How can the discrepancy between accessing the server via browser and FTP/phpMyAdmin lead to issues with mysqli queries functioning correctly after a hosting migration?
The discrepancy between accessing the server via browser and FTP/phpMyAdmin can lead to issues with mysqli queries functioning correctly after a hosting migration due to differences in file paths and server configurations. To solve this issue, you should ensure that the file paths used in your mysqli queries are correct and consistent across all methods of accessing the server.
// Define the database connection parameters
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "username";
$password = "password";
$database = "dbname";
// Create a mysqli connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $database);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
// Sample mysqli query
$sql = "SELECT * FROM table_name";
$result = $conn->query($sql);
// Check if query was successful
if ($result->num_rows > 0) {
// Output data of each row
while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
echo "id: " . $row["id"]. " - Name: " . $row["name"]. "<br>";
}
} else {
echo "0 results";
}
// Close the mysqli connection
$conn->close();
