(PHP 4, PHP 5)
mysql_errno — Returns the numerical value of the error message from previous MySQL operation
Suggested alternatives
Use of this extension is discouraged. Instead, the MySQLi or PDO_MySQL extension should be used. See also MySQL: choosing an API guide and related FAQ for more information. Alternatives to this function include:
$link_identifier
= NULL
] )Returns the error number from the last MySQL function.
Errors coming back from the MySQL database backend no longer issue warnings. Instead, use mysql_errno() to retrieve the error code. Note that this function only returns the error code from the most recently executed MySQL function (not including mysql_error() and mysql_errno()), so if you want to use it, make sure you check the value before calling another MySQL function.
link_identifier
The MySQL connection. If the
link identifier is not specified, the last link opened by
mysql_connect() is assumed. If no such link is found, it
will try to create one as if mysql_connect() was called
with no arguments. If no connection is found or established, an
E_WARNING
level error is generated.
Returns the error number from the last MySQL function, or 0 (zero) if no error occurred.
Example #1 mysql_errno() example
<?php
$link = mysql_connect("localhost", "mysql_user", "mysql_password");
if (!mysql_select_db("nonexistentdb", $link)) {
echo mysql_errno($link) . ": " . mysql_error($link). "\n";
}
mysql_select_db("kossu", $link);
if (!mysql_query("SELECT * FROM nonexistenttable", $link)) {
echo mysql_errno($link) . ": " . mysql_error($link) . "\n";
}
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
1049: Unknown database 'nonexistentdb' 1146: Table 'kossu.nonexistenttable' doesn't exist
