Hi, i just upgrade from 2.1.6 to 2.2.1 with the phar installer. i think everyhing went fine. something must have changed with adodb though. after a bit of head scratching (nothing in any error logs) I narrowed it down to this line

Code: Select all

 $result = $db->Execute($query);

Edit: Not true, see next post

Here the whole block. The $count test (in this instance) is not really needed, but I have many other plugins that now need reviewing.

Code: Select all

  $config = cmsms()->GetConfig();
  require($config['root_path'].'/ms_config/db.php');
  $osCsid = $_COOKIE["osCsid"];

  $db = ADONewConnection('mysqli');
  $db->Connect($db_host,$db_user,$db_pw,$db_db);
  $query = "SELECT value FROM sessions WHERE sesskey = \"$osCsid\"";

  $result = $db->Execute($query);
  
  $count = $result->RecordCount();
  if ($count > 0) {
    while($result && !$result->EOF) { 
      $data['value'] = $result->fields['value'];
      $result->MoveNext();
    }//end while
  }
  adodb_connect();

HTML output stops when getting to such a plugin with $result->RecordCount(). There's nothing in the php error logs, despite E_ALL. Change log for 2.2 mentions

Implement new database abstraction library that is compatible with (functionality wise) but improves upon adodb-lite.

Do you have any more info on what exactly changed? Why does it fail? As far as I can tell $result->RecordCount() is still a valid function? Thanks

ok, it's not the RecordCount(), it's the connection itself.

Code: Select all

 $config = cmsms()->GetConfig();
  require($config['root_path'].'/ms_config/db.php');

//the config file is found and loaded

Code: Select all

 $db = ADONewConnection('mysqli');
  $db->Connect($db_host,$db_user,$db_pw,$db_db);

//no output for $db->ErrorMsg();
//$db_db holds the correct value for the database i am trying to connect to.

Code: Select all

 $query = "SELECT value FROM sessions WHERE sesskey = 'aaa'";
  $result = $db->Execute($query);

//$db->ErrorMsg(); tells me that table.sessions in CMSMS does not exist. I never connect to the other database but stay with CMSMS db. How do I connect to another database in 2.2?

I noticed that the directory

/lib/adodb_lite/adodbSQL_drivers/

only holds 4 sub directories named postgres, postgres7, postgres8, postgres64 and no mysqli folder. Checksum does not miss this folder, and when I copied the mysqli folder from 2.1.6 it didnt fix the problem. still cannot connect to external DB.

CMSMS 2.2+ no longer uses adodb or adodb-lite. It uses a new database abstraction library that is 'largely' compatible with adodb-lite. i.e: in all of my modules I have not had to change a line of code.

Now. One difference in the API's is in creating connections to the database. You create them by creating a new Connection object using:

\CMSMS\Database\Connection::Initialize()

It is well documented here: https://apidoc.cmsmadesimple.org/classe ... ction.html

Thanks. Could you maybe give an example on how to connect to an external database? I do not understand where/how to pass in the database credentials. i had a look in a few modules but of course they all connect to CMSMS database.

also, does adodb_connect() still work to re-connect? if not, what should i replace it with?

Posted: **Sun Jun 18, 2017 2:52 pm**

I whipped together this quick test in a UDT... took about 2 minutes

Code: Select all

$cs = new \CMSMS\Database\ConnectionSpec;
$cs->type = 'mysqli';
$cs->host = 'localhost';
$cs->dbname = 'wptmp';
$cs->username = 'my_username';
$cs->password = 'my_password';

$db = \CMSMS\Database\Connection::initialize( $cs );
$sql = 'SHOW TABLES';
$list = $db->GetCol($sql);
debug_display($list);

The adodb_connect() function still exists (for compatibility reasons) but is an empty stub.

Because we no longer use globals, it is technically not necessary.

Thanks, much appreciated.
