I assume you're using mysql_ping() to retrieve the server connection, that being true/false.

I also assume you're using R7 and above, therefore I have made a piece of code:

pawn Код:

new handle = -1; // at top of script somewhere, before OnGameModeInit

OnGameModeInit(playerid)
{
    handle = mysql_connect("hn", "un", "db", "pw");
    
    if(handle)
    {
        print("[MYSQL] Connection Successful.");
    }
    else
    {
        print("[MYSQL] Connection Unsuccessful.");
    }
    
    //rest of OnGameModeInit code here
}

Queries are threaded, meaning you'd do them like this(R7 -> R30 something)
mysql_function_query(connectionHandle, query[], bool:cache, callback[], format[], {Float,_}:..);

As of R33 or something they're like this:
mysql_tquery(...);

Or use the new ORM(object Relational Mapping) system, but there are tutorials for that.

EDIT #1:

Stay with R7! It's not too different and the speed difference is quite amazing. It's a ton better dude and easier to understand. But if you'd like to stay with R6-2 then feel free
