Hi David,
if a table doesn´t exist in the database, a warning messing like this is displayed:
Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/includes/database.php on line 21
Instead of this warning message, I would like to display a new html page with the message
"Site is in maintenance !"
How can I do this? What I have to change in database.php?
This replacement with header doesn´t work for me...
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/html/header.php:12)...
Hi Harry,
For database queries that take place after the output has begun the only option to use a JavaScript redirect. Try it like this instead of the above code:
$result = mysql_query($sql,$link);
if (!$result)
{
print "<script type='text/JavaScript'>window.location='/maintenance.html';</script>";
exit();
}
Cheers,
David.
Hi Harry,
Assuming this is intentional, you could do this easily by sending a redirect to your maintenance HTML page if a database query fails. In includes/database.php, you will see this code on line 17:
$result = mysql_query($sql,$link);
...simply REPLACE this with:
$result = mysql_query($sql,$link);
if (!$result)
{
header("Location: /maintenance.html");
exit();
}
Cheers,
David.
