mysqli::ping

mysqli_ping

(PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

mysqli::ping -- mysqli_pingPings a server connection, or tries to reconnect if the connection has gone down

Description

Object-oriented style

public mysqli::ping(): bool

Procedural style

mysqli_ping(mysqli $mysql): bool

Checks whether the connection to the server is working. If it has gone down and global option mysqli.reconnect is enabled, an automatic reconnection is attempted.

Note: The php.ini setting mysqli.reconnect is ignored by the mysqlnd driver, so automatic reconnection is never attempted.

This function can be used by clients that remain idle for a long while, to check whether the server has closed the connection and reconnect if necessary.

Parameters

mysql

Procedural style only: A mysqli object returned by mysqli_connect() or mysqli_init()

Return Values

Returns true on success or false on failure.
