Readers,

Forgive the simplicity, but having problems to start:

<?php
	try {
		$dbconnect = new PDO(pgsql:host=localhost; dbname=cpacweb; user=someuser; password=somepassword);
		}
	catch(PDOException $e) {
		print "Error!: " . $e->getMessage() . "<br/>";
		die();
		}

	$query = "SELECT * FROM somedata";
	$result = pg_exec($dbconnect, $query);
	echo "Number of rows: " . pg_numrows($result);
	pg_freeresult($result);
	pg_close($dbconnect);
?>

No error message, no print of rows of table. Please what is the error?

I can see 2 obvious issues with this code:

1) The DSN passed to PDO should be a single string, but this is missing quotes in the code above;

2) You are mixing PDO with pg_ functions - this will not work as they are separate extensions. You need to use only 1 or the other - either use PDO, or use pg_ functions.


If you're using PDO on PHP < 8, you'll want to enable the exceptions error reporting mode. See https://phpdelusions.net/pdo#errors (In PHP 8+ the default PDO error reporting mode is already set to exceptions)


For general error reporting in PHP, ensure that the following ini settings are set:

* error_reporting = E_ALL  (report all errors and warnings)
* display_errors = 1  (display errors in output / on the web page)

On production you'll want to set display_errors to 0 and use the log_errors and error_log ini settings to log errors to a file instead as some error messages may contain sensitive information such as passwords or api keys.

For more information on these ini settings see: https://www.php.net/manual/en/errorfunc.configuration.php
