From: Nico dot Laus dot 2001 at gmx dot de Operating system: Linux 2.6.8.1 PHP version: 5.0.1 PHP Bug Type: MySQLi related Bug description: connecting to MySQL with wrong data cannot be checked with mysqli_connect()
Description: ------------ given the example below from the mysqli documentation, I tried to connect to my MySQL server with wrong data to see, what happens, if the connection really fails. unfortunately the constructor does trigger a WARNING itself and does not return FALSE, as documented. The mysqli_connect_errno() does only return 0 and even the $mysqli->errno variable does not have any value. So I cannot find out, if the connect really has failed or not. I'm using MySQL 4.1.4 Reproduce code: --------------- $mysqli = new mysqli("localhost", "my_user", "my_password", "world"); /* check connection */ if (mysqli_connect_errno()) { printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error()); exit(); } Expected result: ---------------- Connect failed: <error> Actual result: -------------- -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=30051&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30051&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30051&r=trysnapshot50 Try a CVS snapshot (php5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30051&r=trysnapshot51 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30051&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30051&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30051&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30051&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30051&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30051&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30051&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30051&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30051&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30051&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30051&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30051&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30051&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30051&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30051&r=float MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=30051&r=mysqlcfg
