Hi, I'm trying to perform a button in one of my views where a user (an admin) can perform a database connection test on the fly, I have an action where I have the following code and I get the error "*Database connection "Sqlserver" is missing, or could not be created."* * * The thing is that I don't want to assign that connection to a model ($useDbConfig), I just want to test the given config parameters. Can somebody help me please? I'm with Cake 2.2.3 and a working MSSQL implementation. Thanks in advance
public function testconnection() { $this->layout = false; // Connection settings $conn = 'test'; $config = array(); $config['datasource'] = 'Database/Sqlserver'; $config['persistent'] = false; $config['host'] = $this->request->data['DbServer']; $config['login'] = $this->request->data['DbUser']; $config['password'] = $this->request->data['DbPassword']; $config['database'] = $this->request->data['DbName']; if (isset($this->request->data['DbPort'])) { $config['port'] = $this->request->data['DbPort']; } else { $config['port'] = 1433; } // connects to database App::import('Model', 'ConnectionManager'); try { $connected = ConnectionManager::create($conn, $config); } catch (Exception $connectionError) { $connected = false; } if ($connected && $connected->isConnected()) { $this->set('res', 1); } else { $this->set('res', $connectionError->getMessage()); } ConnectionManager::drop($conn); } -- Like Us on FaceBook https://www.facebook.com/CakePHP Find us on Twitter http://twitter.com/CakePHP --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
