[Zope] In desparate need of some help

2001-01-16 Thread alankirk



Hi there, i am new to zope and i'm in 
need of some help. I'm using zope as part of my final year project for 
university. I am using zope with a database i've constructed using MySQL. I've 
been having trouble sending queries to MySQL for data from the tables in the DB, 
instead of the required data i get an error message window appear and my python 
server crashes(which is running on my machine, by the way i'm using version 
2.2.2 of zope on windows ME). Somethimes the error message is blank, other times 
it's PYTHON15.DLL or MYSQL.DLL when it crashes. Also when i submit a query to 
adddata to a tablezope returns what appears to be a error message in 
my browser, which the zope control panel is using, but the data is still added 
to my DB table.
When submitting a query to extract data, if my 
python server doesn't crash, zope returns the following:
Error, MySQL.error: have an error in your SQL 
syntax near ' '', '', '', 2000 )' at line 3 

SQL used:SELECT * FROM songdetails
WHERE(
 '',
 '',
 '',
 '',
 2000
 )

I'd be most grateful if you could provide some 
answers to any of these probelms as soon as you can. Even if you don't know if 
you could point me in the direction of someone who does.

Cheers

Alan

Hmm... not sure about this.  All I can suggest is you check to see if MySQL 
or Python have issues with WindowsME...  (wow, people actually run that ??:)

 Also when i submit a query
 to add data to a table zope returns what appears to be a error message in
 my browser, which the zope control panel is using, but the data is still
 added to my DB table. When submitting a query to extract data, if my python
 server doesn't crash, zope returns the following: Error, MySQL.error: have

My first recommendation would be to grab yourself a good book on SQL.  
O'Reilly  Assoc "MySQL  mSQL" is a good reference in your case.  The 
problem with  your select statement is it is incorrect.  It should be in the 
form:

SELECT field list FROM table
WHERE fieldcomparisonvalue
[AND|OR] fieldcomparisonvalue
...

so, in your particular case, I would guess:

SELECT * FROM songdetails
WHERE fifthFieldName = 2000

 ---
- SQL used:

 SELECT * FROM songdetails
 WHERE(
  '',
  '',
  '',
  '',
  2000
  )

 I'd be most grateful if you could provide some answers to any of these
 probelms as soon as you can. Even if you don't know if you could point me

Have a better one,

Not sure why you're crashing but your SQL looks incorrect and incomplete. It
should be something more like:

select * from songdetails
where
some_field='' and
some_other_field = 2000
...
;

Hope this helps,
