I'm trying to make a log in system using PHP (5.4) I have two problems I can't seems to figure out. Problem one is when I try to long in using the system I get this warning
"Warning: mysql_num_rows() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in C:\xampp\htdocs\MyFirstProject\login.php on line 17"
Second problem I have is that instead of logging in it tell me my password or email address is incorrect even though I know that I'm typing in the practice email and password correctly.
I have looked over this code over and over and can't figure out whats wrong, also for now I have it dying just so I can debug it enough to get it to work then I'll move on to the next step. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
Code:
<?php
require("config.php");
if (isset($_POST['submitButton'])) {
if (!isset($_POST['email'])) {
die("<strong>Error:</strong> The email field was not set.");
} else if (!isset($_POST['password'])) {
die("<strong>Error:</strong> The password field ws not set.");
}
$password = hash("sha512", $_POST['password']);
$query = mysql_query("SELECT `id` FROM `users` WHERE `email` = '"
. mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['email']) . "' AND `passoword` = '"
. mysql_real_escape_string($password) . "'");
if (mysql_num_rows($query)) {
die("Login credentials correct!");
} else {
die("<strong>Error:</strong> Incorrect password or email address.");
}
}
?>
Check inside your query: there is a typo. Passoword instead of password.
