Hello, I am trying to implement an database program but I am having these problems for which i don't seem to find an answer.
1. One of my columns in table_x is : body text not null when i use python to create sql : INSERT INTO table_x( body)VALUES( '%s')" % (body) this body is a string that varies in size. I keep getting an error if the size of body is longer then 255, and if its smaller everything goes smooth. Is this syntax correct? should '%s' be something else? 2. I get an error when i close() a connection and then reopen it in the same program. Is there a way around it. Here is more details on what i do. main : do function 1 do function 2 function 1: open connection to db get cursor close cursor close connection function 2: open connection to db get cursor close cursor close connection go to sleep for 6 hours go to function 1 I need to disconnect and then connect to db. Is there a reason i get (0, '') as an exception error? I read in docs that you can't disconnect and then connect, is that true? And if so is there a way around it? The easiest way to do it would be to keep the connection alive but that would mean the database will be filled with inactive connection, that might disconnect.
