Hi,

Anyone know how to create a sqlite database from PHP code? I am trying
the code below:

try
{
//create or open the database
$database = new SQLiteDatabase('myDatabase.db', 0666, $error);
}
catch(Exception $e)
{
die($error);
}

But when I try to access this database with the sqlite browser, it
tthrows an error saying the "file is not a SQL3 Database"

Error at the following link
http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/259/errortz.png/

I then created the database manually from the sqlite command line and
tried to access it with PDO in PHP. I was able to do this, but again I
also want to be able to CREATE A DATABASE be it with PDO or
SQLiteDatabase.
Any help will be appreciated!

What's all this rubbish?

Try:


$connstr = "sqlite:" . $name_of_my_db;
$dbh = new PDO ($connstr);

$dbh->setAttribute (PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_SILENT);

and then to use it:

$res = $dbh->query ($sql);

if ($res===false)
{
$earray = $dbh->errorInfo ();
// Then $earray[0] has error code, more info in [1] and [2]
}

and so on. Have you not looked at the PHP website docs?

A completely different interface, Tim. The op's code should work.

It should work. What version of PHP are you using, and what version of
the sqlite browser are you using?

Your problem could easily be something as simple as a back level browser
not compatible with a newer version of SQLite (or a lot of other things).

Additionally, depending on the OS you're using, does the Sqlite browser
have permission to access the file created by PHP? Often times,
especially in Linux/Unix, the browser has different privileges than the
CLI user.

You might try downloading this, which is a single open source PHP file which
performs pretty much all SQLite database functions:

http://code.google.com/p/phpliteadmin/

I also downloaded an SQLite browser with a Windows GUI that is useful for
creating databases:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/sqlitebrowser/

I have modified the phpliteadmin script to remove some features and add
others. It's well documented and actively supported by the developer, and
it's a good way to get a jump start on a useful server application.

Maybe. But I know nothing of SQLiteDatabase, and the OP said this:

So as requested, I indicated how to do it with PDO.

There's a new version of the browser:

Is sqlite the same as sqlite3?

Following up:

<?php
//
// can sqlite open sqlite3 files and vice versa?
//

echo "sql3 create, write, read\n";
$db = new SQLite3('mysqlitedb3.db');
if ($db)
{
$db->exec('CREATE TABLE foo (bar STRING)');
$db->exec("INSERT INTO foo (bar) VALUES ('This is a test')");
$result = $db->query('SELECT bar FROM foo');
if ($result) var_dump($result->fetchArray());
else echo $db->lastErrorMsg()."\n";
}

echo "sql create, write, read\n";
if ($db = sqlite_open('mysqlitedb.db', 0666, $sqliteerror))
{
sqlite_query($db, 'CREATE TABLE foo (bar varchar(10))');
sqlite_query($db, "INSERT INTO foo VALUES ('fnord')");
$result = sqlite_query($db, 'select bar from foo');
var_dump(sqlite_fetch_array($result));
}
else
{
die($sqliteerror);
}

echo "sql read sql3 db\n";
if ($db = sqlite_open('mysqlitedb3.db', 0666, $sqliteerror))
{
$result = sqlite_query($db, 'select bar from foo');
var_dump(sqlite_fetch_array($result));
}
else
{
echo $sqliteerror."\n";
}

echo "sql3 read sql db\n";
$db = new SQLite3('mysqlitedb.db');
if ($db)
{
$result = $db->query('SELECT bar FROM foo');
if ($result) var_dump($result->fetchArray());
else echo $db->lastErrorMsg()."\n";
}
?>

Run from the command line:

=======================================================================
$ php sqlite3sqlite.php
sql3 create, write, read
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(14) "This is a test"
["bar"]=>
string(14) "This is a test"
}
sql create, write, read
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(5) "fnord"
["bar"]=>
string(5) "fnord"
}
sql read sql3 db
PHP Warning: sqlite_open(): file is encrypted or is not a database in /
home/denis/tmp/sqlite3sqlite.php on line 28
file is encrypted or is not a database
sql3 read sql db
PHP Warning: SQLite3::query(): Unable to prepare statement: 26, file is
encrypted or is not a database in /home/denis/tmp/sqlite3sqlite.php on
line 42
file is encrypted or is not a database
$
=======================================================================

So I'm guessing that the problem here may be that the OP is trying to mix
and match sqlite and sqlite3 databases, and the databases aren't having
it.
