C# Update Table using SqlCommand.Parameters ASP.NET

C# Update Table using SqlCommand.Parameters

I'm trying to update an SQL Server table using SqlCommand, I think it's a syntax error with my T-SQL, but here is what I have so far:

SqlCommand sqlCmd = new SqlCommand(
   "UPDATE yak_tickets 
    SET email = @emailParam, subject = @subjectParam, text = @textParam, 
        statusid = @statusIDParam, ticketClass = @ticketClassParam 
    WHERE id = @ticketIDParam", sqlConn);

The parameters are working as they should, however, the table never gets updated when I run the code. Any help would be appreciated =)

Here is the rest of the code:

    #region Parameters
    /* Parameters */
    sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@ticketIDParam", SqlDbType.BigInt);
    sqlCmd.Parameters["@ticketIDParam"].Value = ticketID;

    sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@emailParam", SqlDbType.NVarChar);
    sqlCmd.Parameters["@emailParam"].Value = ticketToBeSubmitted.getEmail();

    sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@subjectParam", SqlDbType.NVarChar);
    sqlCmd.Parameters["@subjectParam"].Value = ticketToBeSubmitted.getSubject();

    sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@textParam", SqlDbType.Text);
    sqlCmd.Parameters["@textParam"].Value = ticketToBeSubmitted.getTicketContent();

    sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@statusIDParam", SqlDbType.NVarChar);
    sqlCmd.Parameters["@statusIDParam"].Value = ticketToBeSubmitted.getStatus();

    sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@ticketClassParam", SqlDbType.NVarChar);
    sqlCmd.Parameters["@ticketClassParam"].Value = ticketToBeSubmitted.getTicketClass();
    #endregion

    #region Try/Catch/Finally
    /* Try/Catch/Finally */

    try
    {
        sqlConn.Open();
        sqlCmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
    }
    catch (SqlException sqlEx)
    {
        sqlErrorLabel.Text = sqlEx.ToString();
        sqlErrorLabel.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Red;
    }
    finally
    {
        sqlConn.Close();
    }

And the method's signature:

  public static void updateTicketInDatabase(Ticket ticketToBeSubmitted, Label sqlErrorLabel, int ticketID)

I've run this through a profiler, and what it does, is the following.

Page Loads ->
Audit Login: -- Sets a bunch of stuff (irrelevant)
SQL:BatchStarting -- SELECT * from yak_tickets
SQL:BatchCompleted -- SELECT * from yak_tickets
Audit Logout


Button Click Event ->
RPC:Completed: -- exec sp_reset_connection
Audit Login: -- Sets some more stuff
SQL:BatchStarting -- SELECT * from yak_tickets
SQL:BatchCompleted -- SELECT * from yak_tickets

Here is the code behind file for the form.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using YakStudios_Support.Includes;

namespace YakStudios_Support.ys_admin
{
    public partial class UpdateTicket : System.Web.UI.Page
    {
        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            int ticketID = Convert.ToInt32(Request.QueryString["ticketID"]); // Grabs the ?ticketid number from the URL
            Ticket ticketBeingUpdated = TicketDatabase.selectTicketFromDatabase(sqlErrorLabel, 1); // Creates a new Ticket object to be used by the form to populate the text boxes

            /* Form Field Population */
            // Email
            emailTxt.Text = ticketBeingUpdated.getEmail();

            // Date Submitted
            dateSubText.Text = ticketBeingUpdated.getDateSubmitted().ToString();

            // Ticket Class
            classDropDown.SelectedValue = ticketBeingUpdated.getTicketClass();

            // Ticket Status
            statusDrop.SelectedValue = ticketBeingUpdated.getStatus();

            // Subject
            subjectTxt.Text = ticketBeingUpdated.getSubject();

            // Text
            textTxt.Text = ticketBeingUpdated.getTicketContent();
        }

        protected void editBtn_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            emailTxt.Enabled = true;
            dateSubText.Enabled = true;
            classDropDown.Enabled = true;
            statusDrop.Enabled = true;
            subjectTxt.Enabled = true;
            textTxt.Enabled = true;
        }

        protected void submitBtn_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            int ticketID = Convert.ToInt32(Request.QueryString["ticketID"]); // Grabs the ?ticketid number from the URL
            DateTime convertedDate = Convert.ToDateTime(dateSubText.Text);
            Ticket ticketUpdated = new Ticket(emailTxt.Text, convertedDate, subjectTxt.Text, textTxt.Text, statusDrop.SelectedValue, classDropDown.SelectedValue);
            //Ticket ticketUpdated = new Ticket(emailTxt.Text, subjectTxt.Text, textTxt.Text, classDropDown.SelectedValue);
            Response.Write(TicketDatabase.updateTicketInDatabase(ticketUpdated, sqlErrorLabel, 1));
            //Response.Redirect("ticketqueue.aspx");
        }
    }
}

What it seems to me like it's doing, is it's running my select method again, which is what it is supposed to do when the page loads. Is this being caused by the button refreshing the page?

Answer 1

Looking at the code I don't see a COMMIT in there anywhere. I'm not sure if the connection commits automatically when closed but you might want to add a commit after your update.

Answer 2

Add a break point at ExecuteNonQuery, inspect your sqlCommand object , take a look at the parameters with the sqlcommand and make sure TicketId is being set to what you expect it to, since your update is driven by the ticketId, ensure it is being set correctly, or try running the TSQL equivalent directly on SQL server, my guess is that your ticketId variable isn't being set, code looks fine at first glance.
