LogError("DB_Connect start connecting");
g_Db = SQL_Connect(SQLTable, false, Error, sizeof(Error));
LogError("DB_Connect connected");

This is crashing my server if the database is offline! I see only "DB_Connect start connecting" in the logs and the server is directly crashing after the startup. If the database is running, there are no problems. Anything I could do against the crash? Don't want to crash my server, just because the database is not running.

Try using SQL_TConnect

Okay, thanks. That looks good. Having a callback should handle this.

If I'm combining this correct, I have to rewrite a lot more than just the "T" in SQL_Connect.

Example code:

PHP Code:

Handle g_Db = null;

public void OnPluginStart()
{
    SQL_TConnect(SQLCallback_OnConnect, "blah");
}

public void SQLCallback_OnConnect(Handle owner, Handle hndl, const char[] error, any data)
{
    if (hndl == null || strlen(error) > 0) {
        LogError("Connection to database failed: %s", error);
    }
    else
    {
        g_Db = hndl;

        // Your code...
    }
}
