using sqlalchemy 0.5.8, mysql 5.1 sql = text('select count(*) from :table) db.execute(sql, params=dict(table='mytable'))
Results in: sqlalchemy.exc.ProgrammingError: (ProgrammingError) (1064, "You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ''mytable'' at line 1") u'select count(*) from %s' ['mytable'] Is mytable being (single) quoted? How to properly invoke text() for this case? Thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sqlalchemy" group.
