DB reconnect failed - imwwp - 12-25-2015

I'm writing a data monitor script work with CLI this week,

Code:
$this->load->database();

#####################################

running 10mins, and local ip changed.

#####################################

// need re-connnect database

$this->db->reconnect();

var_dump($this->db->conn_id)

// bool(false);

$this->db->select('name')->where_in('id', $array)->get('table')->result_array();

// Severity: error --> Exception: Call to a member function real_escape_string() on boolean path\system\database\drivers\mysqli\mysqli_driver.php 344

OK, it's looks like the re-connect was failed.

Why does this error occur? How to deal with it?

Resolved;

Code:
$this->db->reconnect();

// Replace with:

$this->db->close();

$this->db->initialize();

In the mysqli driver, reconnect() uses mysqli::ping(), which will attempt to reconnect to the server if the mysqli.reconnect option is enabled on the server. In any case, after calling $this->db->reconnect(), you should check whether $this->db->conn_id is false before attempting to use the connection. If it is false, you could attempt to close/initialize as you did, but you should check the return value of initialize() before attempting to use the connection (as it will return false if it fails to connect/initialize).
