OK -- sorry to hear that things have gotten worse. In order to better help you, we'll need a) the complete script that's failing (assuming it's not 400 lines long), and b) the error(s) that you got. Ideally, the lines on the errors will line up with the source code.

You haven't mentioned if the data made it to the database OK (but it sounds like it did). I'm also wondering if you tried to insert the same row twice, causing the database to reject the second insert because it made for a duplicate primary key.
