[TYPO3-english] How to debug "home-made" plugins?

[Markus Klein]

Hi!

You have got one very huge problem:
You're one of those devs that use the mysql functions directly. This is highly undesirable.

So why does your code not work?
Simply because since TYPO CMS 6.1 mysqli is used instead of mysql.
See https://typo3.org/download/release-notes/typo3-61-release-notes/

Hence your mysql calls will always fail, since there's no connection anymore!!!

I highly recommend to immediately switch to the TYPO3 Database API.

$GLOBALS['DB']->...

See http://typo3.org/api/typo3cms/class_t_y_p_o3_1_1_c_m_s_1_1_core_1_1_database_1_1_database_connection.html


Kind regards
Markus
