Is there any way to print the actual query that mysqli->execute() makes?

I have a complex query that gets executed like this:

if ($stmt = $dbi->prepare($pt_query)) {   
        $stmt->bind_param('ssssssssi', $snome,$scognome,$ssocieta,$svia,$slocalita,$sprovincia,$scap,$stelefono,$sfax,$uid);
        $stmt->execute();           
        echo $dbi->error;
        $stmt->close();

    } else {
        printf("Error -> %s\n", $dbi->error);
    }

This thing is failing without any error, it simply doesn't update the database. Since there is a ton of data that gets treated before this thing I would like to know if there is any way to show the actual query that mysqli is executing in order to understand where the problem is.

Thank you.

If your statement is failing, you should check $stmt->error (as opposed to $dbi->error). As far as getting the actual text of the query: it's not possible. When using prepared statements, the library is using a special protocol that doesn't generate an actual query string for each ->execute() call.
