MYSQLI experts: mysqli_multi_qu ery generates syntax error

1 New Member
I'm using mysqli_multi_qu ery to run multiple queries concatenated with a semicolon that I set using the HEREDOC format.

What's weird is that this works fine on my development system on my laptop (a PC running PHP 5.x and mysql5.x). When I bring the code onto a linux system (with my ISP), the code chokes with a syntax error near the first semicolon. I believe they too are running PHP 5.x and mysql 5.x.

Any clues what's going on? I mean, where just talking about queries like this:

$query=<<<EOQ
drop table if exists `addressbook`;
CREATE TABLE `addressbook` (`id` int(11) NOT NULL ...
...
EOQ;

The error is reported near ";CREATE TABLE...." So I'm guessing it has to do with the semicolon and that perhaps somehow, mysql_multi_que ry is actually being mapped to mysql_query on the ISPs machines? Really, this is weird.

I guess it's not a big deal given than I just broke up the statements, but still, this is annoying. Oh, and just to make sure that there aren't any syntax errors, when I bring up the mysql monitor on the command line and source the multi-line query, everything is fine... it's just something funky about mysqli_multi_qu ery on the ISP.

Thanks for the information. I am not a mysqli user, but is there anyone in the members community who can shed some light on this??

Hi, I am compiling PHP 5.0.2 myself with MySQL support. I did a ./configure --with-mysqli=/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config (see end of post for complete configure) Note: I also have --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql/. However, I get the same errors when I configure without the mysql extension, just mysqli. And as the documentation says, I use the same version of MySQL for both extensions to avoid conflicts.

When configuring PHP5 (5.0.3) to use the mysqli libraries I get a "No such file or directory" from the configure script. My goal is to get PHP5 running with mysql 4.1.09 with both the mysql and mysqli options. I can get it to configure and work correctly with just the mysql but NOT the mysqli or both. Environment: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, rel 4 php 5.0.3 from sources from php.net

Hello everyone: Recently, I decided to upgrade to PHP 5.2.0. I have C:\php5 in the Windows XP PATH, so upgrading is quite painless; just unzip new release, and restart Apache! Usually it goes off without a hitch, but I noticed that phpMyAdmin was not able to utilize the MySQLi library (which was working with my last 5.1.x release). As I was looking through php_info(), I noticed that MySQLi didn't even load. However, when I restarted...
