What is this?
This is a number of answers about warnings, errors, and notices you might encounter while programming PHP and have no clue how to fix them. This is also a Community Wiki, so everyone is invited to participate adding to and maintaining this list.
Why is this?
Questions like "Headers already sent" or "Calling a member of a non-object" pop up frequently on Stack Overflow. The root cause of those questions is always the same. So the answers to those questions typically repeat them and then show the OP which line to change in their particular case. These answers do not add any value to the site because they only apply to the OP's particular code. Other users having the same error cannot easily read the solution out of it because they are too localized. That is sad because once you understood the root cause, fixing the error is trivial. Hence, this list tries to explain the solution in a general way to apply.
What should I do here?
If your question has been marked as a duplicate of this one, please find your error message below and apply the fix to your code. The answers usually contain further links to investigate in case it shouldn't be clear from the general answer alone.
If you want to contribute, please add your "favorite" error message, warning or notice, one per answer, a short description what it means (even if it is only highlighting terms to their manual page), a possible solution or debugging approach and a listing of existing Q&A that are of value. Also, feel free to improve any existing answers.

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent
Happens when your script tries to send an HTTP header to the client but there already was output before, which resulted in headers to be already sent to the client.
This is an E_WARNING
and it will not stop the script.
A typical example would be a template file like this:
<html>
<?php session_start(); ?>
<head><title>My Page</title>
</html>
...
The session_start()
function will try to send headers with the session cookie to the client. But PHP already sent headers when it wrote the <html>
element to the output stream. You'd have to move the session_start()
to the top.
You can solve this by going through the lines before the code triggering the Warning and check where it outputs. Move any header sending code before that code.
An often overlooked output is new lines after PHP's closing ?>
. It is considered a standard practice to omit ?>
when it is the last thing in the file. Likewise, another common cause for this warning is when the opening <?php
has an empty space, line, or invisible character before it, causing the web server to send the headers and the whitespace/newline thus when PHP starts parsing won't be able to submit any header.
If your file has more than one <?php ... ?>
code block in it, you should not have any spaces in between them. (Note: You might have multiple blocks if you had code that was automatically constructed)
Also make sure you don't have any Byte Order Marks in your code, for example when the encoding of the script is UTF-8 with BOM.

Fatal error: Call to a member function ... on a non-object
Happens with code similar to xyz->method()
where xyz
is not an object and therefore that method
can not be called.
This is a fatal error which will stop the script (forward compatibility notice: It will become a catchable error starting with PHP 7).
Most often this is a sign that the code has missing checks for error conditions. Validate that an object is actually an object before calling its methods.
A typical example would be
// ... some code using PDO
$statement = $pdo->prepare('invalid query', ...);
$statement->execute(...);
In the example above, the query cannot be prepared and prepare()
will assign false
to $statement
. Trying to call the execute()
method will then result in the Fatal Error because false
is a "non-object" because the value is a boolean.
Figure out why your function returned a boolean instead of an object. For example, check the $pdo
object for the last error that occurred. Details on how to debug this will depend on how errors are handled for the particular function/object/class in question.
If even the ->prepare
is failing then your $pdo
database handle object didn't get passed into the current scope. Find where it got defined. Then pass it as a parameter, store it as property, or share it via the global scope.
Another problem may be conditionally creating an object and then trying to call a method outside that conditional block. For example
if ($someCondition) {
$myObj = new MyObj();
}
// ...
$myObj->someMethod();
By attempting to execute the method outside the conditional block, your object may not be defined.

Nothing is seen. The page is empty and white.
Also known as the White Page Of Death or White Screen Of Death. This happens when error reporting is turned off and a fatal error (often syntax error) occurred.
If you have error logging enabled, you will find the concrete error message in your error log. This will usually be in a file called "php_errors.log", either in a central location (e.g. /var/log/apache2
on many Linux environments) or in the directory of the script itself (sometimes used in a shared hosting environment).
Sometimes it might be more straightforward to temporarily enable the display of errors. The white page will then display the error message. Take care because these errors are visible to everybody visiting the website.
This can be easily done by adding at the top of the script the following PHP code:
ini_set('display_errors', 1); error_reporting(~0);
The code will turn on the display of errors and set reporting to the highest level.
Since the ini_set()
is executed at runtime it has no effects on parsing/syntax errors. Those errors will appear in the log. If you want to display them in the output as well (e.g. in a browser) you have to set the display_startup_errors
directive to true
. Do this either in the php.ini
or in a .htaccess
or by any other method that affects the configuration before runtime.
You can use the same methods to set the log_errors and error_log directives to choose your own log file location.
Looking in the log or using the display, you will get a much better error message and the line of code where your script comes to halt.

