The following error message may appear due to a bug in DBD::mysql (over which the Bugzilla team have no control):
DBD::Sponge::db prepare failed: Cannot determine NUM_OF_FIELDS at D:/Perl/site/lib/DBD/mysql.pm line 248. SV = NULL(0x0) at 0x20fc444 REFCNT = 1 FLAGS = (PADBUSY,PADMY) |
To fix this, go to <path-to-perl>/lib/DBD/sponge.pm in your Perl installation and replace
my $numFields; if ($attribs->{'NUM_OF_FIELDS'}) { $numFields = $attribs->{'NUM_OF_FIELDS'}; } elsif ($attribs->{'NAME'}) { $numFields = @{$attribs->{NAME}}; |
with
my $numFields; if ($attribs->{'NUM_OF_FIELDS'}) { $numFields = $attribs->{'NUM_OF_FIELDS'}; } elsif ($attribs->{'NAMES'}) { $numFields = @{$attribs->{NAMES}}; |
(note the S added to NAME.)
