Example #2 PDO_INFORMIX DSN example using a connection string

To work properly, the DSN connection string must not have line breaks.

<?php

$conexion
= new PDO("informix:host=host.domain.com; service=9800;
    database=common_db; server=ids_server; protocol=onsoctcp;
    EnableScrollableCursors=1"
, "testuser", "tespass");

   
$sql    = "SELECT * FROM test";
   
$prep   = $conexion->prepare($sql);
   
$prep->execute();
   
$result = $prep->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);

   
var_dump($result);

?>

When connect to the Dynamic Informix Server, got this error log in apache's error log file:

[Wed Dec 30 12:44:11 2009] [error] [client 1.1.1.1] PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught exception 'PDOException' with message 'SQLSTATE=HY000, SQLDriverConnect: -11005 [Informix][Informix ODBC Driver]Unspecified System Error =  -11005.' in /opt/webroot/informix.php:5\nStack trace:\n#0 /opt/webroot/informix.php(5): PDO->__construct('informix:host=l...', 'username', 'password')\n#1 {main}\n  thrown in /opt/webroot/informix.php on line 5

you should export correct INFORMIXDIR enviroment variable for root user and restart the web server.

and another error:

[Wed Dec 30 13:10:10 2009] [error] [client 1.1.1.1] PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught exception 'PDOException' with message 'SQLSTATE=01S00, SQLDriverConnect: -11005 [Informix][Informix ODBC Driver]Invalid connection string attribute.' in /opt/webroot/informix.php:5\nStack trace:\n#0 /opt/webroot/informix.php(5): PDO->__construct('informix:host=l...', 'username', 'password')\n#1 {main}\n  thrown in /opt/webroot/informix.php on line 5

you should let your connection string in one line, without line feed.

Bonjour

J'ai appliqué la procédure compilé, installé et charger le php_pdo_inkformix et j'ai utilisé la chaine de connexion suivant :

$bd = new PDO("informix:host=srvinf; service=1526;database=base; server=ol_test; protocol=onsoctcp;EnableScrollableCursors=1", "test", "test");

après éxécution du fichier connexion.php j'ai eu l'erreur :

- Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'PDOException' with message 'could not find driver' in C:\wamp\www\Tests\informix.php on line 5

-PDOException: could not find driver in C:\wamp\www\Tests\informix.php on line 5

Merci de m'assister svp.
