Re: fetchrow_array loop in perl 5.10

in reply to fetchrow_array loop in perl 5.10

You expect people to determine from deep understanding of the code why your program doesn't work.

I view programming the other way around ..... it doesn't work? What is the return value of execute()? What does DBI::errstr() return? If you run the program in the debugger, what happens in the first ( and only successful ) execute()? Is there a second execute() attempted but it fails? Or does the loop terminate after the first execute?

As Occam said: Entia non sunt multiplicanda praeter necessitatem.

errstr has no value for every after line, the issue here is that the loop (fetchrow_array) ends after 2 rows (out of 4) always. again the code perfectly works before the perl upgrade.	[reply]

If there are no errors but the loop ends unexpectedly, have you checked to see that the loop conditional is what you expect?	[reply]
