为什么mysqli_connect不工作但mysql_connect是？

Question

Are there any reasons why this might be the case?

Here's the code:

$dbc = mysqli_connect (DB_HOST, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD, DB_NAME);
echo $dbc;
if(!$dbc){
die('could not open a connection'.mysqli_connect_errno() . mysqli_connect_error());
}

Again, if I replace mysqli with mysql I get a returned dbc resource id (I assume that's good). I would like to use mysqli as I hear it's much better/faster. Right now I'm getting error code 2003.

Answer 1

mysql_connect() and mysqli_connect() use two different default ports from the php.ini file. I wouldn't guess that these would be different than the standard default 3306, but worth a check or try adding the path to the host url.

mysqli_connect :

mysqli mysqli_connect ( ... int $port = ini_get(" ") ... )

mysql_connect :

If the PHP directive is undefined (default), then the default value is 'localhost:3306'. In SQL safe mode, this parameter is ignored and value 'localhost:3306' is always used.

Edit: I was wrong because I didn't read the manual page far enough.

I think your connection is fine, but you wouldn't want to check the object it returns as you have above. You'd want to use mysqli_connect_errno() . Below is the example from PHP.net.

 
 
 
  
  $mysqli = new mysqli('localhost', 'my_user', 'my_password', 'my_db'); if (mysqli_connect_error()) { die('Connect Error (' . mysqli_connect_errno() . ') ' . mysqli_connect_error()); }
 
  

OO syntax only: If a connection fails an object is still returned. To check if the connection failed then use either the mysqli_connect_error() function or the mysqli->connect_error property as in the preceding examples.

Answer 2

mysqli_connect和mysql_connect采用不同的参数并返回不同的值。

Answer 3

考虑使用

$dbc= new mysqli(DB_HOST, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD, DB_NAME);
