =>'/path/to/ca-cert.pem'
    )
);
?>

SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 2014 Cannot execute queries while other unbuffered queries are active. ...
After spending hours trying to track down why we were getting this error on a new server, after the same code ran fine on other servers, we found the problem to be an old MySQL _client_ library running on our web server, and a latest-version MySQL _server_ running on the database server's box.
Upgraded the MySQL client on the web server to the current revision and the problem went away.

SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 2014 Cannot execute queries while other unbuffered queries are active. ...

This one can be a royal pain to deal with.  Never stack statements to be executed in one go.  Nobody ever mentions this possibility in all the posts I've seen dealing with this error.

This example is a Zend Framework example but the theory is the same.

As in:

<?php
$sql = <<<____SQL
     CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `ticket_hist` (
       `tid` int(11) NOT NULL,
       `trqform` varchar(40) NOT NULL,
       `trsform` varchar(40) NOT NULL,
       `tgen` datetime NOT NULL,
       `tterm` datetime,
       `tstatus` tinyint(1) NOT NULL
     ) ENGINE=ARCHIVE COMMENT='ticket archive';
     CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `request_hist` (
       `rqid` int(11) NOT NULL,
       `rqtid` int(11) NOT NULL,
       `rqsid` int(11) NOT NULL,
       `rqdate` datetime NOT NULL,
       `rqcode` tinyint(1) NOT NULL,
       `rssid` int(11) NOT NULL,
       `rsdate` datetime,
       `rscode` tinyint(1)
     ) ENGINE=ARCHIVE COMMENT='request archive';
     CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `relay_hist` (
       `rqid` int(5) NOT NULL,
       `sdesc` varchar(40) NOT NULL,
       `rqemail` varchar(40) NOT NULL,
       `sid` int(11) NOT NULL,
       `rlsid` int(11) NOT NULL,
       `dcode` varchar(5) NOT NULL
     ) ENGINE=ARCHIVE COMMENT='relay archive';
____SQL;
$result = $this->db->getConnection()->exec($sql);
?>

This will run fine but PDO will balk with the 'unbuffered' error if you follow this with another query.

Instead do:

<?php
$sql = <<<____SQL
     CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `ticket_hist` (
       `tid` int(11) NOT NULL,
       `trqform` varchar(40) NOT NULL,
       `trsform` varchar(40) NOT NULL,
       `tgen` datetime NOT NULL,
       `tterm` datetime,
       `tstatus` tinyint(1) NOT NULL
     ) ENGINE=ARCHIVE COMMENT='ticket archive';
____SQL;
$result = $this->db->getConnection()->exec($sql);

$sql = <<<____SQL
     CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `request_hist` (
       `rqid` int(11) NOT NULL,
       `rqtid` int(11) NOT NULL,
       `rqsid` int(11) NOT NULL,
       `rqdate` datetime NOT NULL,
       `rqcode` tinyint(1) NOT NULL,
       `rssid` int(11) NOT NULL,
       `rsdate` datetime,
       `rscode` tinyint(1)
     ) ENGINE=ARCHIVE COMMENT='request archive';
____SQL;
$result = $this->db->getConnection()->exec($sql);

$sql = <<<____SQL
     CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `relay_hist` (
       `rqid` int(5) NOT NULL,
       `sdesc` varchar(40) NOT NULL,
       `rqemail` varchar(40) NOT NULL,
       `sid` int(11) NOT NULL,
       `rlsid` int(11) NOT NULL,
       `dcode` varchar(5) NOT NULL
     ) ENGINE=ARCHIVE COMMENT='relay archive';
____SQL;
$result = $this->db->getConnection()->exec($sql);
?>

Chopping it into individual queries fixes the problem.

On Windows, with Apache, it would not load php_pdo_mysql.dll until I put libmysql.dll in Apache's dll path (e.g. apache/bin)

I have been getting the error below when performing multiple queries within a single page.

Setting the attribute below did not seem to work for me.

So building on previous example i am initilizing my stmt  variable on every query and a fetch all into an array. Seems to be working for me.

Error:
PDO Error 1.1: Array ( [0] => xxx[1] => yyy[2] => Lost connection to MySQL server during query )

Fix:

(PDO::setAttribute("PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_USE_BUFFERED_QUERY", true);)

<?

try {
        $dbh = new PDO('mysql:host=xxx;port=xxx;dbname=xxx', 'xxx', 'xxx', array( PDO::ATTR_PERSISTENT => false));
 $stmt = $dbh->prepare("CALL getname()");

        // call the stored procedure
        $stmt->execute();
      // fetch all rows into an array.
       $rows = $stmt->fetchAll();
       foreach ($rows as $rs) 
    {
          $id = $rs['id'];
         }
//initilise the statement
unset($stmt);
$stmt = $dbh->prepare("call secondprocedure(?);");
$stmt->bindValue(1, $id);
if ( ! $stmt->execute() )
{
    echo "PDO Error 1.1:\n";
    print_r($stmt->errorInfo());
    exit;
}
unset($stmt);
} catch (PDOException $e) {
        print "Error!: " . $e->getMessage() . "<br/>";
        die();
    }
?>

Almost correct. It should be:
PDO::setAttribute(PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_USE_BUFFERED_QUERY, true);
so, without the quotes.
otherwise it still won't work :)

Sure there is, just do something like this:
if ($sth = $pdo->prepare($sql)) {
$sth->execute($values);
$sth->fetch();
// get count of rows in result set
if ($sth_rc = $this->getDataset()->query('SELECT FOUND_ROWS()')) {
$row_count = $sth_rc->fetchColumn(0);
}
}

A note for the eager:
There is no way how to get returned row count from an executed prepared statement without fetching the rows.

davey at php dot net (2007-06-06 13:46:51)

To use "PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_USE_BUFFERED_QUERY" you should call
PDO::setAttribute("PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_USE_BUFFERED_QUERY", true);
It will not work when passed into PDO::prepare()

PDO is much better option for calling procedures, views or triggers of mysql 5.x versions from PHP instead of using mysqli extension. Following is a simple demo script which can help anybody on how to call and use mysql procedures through php
try {
$dbh = new PDO('mysql:host=xxx;port=xxx;dbname=xxx', 'xxx', 'xxx', array( PDO::ATTR_PERSISTENT => false));
$stmt = $dbh->prepare("CALL getname()");
// call the stored procedure
$stmt->execute();
echo "<B>outputting...</B><BR>";
while ($rs = $stmt->fetch(PDO::FETCH_OBJ)) {
echo "output: ".$rs->name."<BR>";
}
echo "<BR><B>".date("r")."</B>";

} catch (PDOException $e) {
print "Error!: " . $e->getMessage() . "<br/>";
die();
}
