After transferring to MySQL, date fieldvalues now show null

P: 20
I have a news website, with asp pages, which was on Access, and i upgraded to MySQL, i used Bullzip to transfer the data. It had about 1000 pages, which im now able to pull up on the public side. Im sorting out a few glitches though.

Since i upgraded from ms access database to MySQL, i have added about 4 articles to test the new setup. I note some fields aren't being added in the new mySql database for the new 4 records. When i ran the MySQK query analyser and checked to see what was in the database fields.. the "fldCreated" shows NULL, when it should be showing a date. In the query analyser, the dates BEFORE the new mysql database show:

nm_tbl_news n;
2008-10-15 08:28:31

but in the few articles i added after the transfer it doesn't have a date, it says NULL, which means the code adding the date to the database must be wrong.


I'm including some code from the newsadd.asp page, which is the page that is actually adding the news to the database and also some code from the include files on this page , which may be relevant


inc_api.asp

I'd appreciate it if anyone could show me what to change and where. I'm not html literate, and realise the code above is probably not written in the best way, but im just concerned with getting it to function.

Much appreciated and thanks in advance

On line 47 of your news_add.asp, there is no reference to a "fldCreated" in your SQL query. That means no value would be input to your table when this script fires off.

I have modified your file with important changes. See lines 18 - 23.

I created a new variable 'CREATE_DATE'.

The code on line 21 formats this date as "MM/DD/YYY"

Line 22 is just so I can get around modifying other files and thus complicating this for you.

Line 23 formats the date for MySQL insertion.

Skip to line 53 now. It now includes fldCreated.

Try this and let me know if it works.

Thanks so much, N

I tried the code and when i tried adding the article i got this error message. Remember before i could add the article , but there was no date in the fldCreated showing in the Mysql database


Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a01f4'

Variable is undefined: 'twoDay'

/Admin/ne_add.asp, line 19

and the code on line 19 is

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. With Request
Anyhow i think it important to mention something, this script was set to run on different databases, 1 for Access, 2 for MS sql and 3 for MySQL

It was working fine on Access. But i didn't show you the part for the Access database
You said " fldCreated" was missing. But it was also missing from the code used for Access, and it worked fine then. Let me show you, the complete code for that part, as i only showed you the MySQL one,

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1.  '<description> add article </description>
  2.             '               
  3.             IF DB_TO_USE = 1 THEN
  4.                 SQL = "INSERT INTO nm_tbl_news (fldTITLE, fldCONTENT, fldSUMMARY, fldACTIVE, fldAID, fldPOSTED, fldEXPIRES, fldIMAGE, fldALLOW_COMMENTS, fldALLOW_VOTING, fldHIGHLIGHT, fldUSE_VIEW) VALUES ('" & TITLE & "','" & CONTENT & "','" & SUMMARY & "'," & ACTIVE & "," & AGENT & ",#" & sDATE & "#,#" & eDATE & "#,'" & IMAGE & "'," & ALLOW_C & "," & ALLOW_V & "," & HLITE & ", " & USE_VIEW & ")"
  5.             ELSE
  6.                 SQL = "INSERT INTO nm_tbl_news (fldTITLE, fldCONTENT, fldSUMMARY, fldACTIVE, fldAID, fldPOSTED, fldEXPIRES, fldIMAGE, fldALLOW_COMMENTS, fldALLOW_VOTING, fldHIGHLIGHT, fldUSE_VIEW) VALUES ('" & TITLE & "','" & CONTENT & "','" & SUMMARY & "'," & ACTIVE & "," & AGENT & ",'" & sDATE & "','" & eDATE & "','" & IMAGE & "'," & ALLOW_C & "," & ALLOW_V & "," & HLITE & ", " & USE_VIEW & ")"
  7.  
  8.             END IF 


As you can see, fldCreated was missing from the Access one too. But the data that i transferred using Bullzip, shows the fldCreated field with dates in. The only ones showing "null" are the 4 articles i added since ive had MySQL

Anyway, using the code above, it didn't add the article to the database, but returned the error above.

I don't think this is related, but when i transferred the data, i couldn't transfer using Bullzip, without leaving out the "default" values, whatever those are. When i unchecked that box, i could transfer the data. I don't think that has anything to do with this, but just in case, i thought i'd let you know.


an update: I just checked my access database, and it didn't have a "fldCreated" column, so i'm confused now. Did the transfer create this extra column or what?

Many thanks

to solve the variable undefined errors, just create Dim statements for all teh variables I added to the top of the page, underneath the include statements.
See if that clears up the issue
