unchecked-rows-error

Default severity: error

Rows.Next returns false both when iteration finishes successfully and when an iteration error occurs. Check Rows.Err after the loop so driver, network, and decoding failures are not silently treated as successful completion.

Bad

for rows.Next() { scan(rows) }

Good

for rows.Next() { scan(rows) }; if err := rows.Err(); err != nil { return err }