Notice: Undefined Index
Happens when you try to access an array by a key that does not exist in the array.
A typical example of an Undefined Index
notice would be (demo)
$data = array('foo' => '42', 'bar');
echo $data['spinach'];
echo $data[1];
Both spinach
and 1
do not exist in the array, causing an E_NOTICE
to be triggered.
The solution is to make sure the index or offset exists prior to accessing that index. This may mean that you need to fix a bug in your program to ensure that those indexes do exist when you expect them to. Or it may mean that you need to test whether the indexes exist using array_key_exists
or isset
:
$data = array('foo' => '42', 'bar');
if (array_key_exists('spinach', $data)) {
echo $data['spinach'];
}
else {
echo 'No key spinach in the array';
}
If you have code like:
<?php echo $_POST['message']; ?>
<form method="post" action="">
<input type="text" name="message">
...
then $_POST['message']
will not be set when this page is first loaded and you will get the above error. Only when the form is submitted and this code is run a second time will the array index exist. You typically check for this with:
if ($_POST) .. // if the $_POST array is not empty
// or
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST') .. // page was requested with POST

Warning: mysql_fetch_array() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given
First and foremost:
Please, don't use mysql_*
functions in new code. They are no longer maintained and are officially deprecated. See the red box? Learn about prepared statements instead, and use PDO or MySQLi - this article will help you decide which. If you choose PDO, here is a good tutorial.
This happens when you try to fetch data from the result of mysql_query
but the query failed.
This is a warning and won't stop the script, but will make your program wrong.
You need to check the result returned by mysql_query
by
$res = mysql_query($sql);
if (!$res) {
die(mysql_error());
}
// after checking, do the fetch

回答6:
Fatal error: Using $this when not in object context
$this
is a special variable in PHP which can not be assigned. If it is accessed in a context where it does not exist, this fatal error is given.
This error can occur:
If a non-static method is called statically. Example:
class Foo {
protected $var;
public function __construct($var) {
$this->var = $var;
}
public static function bar () {
// ^^^^^^
echo $this->var;
// ^^^^^
}
}
Foo::bar();
How to fix: review your code again, $this
can only be used in an object context, and should never be used in a static method. Also, a static method should not access the non-static property. Use self::$static_property
to access the static property.
If code from a class method has been copied over into a normal function or just the global scope and keeping the $this
special variable.
How to fix: Review the code and replace $this
with a different substitution variable.

回答7:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function XXX
Happens when you try to call a function that is not defined yet. Common causes include missing extensions and includes, conditional function declaration, function in a function declaration or simple typos.
Example 1 - Conditional Function Declaration
$someCondition = false;
if ($someCondition === true) {
function fn() {
return 1;
}
}
echo fn(); // triggers error
In this case, fn()
will never be declared because $someCondition
is not true.
Example 2 - Function in Function Declaration
function createFn()
{
function fn() {
return 1;
}
}
echo fn(); // triggers error
In this case, fn
will only be declared once createFn()
gets called. Note that subsequent calls to createFn()
will trigger an error about Redeclaration of an Existing function.
You may also see this for a PHP built-in function. Try searching for the function in the official manual, and check what "extension" (PHP module) it belongs to, and what versions of PHP support it.
In case of a missing extension, install that extension and enable it in php.ini. Refer to the Installation Instructions in the PHP Manual for the extension your function appears in. You may also be able to enable or install the extension using your package manager (e.g. apt
in Debian or Ubuntu, yum
in Red Hat or CentOS), or a control panel in a shared hosting environment.
If the function was introduced in a newer version of PHP from what you are using, you may find links to alternative implementations in the manual or its comment section. If it has been removed from PHP, look for information about why, as it may no longer be necessary.
In case of missing includes, make sure to include the file declaring the function before calling the function.
In case of typos, fix the typo.

