Returns the numerical value of the error message from previous MySQL operation

mysql_errno

(PHP 4, PHP 5)

mysql_errnoReturns the numerical value of the error message from previous MySQL operation

Warning

This extension is deprecated as of PHP 5.5.0, and will be removed in the future. 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:

Description

int mysql_errno ([ resource $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.

Parameters

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.

Return Values

Returns the error number from the last MySQL function, or 0 (zero) if no error occurred.

Examples

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
