This PDO prepared statement returns false but does not throw an error

Question

This code does not throw an error but the query fails, that is, the execute method returns false. How could that be?

require_once(\"Abstracts/DBMana         


        

Answer 1

i struggled with this silent insert fail this week. and here's the solution that worked for me. i was not calling commit on the transaction, so the insert was put into the pending state but was never completed on the database - hence no error. this was trickier because the PDR db wrapper in this project is a static class so it doesn't automatically close

solution: make sure to call commit on the PDO handle after the insert / update / delete actions - or on page close.

$PDO->exec("COMMIT;");