Fatal error: Can't use function return value in write context
This usually happens when using a function directly with empty
.
Example:
if (empty(is_null(null))) {
echo 'empty';
}
This is because empty
is a language construct and not a function, it cannot be called with an expression as its argument in PHP versions before 5.5. Prior to PHP 5.5, the argument to empty()
must be a variable, but an arbitrary expression (such as a return value of a function) is permissible in PHP 5.5+.
empty
, despite its name, does not actually check if a variable is "empty". Instead, it checks if a variable doesn't exist, or == false
. Expressions (like is_null(null)
in the example) will always be deemed to exist, so here empty
is only checking if it is equal to false. You could replace empty()
here with !
, e.g. if (!is_null(null))
, or explicitly compare to false, e.g. if (is_null(null) == false)
.

MySQL: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ... at line ...
This error is often caused because you forgot to properly escape the data passed to a MySQL query.
An example of what not to do (the "Bad Idea"):
$query = "UPDATE `posts` SET my_text='{$_POST['text']}' WHERE id={$_GET['id']}";
mysqli_query($db, $query);
This code could be included in a page with a form to submit, with an URL such as http://example.com/edit.php?id=10 (to edit the post n°10)
What will happen if the submitted text contains single quotes? $query
will end up with:
$query = "UPDATE `posts` SET my_text='I'm a PHP newbie' WHERE id=10';
And when this query is sent to MySQL, it will complain that the syntax is wrong, because there is an extra single quote in the middle.
To avoid such errors, you MUST always escape the data before use in a query.
Escaping data before use in a SQL query is also very important because if you don't, your script will be open to SQL injections. An SQL injection may cause alteration, loss or modification of a record, a table or an entire database. This is a very serious security issue!

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE
This error is most often encountered when attempting to reference an array value with a quoted key for interpolation inside a double-quoted string when the entire complex variable construct is not enclosed in {}
.
The error case:
This will result in Unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE
:
echo "This is a double-quoted string with a quoted array key in $array['key']";
//---------------------------------------------------------------------^^^^^
Possible fixes:
In a double-quoted string, PHP will permit array key strings to be used unquoted, and will not issue an E_NOTICE
. So the above could be written as:
echo "This is a double-quoted string with an un-quoted array key in $array[key]";
//------------------------------------------------------------------------^^^^^
The entire complex array variable and key(s) can be enclosed in {}
, in which case they should be quoted to avoid an E_NOTICE
. The PHP documentation recommends this syntax for complex variables.
echo "This is a double-quoted string with a quoted array key in {$array['key']}";
//--------------------------------------------------------------^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
// Or a complex array property of an object:
echo "This is a a double-quoted string with a complex {$object->property->array['key']}";
Of course, the alternative to any of the above is to concatenate the array variable in instead of interpolating it:
echo "This is a double-quoted string with an array variable". $array['key'] . " concatenated inside.";
//----------------------------------------------------------^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
For reference, see the section on Variable Parsing in the PHP Strings manual page

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of XXX bytes exhausted (tried to allocate XXX bytes)
There is not enough memory to run your script. PHP has reached the memory limit and stops executing it. This error is fatal, the script stops. The value of the memory limit can be configured either in the php.ini
file or by using ini_set('memory_limit', '128 M');
in the script (which will overwrite the value defined in php.ini
). The purpose of the memory limit is to prevent a single PHP script from gobbling up all the available memory and bringing the whole web server down.
The first thing to do is to minimise the amount of memory your script needs. For instance, if you're reading a large file into a variable or are fetching many records from a database and are storing them all in an array, that may use a lot of memory. Change your code to instead read the file line by line or fetch database records one at a time without storing them all in memory. This does require a bit of a conceptual awareness of what's going on behind the scenes and when data is stored in memory vs. elsewhere.
If this error occurred when your script was not doing memory-intensive work, you need to check your code to see whether there is a memory leak. The memory_get_usage
function is your friend.

