Call Multiple Stored Procedures with the Zend Framework
- by Brian Fisher
I'm using Zend Framework 1.7.2, MySQL and the MySQLi PDO adapter. I would like to call multiple stored procedures during a given action. I've found that on Windows there is a problem calling multiple stored procedures. If you try it you get the following error message:
SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 2014
Cannot execute queries while other
unbuffered queries are active.
Consider using
PDOStatement::fetchAll().
Alternatively, if your code is only
ever going to run against mysql, you
may enable query buffering by setting
the PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_USE_BUFFERED_QUERY
attribute.
I found that to work around this issue I could just close the connection to the database after each call to a stored procedure:
if (strtoupper(substr(PHP_OS, 0, 3)) === 'WIN') {
//If on windows close the connection
$db->closeConnection();
}
This has worked well for me, however, now I want to call multiple stored procedures wrapped in a transaction. Of course, closing the connection isn't an option in this situation, since it causes a rollback of the open transaction. Any ideas, how to fix this problem and/or work around the issue.
