Ok. I have a PyQt program using mysql as a database with mysqldb as my 
database client. I'm spawning qt threads to do all the work before I call a 
postevent to let my application know I'm done. 
 
It turns out, however, that the thread locks in the middle of my run() call 
and never completes. I'm cross-posting this message as I'm not familiar with 
Python extension modules and I don't know if PyQt could have caused this, it 
is a Python bug (or feature) or if there is a problem in the mysqldb module 
code. 
 
Here's my run call: 
 
 def run(self): 
 """ called after the thread is spawned """ 
 try: 
 
 # never makes it through the quick_find_customer call.... 
 self.data = quick_find.quick_find_customer(self.parameters) 
 print "quick find returned:",self.data 
 
 event = QCustomEvent(self.eventID) 
 event.setData(self.data) 
 
 QThread.postEvent(self.receiver,event) 
 
 except Exception, msg: 
 print msg 
 
 
I traced through everything and it seems to be blocking in the mysql code: 
 
 def _execute(self, query, args): 
 # makes it into the function but ... 
 from types import ListType, TupleType 
 from sys import exc_info 
 # it never makes it this far.... 
 try: 
 if args is None: 
 r = self._query(query) 
 
Once it locks, I get the following backtrace (using a full debug build of 
Python/PyQt/etc.):

So does anyone have any idea what's wrong or how to fix it? Please email me as 
well if you aren't posting to the PyQt/Python list (kibab at icehouse dot 
net).