Warning: [function]: failed to open stream: [reason]
It happens when you call a file usually by include
, require
or fopen
and PHP couldn't find the file or have not enough permission to load the file.
This can happen for a variety of reasons :
- the file path is wrong
- the file path is relative
- include path is wrong
- permissions are too restrictive
- SELinux is in force
- and many more ...
One common mistake is to not use an absolute path. This can be easily solved by using a full path or magic constants like __DIR__
or dirname(__FILE__)
:
include __DIR__ . '/inc/globals.inc.php';
or:
require dirname(__FILE__) . '/inc/globals.inc.php';
Ensuring the right path is used is one step in troubleshooting these issues, this can also be related to non-existing files, rights of the filesystem preventing access or open basedir restrictions by PHP itself.
The best way to solve this problem quickly is to follow the troubleshooting checklist below.

Notice: Use of undefined constant XXX - assumed 'XXX'
or, in PHP 7.2 or later:
Warning: Use of undefined constant XXX - assumed 'XXX' (this will throw an Error in a future version of PHP)
This notice occurs when a token is used in the code and appears to be a constant, but a constant by that name is not defined.
One of the most common causes of this notice is a failure to quote a string used as an associative array key.
For example:
// Wrong
echo $array[key];
// Right
echo $array['key'];
Another common cause is a missing $
(dollar) sign in front of a variable name:
// Wrong
echo varName;
// Right
echo $varName;
Or perhaps you have misspelled some other constant or keyword:
// Wrong
$foo = fasle;
// Right
$foo = false;
It can also be a sign that a needed PHP extension or library is missing when you try to access a constant defined by that library.

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class [class name]
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare [function name]
This means you're either using the same function/class name twice and need to rename one of them, or it is because you have used require
or include
where you should be using require_once
or include_once
.
When a class or a function is declared in PHP, it is immutable, and cannot later be declared with a new value.
Consider the following code:
class.php
<?php
class MyClass
{
public function doSomething()
{
// do stuff here
}
}
index.php
<?php
function do_stuff()
{
require 'class.php';
$obj = new MyClass;
$obj->doSomething();
}
do_stuff();
do_stuff();
The second call to do_stuff()
will produce the error above. By changing require
to require_once
, we can be certain that the file that contains the definition of MyClass
will only be loaded once, and the error will be avoided.

Notice: Undefined variable
Happens when you try to use a variable that wasn't previously defined.
A typical example would be
foreach ($items as $item) {
// do something with item
$counter++;
}
If you didn't define $counter
before, the code above will trigger the notice.
The correct way would be to set the variable before using it, even if it's just an empty string like
$counter = 0;
foreach ($items as $item) {
// do something with item
$counter++;
}
Notice: Undefined property
This error means much the same thing, but refers to a property of an object. Reusing the example above, this code would trigger the error because the counter
property hasn't been set.
$obj = new stdclass;
$obj->property = 2342;
foreach ($items as $item) {
// do something with item
$obj->counter++;
}

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE
Possible scenario
I can't seem to find where my code has gone wrong. Here is my full error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE on line x
What I am trying
$sql = 'SELECT * FROM dealer WHERE id="'$id.'"';
Answer
Parse error: A problem with the syntax of your program, such as leaving a semicolon off of the end of a statement or, like the case above, missing the .
operator. The interpreter stops running your program when it encounters a parse error.
In simple words this is a syntax error, meaning that there is something in your code stopping it from being parsed correctly and therefore running.
What you should do is check carefully at the lines around where the error is for any simple mistakes.
That error message means that in line x of the file, the PHP interpreter was expecting to see an open parenthesis but instead, it encountered something called T_VARIABLE
. That T_VARIABLE
thing is called a token
. It's the PHP interpreter's way of expressing different fundamental parts of programs. When the interpreter reads in a program, it translates what you've written into a list of tokens. Wherever you put a variable in your program, there is aT_VARIABLE
token in the interpreter's list.
Good read: List of Parser Tokens
So make sure you enable at least E_PARSE
in your php.ini
. Parse errors should not exist in production scripts.
I always recommended to add the following statement, while coding:
error_reporting(E_ALL);
PHP error reporting
Also, a good idea to use an IDE which will let you know parse errors while typing. You can use:
- NetBeans (a fine piece of beauty, free software) (the best in my opinion)
- PhpStorm (uncle Gordon love this: P, paid plan, contains proprietary and free software)
- Eclipse (beauty and the beast, free software)

Notice: Uninitialized string offset: *
As the name indicates, such type of error occurs, when you are most likely trying to iterate over or find a value from an array with a non-existing key.
Consider you, are trying to show every letter from $string
$string = 'ABCD';
for ($i=0, $len = strlen($string); $i <= $len; $i++){
echo "$string[$i] \n";
}
The above example will generate (online demo):
A
B
C
D
Notice: Uninitialized string offset: 4 in XXX on line X
And, as soon as the script finishes echoing D
you'll get the error, because inside the for()
loop, you have told PHP to show you the from first to fifth string character from 'ABCD'
Which, exists, but since the loop starts to count from 0
and echoes D
by the time it reaches to 4
, it will throw an offset error.

