db2_conn_errormsg Returns the last connection error message and SQLCODE value &reftitle.description; stringdb2_conn_errormsg resourceconnection db2_conn_errormsg returns an error message and SQLCODE value representing the reason the last database connection attempt failed. As db2_connect returns &false; in the event of a failed connection attempt, do not pass any parameters to db2_conn_errormsg to retrieve the associated error message and SQLCODE value. If, however, the connection was successful but becomes invalid over time, you can pass the connection parameter to retrieve the associated error message and SQLCODE value for a specific connection. &reftitle.parameters; connection A connection resource associated with a connection that initially succeeded, but which over time became invalid. &reftitle.returnvalues; Returns a string containing the error message and SQLCODE value resulting from a failed connection attempt. If there is no error associated with the last connection attempt, db2_conn_errormsg returns an empty string. &reftitle.examples; Retrieving the error message returned by a failed connection attempt The following example demonstrates how to return an error message and SQLCODE value after deliberately passing invalid parameters to db2_connect. ]]> &example.outputs; &reftitle.seealso; db2_conn_error db2_connect db2_stmt_error db2_stmt_errormsg
