“The active result contains no fields” using PDO with MS SQL

Question

I am in the process of converting some old PHP pages to use PDO.

Below are two simplified queries (not my actual queries) to aid understanding of the problem I\'m ha

Answer 1

If you are using a StoredProcedure and doing something as:

DB::select("EXEC [storedprocedure] $param1,$param2;");

As per above, the PDO expects the DB::select statement to return some data. But as your StoredProcedure does not return any data, you can change DB::select TO DB::update as belows:

DB::update("EXEC [storedprocedure] $param1,$param2;");

After this the error should no longer appear.