回答20:
Notice: Trying to get property of non-object error
Happens when you try to access a property of an object while there is no object.
A typical example for a non-object notice would be
$users = json_decode('[{"name": "hakre"}]');
echo $users->name; # Notice: Trying to get property of non-object
In this case, $users
is an array (so not an object) and it does not have any properties.
This is similar to accessing a non-existing index or key of an array (see Notice: Undefined Index).
This example is much simplified. Most often such a notice signals an unchecked return value, e.g. when a library returns NULL
if an object does not exists or just an unexpected non-object value (e.g. in an Xpath result, JSON structures with unexpected format, XML with unexpected format etc.) but the code does not check for such a condition.
As those non-objects are often processed further on, often a fatal-error happens next on calling an object method on a non-object (see: Fatal error: Call to a member function ... on a non-object) halting the script.
It can be easily prevented by checking for error conditions and/or that a variable matches an expectation. Here such a notice with a DOMXPath example:
$result = $xpath->query("//*[@id='detail-sections']/div[1]");
$divText = $result->item(0)->nodeValue; # Notice: Trying to get property of non-object
The problem is accessing the nodeValue
property (field) of the first item while it has not been checked if it exists or not in the $result
collection. Instead it pays to make the code more explicit by assigning variables to the objects the code operates on:
$result = $xpath->query("//*[@id='detail-sections']/div[1]");
$div = $result->item(0);
$divText = "-/-";
if (is_object($div)) {
$divText = $div->nodeValue;
}
echo $divText;

The warning itself does not break anything, but most often a script does not properly work if file-access is prevented.
The fix is normally to change the PHP configuration, the related setting is called open_basedir
.
Sometimes the wrong file or directory names are used, the fix is then to use the right ones.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '['
This error comes in two variatians:
Variation 1
$arr = [1, 2, 3];
This array initializer syntax was only introduced in PHP 5.4; it will raise a parser error on versions before that. If possible, upgrade your installation or use the old syntax:
$arr = array(1, 2, 3);
See also this example from the manual.
Variation 2
$suffix = explode(',', 'foo,bar')[1];
Array dereferencing function results was also introduced in PHP 5.4. If it's not possible to upgrade you need to use a (temporary) variable:
$parts = explode(',', 'foo,bar');
$suffix = $parts[1];
See also this example from the manual.

Warning: [function] expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given
(A more general variation of Warning: mysql_fetch_array() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given)
Resources are a type in PHP (like strings, integers or objects). A resource is an opaque blob with no inherently meaningful value of its own. A resource is specific to and defined by a certain set of PHP functions or extension. For instance, the Mysql extension defines two resource types:
There are two resource types used in the MySQL module. The first one is the link identifier for a database connection, the second a resource which holds the result of a query.
The cURL extension defines another two resource types:
... a cURL handle and a cURL multi handle.
When var_dump
ed, the values look like this:
$resource = curl_init();
var_dump($resource);
resource(1) of type (curl)
That's all most resources are, a numeric identifier ((1)
) of a certain type ((curl)
).
You carry these resources around and pass them to different functions for which such a resource means something. Typically these functions allocate certain data in the background and a resource is just a reference which they use to keep track of this data internally.
The "... expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given" error is typically the result of an unchecked operation that was supposed to create a resource, but returned false
instead. For instance, the fopen
function has this description:
Return Values
Returns a file pointer resource on success, or FALSE
on error.
So in this code, $fp
will either be a resource(x) of type (stream)
or false
:
$fp = fopen(...);
If you do not check whether the fopen
operation succeed or failed and hence whether $fp
is a valid resource or false
and pass $fp
to another function which expects a resource, you may get the above error:
$fp = fopen(...);
$data = fread($fp, 1024);
Warning: fread() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given
You always need to error check the return value of functions which are trying to allocate a resource and may fail:
$fp = fopen(...);
if (!$fp) {
trigger_error('Failed to allocate resource');
exit;
}
$data = fread($fp, 1024);

Warning: Illegal string offset 'XXX'
This happens when you try to access an array element with the square bracket syntax, but you're doing this on a string, and not on an array, so the operation clearly doesn't make sense.
Example:
$var = "test";
echo $var["a_key"];
If you think the variable should be an array, see where it comes from and fix the problem there.

