[Tutor] How to open a telnet session and have the python program write to it.
Hi, I am attempting a python program that will open a telnet session and input the username/password, cd to a certain directory and leave the session there. I have attempted different combinations of the os.popen etc but as soon as the telnet window is opened the program cannot be coaxed to write to the telnet session (window). I have attempted the telnetlib, but the problem is that the telnet window does not show up. Can anyone give me more info in this matter?

Re: [Tutor] Database connections don't stay alive
Hi there,
I have mainly used the psycopg module to connect. It seems to work quite
well.
quick example:
import psycopg
conn = psycopg.connect(dbname=mydatabase password= host=
user=)
cur = conn.cursor()
cur.execute('select * from transit;')
results = cur.fetchall()
Hope this helps,
Joe

Well, I asked about tutorials, but maybe this was not so good day,

So, good tutorials are still welcome, though I know now how to connect
to the Postgresql database. I just have some problems, though. With
MySQL I can do like this:
import MySQLdb
def connectDB():
try:
db = MySQLdb.connect(host='localhost', user='user',
db='pictures', passwd='passwd')
cursor = db.cursor()
return cursor
except:
print 'Error'
cursor = connectDB()
cursor.execute('SELECT * FROM categories')
print cursor.fetchall()
And everything works as I thought. But with Postgre, it seems that the
connection don't stay alive. I mean, with the same kind of code:
from pyPgSQL import PgSQL
def connectDB():
try:
db = PgSQL.connect(host='localhost', database='pictures',
user='user', password='passwd')
return db.cursor()
except:
print Error
cursor = connectDB()
cursor.execute(SELECT * FROM categories)
print cursor.fetchall()
The result is:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File test.py, line 23, in ?
cursor.execute(SELECT * FROM categories)
File /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pyPgSQL/PgSQL.py, line 2992,
in execute
raise InterfaceError, execute failed - the cursor is closed.
libpq.InterfaceError: execute failed - the cursor is closed.
So, what's the solution for this? I saw somewhere some mentions about
'connection pooling', what's that and how I'm supposed to use that?
It's quite hard to code when you don't have good manuals and have to
put together information from very different sources and try to make
it work... For example, this is from a manual I've used:
2.1.3.1 PQconnectdb
Syntax:
c = PQconnectdb(conninfo)
Where conninfo is a string containing connection information.
What the heck is 'conninfo', I mean, what's it's syntax? Yeah, I was
finally able to figure it out, but it took hours googling, trying and
stumbling.
Okay, okay, back to business. Hope that someone will be able to help me. :)
Yours sincerely,
