pysqlite problem

[bapolis]

Hello,

I'm getting the following error:

pysqlite2.dbapi2.OperationalError: no such table: tbl1

Here's my code:

from pysqlite2 import dbapi2 as sqlite
con = sqlite.connect(":memory:", detect_types=sqlite.PARSE_COLNAMES)
cur = con.cursor()
cur.execute("select * from tbl1")
data = cursor.fetchall()
for record in date:
record[0], record[1]

my installation versions:

python 2.4.2
pysqlite 2.0.7
sqlite 3.3.4

I checked to make sure I have a table called tbl1. I don't understand
what's going on. Any ideas?

[bapolis]

my bad. that was the wrong code, here is my code:

from pysqlite2 import dbapi2 as sqlite
con = sqlite.connect("ex1")
cur = con.cursor()
cur.execute("select * from tbl1")
print cur.fetchall()

Is it the complete code ?

If so then you have to create the table each time you connect to the
DB.

You use an in-memory DB (":memory:") so all the data of the DB is lost
when you close the connection, including the schema of the DB.

OK, it's better.

You use relative path to your file 'ex1', are you really sure that you
open the right file and not creating another DB in another path ?

Try to use absolute path (r'c:\temp\ex1').

where?

last time I checked, connect(":memory:") creates a new blank database
every time it is called.

^^^^^^^^^^

Did you really intend this? Since you're opening a database in memory, you
will have access to tbl1 only if you create the table after the connect.

I tried using the path "c:\ex1.db" and it worked. I was using "ex1.db"
before.

Thanks everyone for the help. This is a great community and maybe next
time I will ask a harder question :)
