 * I want to insert data into the table ‘cls_users’ of an external Mysql database.
   
   I started with this:
 *     ```
       try {
       		$cmsadb = new wpdb(CMSA_USERNAME, CMSA_PASSWORD, CMSA_DATABASE, CMSA_HOSTNAME);
       		$cmsadb->show_errors();
       	} catch (Exception $e)	{
       		writeLogWP("Connection error: " . $e->getMessage());
       	}
       ```
   
 * with no error; then I tryed to insert into table ‘cls_users’:
 *     ```
       $name = 'john';
       $email = 'john@example.com';
       $result = $cmsadb->insert('cls_users',
       			array(
       				'name' => $name,'mail' => $email));
       ```
   
 * But got $result = false.
    What am I do wrong? Thanks
