PHP errors -> Warning: mysqli_stmt::execute(): Couldn't fetch mysqli_stmt | Warning: mysqli_stmt::close()

Question

I keep getting this error while trying to modify some tables. Here's my code:

/**  <- line 320

        &$order_count, &$guest_count){

    $sucess = false;
    if(sizeof($guests_array) >= 1){
        //$this->mysqli->autocommit(FALSE);
        //insert the guests into guest, person, order, seat
        $menu_stmt = $this->mysqli->prepare("SELECT id FROM menu WHERE

Answer 1

I don't think it will work this way. When you close the statement (e.g. $menu_stmt->close();) you also deallocate the statement handle. So the second time through the loop you don't have the prepared statements available to work with anymore.

Try closing the statements after the loop has finished executing.
