mysqli - Problem querying MySQL DB with PHP using MAMP (on Mac) -
i'm having problem querying mysql db php
i'm using mamp 1.9.4 on mac os 10.6.6
the connections seems work
$dbc = mysqli_connect('localhost', 'root', 'password', 'dbname') or die('error connecting mysql server.');
but whenever run query die error...
$query = "insert table_name (first_name, last_name) values ('john', 'doe')"; $result = mysqli_query($dbc, $query) or die('error querying database.');
any ideas?? mamp?
don't die fixed error message are. that's useless, equivalent of saying "something happened!"
instead, try:
$result = mysqli_query(...) or die("mysql error: " . mysqli_error());
which spit out exact reason there problem.
