What's happening is some database modules are not good Python citizens. By this, I mean that they raise exceptions that don't inherit from Python's Exception class. web2py only catches Exceptions. In the event of an non-Exception exception web2py's behavior is undefined. I built a wrapper class for my db2 network access and as part of my wrapper, I caught the special exceptions and raised more web2py friendly Exceptions.
The alternative is for web2py to catch all possible exceptions. Massimo, how would you want to handle that? -tim [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > web2py users, > > I'm using pyodbc, unixodbc and freetds to hit an MSSQL database. > > When I attempt to do a: > > a_sample_inventory = db(db.smp_inventory.smp_id == > request.vars.smp_id).select() > a_sample_inventory[0].update_record(status="present") > > I get: > > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "/home/larsenma/web2py/gluon/restricted.py", line 62, in > restricted > File "/usr/share/web2py/applications/hpv/controllers/home.py", line > 45, in <module> > File "/home/larsenma/web2py/gluon/globals.py", line 55, in <lambda> > File "/usr/share/web2py/applications/hpv/controllers/home.py", line > 40, in unreserve > db(a_sample_history[0]).delete() > File "/usr/share/web2py/gluon/sql.py", line 1110, in delete > self._db._execute(query) > File "/usr/share/web2py/gluon/sql.py", line 448, in <lambda> > self._execute=lambda *a,**b: self._cursor.execute(*a,**b) > ProgrammingError: ('42000', "[42000] [FreeTDS][SQL Server]Incorrect > syntax near '<'.
