Hi,
I am using SQLObject-0.8dev_r1814, MySQLdb 1.2.1_p2 and MySQL 5.0.22
on Arch Linux.
I am using fields of type UnicodeCol. When I try to insert such object
to the database I get
an exception which originates in MySQLdb:
File
"/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/SQLObject-0.8dev_r1814-py2.4.egg/sqlobject/mysql/mysqlconnection.py",
line 66, in _executeRetry
return cursor.execute(query)
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/MySQLdb/cursors.py", line
146, in execute
query = query.encode(charset)
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xd7 in position
196: ordinal not in range(128)
I tried to pass the data both as unicode strings and as normal strings
with utf8 encoding.
It seems like SQLObject is sending the query to MySQLdb as a normal
string, encoded in utf8. But, MySQLdb excepts it to be a unicode
string, because lines 145-156 in cursors.py are:
charset = db.character_set_name()
query = query.encode(charset)
Also, it turns out that the value of charset is 'latin1'. I am not
sure why it is so, but I could force it to be 'utf8' if I changed the
connect() call in makeConnection() method of mysqlconnection.py to
have a keyword argument charset='utf8'.
Of course it does not help, since SQLObject already sends an encoded string.
Any Ideas?
Thanks,
Nadav