Code doesn't run/what looks like parts of my PHP code are output
If you see no result from your PHP code whatsoever and/or you are seeing parts of your literal PHP source code output in the webpage, you can be pretty sure that your PHP isn't actually getting executed. If you use View Source in your browser, you're probably seeing the whole PHP source code file as is. Since PHP code is embedded in <?php ?>
tags, the browser will try to interpret those as HTML tags and the result may look somewhat confused.
To actually run your PHP scripts, you need:
- a web server which executes your script
- to set the file extension to .php, otherwise the web server won't interpret it as such*
- to access your .php file via the web server
* Unless you reconfigure it, everything can be configured.
This last one is particularly important. Just double clicking the file will likely open it in your browser using an address such as:
file://C:/path/to/my/file.php
This is completely bypassing any web server you may have running and the file is not getting interpreted. You need to visit the URL of the file on your web server, likely something like:
http://localhost/my/file.php
You may also want to check whether you're using short open tags <?
instead of <?php
and your PHP configuration has turned short open tags off.

Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user 'name'@'host'
This warning shows up when you connect to a MySQL/MariaDB server with invalid or missing credentials (username/password). So this is typically not a code problem, but a server configuration issue.
See the manual page on mysql_connect("localhost", "user", "pw")
for examples.
Check that you actually used a $username
and $password
.
- It's uncommon that you gain access using no password - which is what happened when the Warning: said
(using password: NO)
.
Only the local test server usually allows to connect with username root
, no password, and the test
database name.
You can test if they're really correct using the command line client:
mysql --user="username" --password="password" testdb
Username and password are case-sensitive and whitespace is not ignored. If your password contains meta characters like $
, escape them, or put the password in single quotes.
Most shared hosting providers predeclare mysql accounts in relation to the unix user account (sometimes just prefixes or extra numeric suffixes). See the docs for a pattern or documentation, and CPanel or whatever interface for setting a password.
See the MySQL manual on Adding user accounts using the command line. When connected as admin user you can issue a query like:
CREATE USER 'username'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'newpassword';
Or use Adminer or WorkBench or any other graphical tool to create, check or correct account details.
If you can't fix your credentials, then asking the internet to "please help" will have no effect. Only you and your hosting provider have permissions and sufficient access to diagnose and fix things.
Verify that you could reach the database server, using the host name given by your provider:
ping dbserver.hoster.example.net
Check this from a SSH console directly on your webserver. Testing from your local development client to your shared hosting server is rarely meaningful.
Often you just want the server name to be "localhost"
, which normally utilizes a local named socket when available. Othertimes you can try "127.0.0.1"
as fallback.
Should your MySQL/MariaDB server listen on a different port, then use "servername:3306"
.
If that fails, then there's a perhaps a firewall issue. (Off-topic, not a programming question. No remote guess-helping possible.)
When using constants like e.g. DB_USER
or DB_PASSWORD
, check that they're actually defined.
If you get a "Warning: Access defined for 'DB_USER'@'host'"
and a "Notice: use of undefined constant 'DB_PASS'"
, then that's your problem.
Verify that your e.g. xy/db-config.php
was actually included and whatelse.
Check for correctly set GRANT
permissions.
It's not sufficient to have a username
+password
pair.
Each MySQL/MariaDB account can have an attached set of permissions.
Those can restrict which databases you are allowed to connect to, from which client/server the connection may originate from, and which queries are permitted.
The "Access denied" warning thus may as well show up for mysql_query
calls, if you don't have permissions to SELECT
from a specific table, or INSERT
/UPDATE
, and more commonly DELETE
anything.
You can adapt account permissions when connected per command line client using the admin account with a query like:
GRANT ALL ON yourdb.* TO 'username'@'localhost';
If the warning shows up first with Warning: mysql_query(): Access denied for user ''@'localhost'
then you may have a php.ini-preconfigured account/password pair.
Find the documentation of your shared hosting provider:
e.g. HostGator, GoDaddy, 1and1, DigitalOcean, BlueHost, DreamHost, MediaTemple, ixWebhosting, lunarhosting, or just google yours´.
Else consult your webhosting provider through their support channels.
Note that you may also have depleted the available connection pool. You'll get access denied warnings for too many concurrent connections. (You have to investigate the setup. That's an off-topic server configuration issue, not a programming question.)
Your libmysql client version may not be compatible with the database server. Normally MySQL and MariaDB servers can be reached with PHPs compiled in driver. If you have a custom setup, or an outdated PHP version, and a much newer database server, or significantly outdated one - then the version mismatch may prevent connections. (No, you have to investigate yourself. Nobody can guess your setup).

- Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied
- Warning: mysql_select_db() Access denied for user ''@'localhost' (using password: NO)

Btw, you probably don't want to use mysql_*
functions anymore. Newcomers often migrate to mysqli, which however is just as tedious. Instead read up on PDO and prepared statements.
$db = new PDO("mysql:host=localhost;dbname=testdb", "username", "password");

Notice: Array to string conversion
This simply happens if you try to treat an array as a string:
$arr = array('foo', 'bar');
echo $arr; // Notice: Array to string conversion
$str = 'Something, ' . $arr; // Notice: Array to string conversion
An array cannot simply be echo
'd or concatenated with a string, because the result is not well defined. PHP will use the string "Array" in place of the array, and trigger the notice to point out that that's probably not what was intended and that you should be checking your code here. You probably want something like this instead:
echo $arr[0]; // displays foo
$str = 'Something ' . join(', ', $arr); //displays Something, foo, bar
Or loop the array:
foreach($arr as $key => $value) {
echo "array $key = $value";
// displays first: array 0 = foo
// displays next: array 1 = bar
}
If this notice appears somewhere you don't expect, it means a variable which you thought is a string is actually an array. That means you have a bug in your code which makes this variable an array instead of the string you expect.

Warning: Division by zero
The warning message 'Division by zero' is one of the most commonly asked questions among new PHP developers. This error will not cause an exception, therefore, some developers will occasionally suppress the warning by adding the error suppression operator @ before the expression. For example:
$value = @(2 / 0);
But, like with any warning, the best approach would be to track down the cause of the warning and resolve it. The cause of the warning is going to come from any instance where you attempt to divide by 0, a variable equal to 0, or a variable which has not been assigned (because NULL == 0) because the result will be 'undefined'.
To correct this warning, you should rewrite your expression to check that the value is not 0, if it is, do something else. If the value is zero you should not divide, or change the value to 1 and then divide so the division results in the equivalent of having divided only by the additional variable.
if ( $var1 == 0 ) { // check if var1 equals zero
$var1 = 1; // var1 equaled zero so change var1 to equal one instead
$var3 = ($var2 / $var1); // divide var1/var2 ie. 1/1
} else {
$var3 = ($var2 / $var1); // if var1 does not equal zero, divide
}

Strict Standards: Non-static method [<class>::<method>] should not be called statically
Occurs when you try to call a non-static method on a class as it was static, and you also have the E_STRICT
flag in your error_reporting()
settings.
Example :
class HTML {
public function br() {
echo '<br>';
}
}
HTML::br()
or $html::br()
You can actually avoid this error by not adding E_STRICT
to error_reporting()
, eg
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_STRICT);
since as for PHP 5.4.0 and above, E_STRICT
is included in E_ALL
[ref]. But that is not adviceable. The solution is to define your intended static function as actual static
:
public static function br() {
echo '<br>';
}
or call the function conventionally :
$html = new HTML();
$html->br();

Fatal error: Object of class Closure could not be converted to a string
It means that you are not executing your anonymous function (or a closure).
An error will be thrown for this example using arrow functions:
echo $fn = fn($x = 42) => $x;
Or for any anonymous function
echo function($x = 42) { return $x; };
To resolve this error you need to execute the closure.
echo $fn = (fn($x = 42) => $x)(30); // take notice of the 2 sets of brackets
echo (function($x = 42) { return $x; })(30);
This kind of syntax is called IIFE and it was added in PHP 7.
