Re: PHP & Postgres - query not writing to database.

Carol Walter <walterc@xxxxxxxxxxx> · Mon, 11 May 2009 17:07:55 -0400

To all who helped.

Thank you very much.  I found the problem.  There is a leading blank  
on the last name field that I couldn't see.  It was coming from my  
program code.

Thanks for all your help.

I have copied the queries into psql and wrapped them in a BEGIN and

I'd suggest you to copy the echoed queries and run them directly in  
terminal (if you have access). Also if you have remote access to  
the database and can use tools like pgAdmin or Navicat, that could  
help you with testing. Or send me the table structure and I'll try  
them myself ;)

Hello,

I have a PHP program that contains a number of postgres queries.   
At the end of the program, it needs to write data to a database.   
You can see the code that I'm using below.  I have "die" clauses  
on all the queries and I have the program echoing the queries that  
it runs to the screen.  The "die" clause does not execute.  The  
queries are echoed to the screen, but nothing is being written to  
the database.  There don't appear to be any errors in the postgres  
log or the php log.  Is there a function that I can use that will  
tell me exactly what is going on here?  If there is, can you give  
me the syntax?

Thanks in advance for your time.

Carol

P.S.  This PHP 5 and PostgreSQL 8.3.6 on Solaris 10.

I've written a query that needs to insert data into two base  
tables and a bridge table.  The code looks like...

    /*   Echo data for database to the screen                   */
       echo"<p> Contact Locator: $cont_loc</p>";
       echo"<p> Contact Type Rank: $cont_rank</p>";
          echo"<p> Contact Info Type: $contact_type</p>";
          echo"<p> New name string: $f_name_new</p>";
          echo"<p> New name string: $m_name_new</p>";
       echo"<p> New name string: $l_name_new</p>";
       echo"<p> New ivl web string: $ivl_web_peop</p>";
       echo"<p> New cns_web string: $cns_web_peop</p>";
          echo"<p> New contact rank string: $cont_rank</p>";
       echo"<p> New contact locator string: $cont_loc</p>";
        echo"<p> New contact item string: $contact_info1</p>";
       echo"<p> New contact type string: $contact_type</p>";
