This descriptor does not exist.

[esko512]

$sql=ifx_query("UPDATE reports SET status ='0', changer = 'a' WHERE report_id=4 and status<='1'",$connect_id);
     @ifx_free_result($sql);
     printf("%s", ifx_errormsg());

 

Table will be updated but also error message will be displayed "This descriptor does not exist. "

 

What is the problem?

According to IBM:

 

"-469 This descriptor does not exist.

 

The name of the system descriptor area that is specified does not exist

in the list of system descriptor areas, so it has not been allocated.

You must execute the ALLOCATE DESCRIPTOR statement to allocate this

descriptor name before you use it."
