Hello,
I have MySQL 5.1 and PHP 5.2. For some reason PDO is not throwing
exceptions when I give it a broken SQL query. For example:
try {
$stmt = $db->prepare("SELECT * FROM foobar WHERE 1");
} catch(PDOException $e) {
error($e->getMessage());
}
In this example there is no table called 'foobar', so this should give
an error. Yet, it doesn't.
Any ideas why that would happen? Possible causes I can think of:
1) PDO decide to "emulate" prepared statements.
2) PDO has some sort of "errors off" setting.
3) My try-catch statement is wrong.
I doubt it's (1) because I have MySQL 5.1 and PDO is only supposed to
emulate prepared statements for MySQL versions prior to 4.1. And phpinfo
says that I'm running pdo_mysql version 5.1.30.
Btw, $db->exec() and $db->query() also fail to produce an error when I
give them a broken query. That's another reason why I think that the
problem is elsewhere.
Any ideas?
Thank you very much for your help.
Best,
Daniel.
