Whenever I query my database (sqlite) like this in my model (im using codeigniter, full code below):
$this->db->select('post');
$query = $this->db->get('posts');
return $query->result_array();
I get the following error:
Fatal error: Call to a member function rowCount() on a non-object in /codeigniter/system/database/drivers/pdo/pdo_result.php on line 42
When changing the query to something nonexistent I get a "proper" error, something like:
A Database Error Occurred
Error Number: HY000
no such column: posst
SELECT posst FROM posts
Filename: /codeigniter/models/post.php
Line Number: 8
Which leads me to believe the database is actually working, but there is something I am missing.
I have tried recreating the database. It literally has 1 table with 1 column, but I just cannot get any data out. I also tried creating it with different "admin" programs but to no avail. I made sure it is an Sqlite 3 db, which is supported by the webserver according to phpinfo.
Does anybody have a clue where I am making a mistake?
-------- full code:
my post model in models/post.php
<?php
class Post extends CI_Model{
function get_posts(){
$this->db->select('posst');
$query = $this->db->get('posts');
return $query->result_array();
}
}
My controller in controller/posts.php :
<?php
class Posts extends CI_Controller{
function index(){
$this->load->model('post');
$data['posts']=$this->post->get_posts();
echo"<pre>";
print_r($data['posts']);
echo"</pre>";
}
}
My database config in database.php :
$active_group = 'default';
$active_record = TRUE;
$db['default']['hostname'] = 'sqlite:/home/******/******/www/wtp3/codeigniter/db/wtp35.sqlite';
$db['default']['username'] = '';
$db['default']['password'] = '';
$db['default']['database'] = '';
$db['default']['dbdriver'] = 'pdo';
$db['default']['dbprefix'] = '';
$db['default']['pconnect'] = TRUE;
$db['default']['db_debug'] = TRUE;
$db['default']['cache_on'] = FALSE;
$db['default']['cachedir'] = '';
$db['default']['char_set'] = 'utf8';
$db['default']['dbcollat'] = 'utf8_general_ci';
$db['default']['swap_pre'] = '';
$db['default']['autoinit'] = TRUE;
$db['default']['stricton'] = FALSE;
Credits for this fix are with S. Stüvel, J. Bransen and S. Timmer. This is a fix for a specific server, so YMMV. It did the trick for me though.
In pdo_driver.php, starting line 81 change:
empty($this->database) OR $this->hostname .= ';dbname='.$this->database;
$this->trans_enabled = FALSE;
$this->_random_keyword = ' RND('.time().')'; // database specific random keyword
}
to
if(strpos($this->database, 'sqlite') !== FALSE) {
$this->hostname = $this->database;
$this->_random_keyword = ' RANDOM()';
}
else {
$this->hostname .= ";dbname=".$this->database;
$this->_random_keyword = ' RND('.time().')'; // database specific random keyword
}
$this->trans_enabled = FALSE;
}
On line 189 change the entire function _execute($sql) to
function _execute($sql)
{
$sql = $this->_prep_query($sql);
$result_id = $this->conn_id->query($sql);
if (is_object($result_id))
{
$this->affect_rows = $result_id->rowCount();
}
else
{
$this->affect_rows = 0;
}
return $result_id;
}
Then in pdo_result.php change":
On line 29 change
public $num_rows;
to
var $pdo_results = '';
var $pdo_index = 0;
on line 36 replace entire function
public function num_rows()
{
if (is_int($this->num_rows))
{
return $this->num_rows;
}
elseif (($this->num_rows = $this->result_id->rowCount()) > 0)
{
return $this->num_rows;
}
$this->num_rows = count($this->result_id->fetchAll());
$this->result_id->execute();
return $this->num_rows;
}
with:
function num_rows()
{
if ( ! $this->pdo_results ) {
$this->pdo_results = $this->result_id->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
}
return sizeof($this->pdo_results);
Then on line 60 change
function num_fields()
{
return $this->result_id->columnCount();
}
to:
function num_fields()
{
if ( is_array($this->pdo_results) ) {
return sizeof($this->pdo_results[$this->pdo_index]);
} else {
return $this->result_id->columnCount();
}
}
Then on line 94 change:
function field_data()
{
$data = array();
try
{
for($i = 0; $i < $this->num_fields(); $i++)
{
$data[] = $this->result_id->getColumnMeta($i);
}
return $data;
}
catch (Exception $e)
{
if ($this->db->db_debug)
{
return $this->db->display_error('db_unsuported_feature');
}
return FALSE;
}
}
to:
function field_data()
{
if ($this->db->db_debug)
{
return $this->db->display_error('db_unsuported_feature');
}
return FALSE;
}
then line 146 change:
return FALSE;
to
$this->pdo_index = $n;
then on line 159 change
function _fetch_assoc()
{
return $this->result_id->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
}
to
function _fetch_assoc()
{
if ( is_array($this->pdo_results) ) {
$i = $this->pdo_index;
$this->pdo_index++;
if ( isset($this->pdo_results[$i]))
return $this->pdo_results[$i];
return null;
}
return $this->result_id->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
}
And finally on line 174 change:
function _fetch_object()
{
return $this->result_id->fetchObject();
to
function _fetch_object()
{
if ( is_array($this->pdo_results) ) {
$i = $this->pdo_index;
$this->pdo_index++;
if ( isset($this->pdo_results[$i])) {
$back = new stdClass();
foreach ( $this->pdo_results[$i] as $key => $val ) {
$back->$key = $val;
}
return $back;
}
return null;
}
return $this->result_id->fetch(PDO::FETCH_OBJ);
}
This worked for me. Again, not my work, credit goes out to S. Stüvel, J. Bransen and S. Timmer.
Rather long answer, but i hope this helps.
There is a bug in CodeIgniter version 2.1.0
for PDO
drivers (They had just added PDO driver in version 2.1.0)
You can see change log for version 2.1.1
Please try upgrading your CodeIgniter.
I have Codeigniter 2.2.1 and when I set application/config/database.php the same as OP I can use sqlite database, sort of. I can create new database/file, create new tables and insert data. The problem is that I can't read any.
$query = $this->db->get('table_name');
return $query->result_array();
Returns empty array. The same happens when I do.
$query = $this->db->query("SELECT...");
Apparently there are still some bugs. I'm just starting to explore Codeigniter, but when I switch to mysql the same exact Model works as it should.
For the record, everything on my server is set up OK. I can use my sqlite databases just fine, it is just Codeigniter that has problems.
I applied g_m solution after updating from 2.1.3 to 2.2.6, and as jimmy, I had to remove the first change in pdo_driver.php to make it work.
