ok,that makes sense.. is there a way to pass in -M from within a script (to itself)?

[web2py] Re: db.export_to_csv_file(file) failing on Windows?
quick question... I think i would like to run this script (export mssql db to cvs) with dal stand alone... since this ia production server I would want to run it as simple scheduled executable - just the script sitting on the gluon folder. Am I still able to force the script to look at the the module with the -M ?

ah, no, I was not using that, but will give it a go now :) thanks for that :) Here is something that I would like to understand and possibly fix (and maybe those cmd switches will fix it ?) While I was able to connect to the mssql db locally, doing db.tables returned an empty list... But, i could see the tables, etc, using something like razor... Could it be because of the state of the DB? its sitting on SQL server 2005, and I can almost guarantee that it was never maintained (at least don't see any evidence of that)... or maybe, that should not matter?

[web2py] Re: db.export_to_csv_file(file) failing on Windows?
This is the correct syntax. db.export_to_csv_file(open('somefile.csv', 'wb')) the problem is that db.does not see the models. Are you using? python -S app -M -N -R yourscript.py On Nov 15, 12:39 am, mart wrote: > Hi, > > Since connecting remotely is an issue for now, I went to the server > hosting the MSSQL DB. > > I am cinnecting fine (to localhost), but this cmd : > > db.export_to_csv_file('quickbuild.csv') > > is getting this error: > > File "C:\Documents and Settings\buildmonkey\Desktop\blue_framework > copy\src\mssql_test.py", line 33, in main > db.export_to_csv_file('quickbuild.csv') > ... > dal.py", line 2193, in export_to_csv_file > ofile.write('END') > AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'write' > > I did not get an error when doing verbatim what the book says: > > db.export_to_csv_file(open('somefile.csv', 'wb')) > > but this only yielded one word in the target file, 'END' > > Any idea what I should be looking at? > > Thanks, > Mart :)
