#19884 [Bgs->Opn]: Functions close connections

ID: 19884 User updated by: darylm@magiasoftware.com Reported By: darylm@magiasoftware.com -Status: Bogus +Status: Open Bug Type: MySQL related Operating System: FreeBSD && XP PHP Version: 4.2.3 New Comment: I open a connection to mysql ($conn) for use in my program. Then I call a function (FuncName) that begins with the line (global $conn). Even though there is no mysql_close($conn) statement when the function returns I no longer have a mysql connection. This causes subsequent database queries to return "mysql resource error". Therefore, it appears as though the mysql connection is being closed by the function.

Thank you for your interest in PHP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-10-13 00:54:19] darylm@magiasoftware.com I have many functions that use a mysql_result_resource that is declared global (i.e. global $mysql_link). For some reason after a call to those functions my mysql_connection disappears/is closed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=19884&edit=1
