I discovered by running
SHOW PROCESSLIST
in MySQL that even though I executed\ORM::reset_db()
the connections were still hanging and wouldn't be closed until MySQL closed them. This was causingerrno=32 Broken pipe
errors when using Idiorm with a long running script. Even thoughself::$_db
is assigned a new array, not assigningnull
seems to make PDO try to reuse old connections, which had been closed by MySQL, causing the aforementionedBroken pipe
error. To make sure PDO closes connections they must be set tonull
, from the docs:Setting
self::$_db
tonull
before assigning a new array ensured that PDO did really close the connection on\ORM::reset_db()
and I verified it on MySQL usingSHOW PROCESSLIST
, and by the absence of errors in my script.
