MySQL Error 2056: Indirect Statement Closure
Description
MySQL Error 2056 indicates that a prepared statement was indirectly closed or invalidated by a preceding operation, typically another function call on the same connection or statement object. This error occurs when your application attempts to use a statement handle that is no longer active or valid.
Error Message
Statement closed indirectly because of a preceding %s() call
Known Causes
4 known causesConnection Closed
The underlying database connection associated with the prepared statement was closed, either explicitly by the application or due to a network issue, leading to the statement's indirect closure.
Duplicate Statement Closure
Another part of the application explicitly called a function (e.g., `mysql_stmt_close()`) to close the statement handle, making subsequent attempts to use it invalid.
Out-of-Scope Statement
In some client libraries, statement objects are automatically closed when they go out of scope (e.g., destructor calls), causing this error if the statement is accessed afterwards.
Connection Loss
The connection to the MySQL server was lost unexpectedly (e.g., network outage, server restart), causing all associated statements to be implicitly closed.
