query builder class update

I am also having a problem with the code below which uses the query builder class.

$userid=(string) $result->successResponse->user->id;
$this->db->set('fusion_userid', $userid);
$this->db->where('email', $email);
$this->db->update('employees');

I have checked the $email and the $userid and they appear fine. But after the update (which has no error code) I look at the mysql table and the $fusion_userid field is blank. 

Any idea how to solve thid?

@richb201,

What version of CI are you using? Also, did you check to see what the generated SQL looks like?

thanks php. I solved this. How? Well, I do about a thousand of trial and error attempts and it just went away. Not the best way to work.

If you solved it then please write [SOLVED] in your topic title.
