PHP 8.3.4 Released!

pg_last_error

(PHP 4 >= 4.2.0, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

pg_last_errorGet the last error message string of a connection

Descrição

pg_last_error(?PgSql\Connection $connection = null): string

pg_last_error() returns the last error message for a given connection.

Error messages may be overwritten by internal PostgreSQL (libpq) function calls. It may not return an appropriate error message if multiple errors occur inside a PostgreSQL module function.

Use pg_result_error(), pg_result_error_field(), pg_result_status() and pg_connection_status() for better error handling.

Nota:

This function used to be called pg_errormessage().

Parâmetros

connection

Uma instância de PgSql\Connection. Quando o parâmetro connection for null, a conexão padrão será usada. A conexão padrão é a última conexão feita por pg_connect() ou pg_pconnect().

Aviso

A partir do PHP 8.1.0, usar a conexão padrão tornou-se defasado.

Valor Retornado

A string containing the last error message on the given connection.

Registro de Alterações

Versão Descrição
8.1.0 O parâmetro connection agora espera uma instância de PgSql\Connection; anteriormente, um resource era esperado.

From a practical view there are two types of error messages when using transactions:

-"Normal" errors: in this case, the application should stop the current process and show an error message to the user.

-Deadlock errors. This shows that the deadlock detection process of PostgreSQL found a circle of dependency, and broke it by rolling back the transaction in one of the processes, which gets this error msg. In this case, the application should not stop, but repeat the transaction.

I found no discrete way to find out which case are we dealing with. This interface doesn't support error codes, so we have to search for patterns in the message text.

Here is an example for PostgreSQL database connection class. It throws a PostgresException on "normal" errors, and DependencyException in the case of a broken deadlock, when we have to repeat the transaction.

postgres.php:
<?php
class PostgresException extends Exception {
function
__construct($msg) { parent::__construct($msg); }
}

class
DependencyException extends PostgresException {
function
__construct() { parent::__construct("deadlock"); }
}

class
pg {
public static
$connection;

private static function
connect() {
self::$connection = @pg_connect("dbname=foodb user=foouser password=foopasswd");
if (
self::$connection === FALSE) {
throw(new
PostgresException("Can't connect to database server."));
}
}

public static function
query($sql) {
if (!isset(
self::$connection)) {
self::connect();
}

$result = @pg_query(self::$connection, $sql);
if (
$result === FALSE) {
$error = pg_last_error(self::$connection);
if (
stripos($error, "deadlock detected") !== false) throw(new DependencyException());

throw(new
PostgresException($error.": ".$sql));
}

$out = array();
while ( (
$d = pg_fetch_assoc($result)) !== FALSE) {
$out[] = $d;
}

return
$out;
}
}
?>

It should be used in this way:

test.php:
<?php
include("postgres.php");

do {
$repeat = false;
try {
pg::query("begin");

...

$result = pg::query("SELECT * FROM public.kitten");

...

pg::query("commit");
}
catch (
DependencyException $e) {
pg::query("rollback");
$repeat = true;
}
} while (
$repeat);
?>

The normal errors should be caught at the frontend.
