SOLVED :-)

sorry i was a bit too quick posting, i just found the solution myself.


for anyone who's interested in doing the same, just do at the very first beginning, your base controller or any other fitting entry point the following.

if the connection id (conn_id) is set, you've got a working database if not then... not

Code:

if ( $this->load->database('', true)->conn_id == false)
            print "error";
        else
            print "success";
