mysqldb interfaceError
- by Johanna
I have a very weird probleme with mysqldb (mysql module for python).
I have a file with queries for inserting records in tables. If I call the functions from the file, it works just fine. But when I try to call one of the functions from another file it throws me a
_mysql_exception.InterfaceError: (0, '')
I really don't get what I'm doing wrong here..
I call the function from buildDB.py :
import create
create.newFormat("HD", 0,0,0)
The function newFormat(..) is in create.py (imported) :
from Database import Database
db = Database()
def newFormat(name, width=0, height=0, fps=0):
format_query = "INSERT INTO Format (form_name, form_width, form_height, form_fps) VALUES ('"+name+"',"+str(width)+","+str(height)+","+str(fps)+");"
db.execute(format_query)
And the class Databse is the following :
import MySQLdb
from MySQLdb.constants import FIELD_TYPE
class Database():
def __init__(self):
server = "localhost"
login = "seq"
password = "seqmanager"
database = "Sequence"
my_conv = { FIELD_TYPE.LONG: int }
self.conn = MySQLdb.connection(host=server, user=login, passwd=password, db=database, conv=my_conv)
# self.cursor = self.conn.cursor()
def close(self):
self.conn.close()
def execute(self, query):
self.conn.query(query)
(I put only relevant code)
Traceback :
Z:\sequenceManager\mysql>python buildDB.py

,0,0);
Traceback (most recent call last):

The warning has never been a problem before so I don't think it's related.
