I am just getting into pysqlite (with a fair amount of Python and MySQL experience behind me) and have coded a simple test case to try to get the hang of things... yet have run into a 'stock simple' problem...
I can create a database 'test.db', add a table 'foo' (which BTW I repeatedly DROP on each run) with one INTGER column 'id', and can insert data into with: cur.execute("INSERT INTO foo (id) VALUES (200)") con.commit() (and fetch back out) all with no problem. But... If I try to expand this to: num = 200 cur.execute("INSERT INTO foo (id) VALUES (?)", num) I get the error... Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/rdrink/Programming/Python/Inner_Square/sqlite_test.py", line 46, in ? cur.execute("INSERT INTO foo (id) VALUES (?)", num) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/sqlite/main.py", line 255, in execute self.rs = self.con.db.execute(SQL % parms) TypeError: not all arguments converted during string formatting ... which obviously points to a 'typing' problem. ?? but where ?? >From all the docs I have read Python 'int' and sqlite INTEGER should pass back and forth seemlessly... And I have even tried to reduce things to simply: cur.execute("INSERT INTO foo (id) VALUES (?)", 200) but still raise the same error. So this has to be something stupidly simple... but for the life of me I can't see it. Advice, suggestions, pointers for the noob? rd -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
