I have a script that extracts several rows of data from an external file, I then need to upload each of these rows to a database. I put a query inside my loop but it does nothing. even with error reporting turned on I get nothing. I check the database but nothing is being uploaded.
What is the correct way to do this? Thanks in advance!
My Code:
$size = $_FILES['file']['size'];
$filename = $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'];
$max_filesize = 100000;
if($size > $max_filesize) //check file size
die('File is too large');
if(file_exists($filename)){
$fp = fopen($filename, "r");
$str = fread($fp, filesize($filename)); //file text stored in variable
$br = "\n"; //search for new row
$rows = substr_count($str,$br); //number of rows
echo "Rows: ". $rows."<br />";
$row = explode( "\n",$str);
$x=0;
while($x<=$rows)
{
$field = $row[$x];
$exp = explode("|",$field);
$case_number = $exp[1];
$unknown1 = $exp[2];
$chapter = $exp[3];
$filed = $exp[8];
//tons more variables, removed for readability
$addrow = mysql_query("INSERT INTO records (case_number, wild1, chapter, filed) VALUES('".$case_number."', '".$unknown1."', '".$chapter."', '".$filed."')");
if($addrow)
{
echo "<p style=\"font-weight:bold\">Row ".$x." uploaded</p>";
}else{
die(mysql_error());
}
$x++;
}
fclose($fp);
}

You have mentioned the error Duplicate entry for key 'PRIMARY'
so you cannot have a duplicate value in the column which is set to PRIMARY
.
