Courses Plus Student 3,735 PointsWhat am I missing? The error I’m getting is that there is no Exception class
I’ve watched the video, checked my Workspace, researched online for other examples and read through the documentation, and I still can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong.
<?php
//Place your code below this comment
try{
$db = new PDO('sqlite::memory');
$db->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
} catch(Exception $e) {
echo $e->getMessage;
}
?>

try {
// your code;
} catch(Exception $e) {
echo "error";
}
Team Treehouse, "There is no Exception class" is not helpful.

It should be PDOException

Courses Plus Student 3,735 PointsThanks, I had tried this too, and it should’ve taken it in my opinion. But as Remylus mentioned, the quiz expected a simpler answer.
