IIRC, per Python DB-API PEP, the DB adapter you use try to escape and
quote any parameter you specified. Please try to use python parameters,
that are "% (param1, param2, ...)", only for values; not for any other
Edit: «% (param1, param2, ...)» part must be replaced with
«"query_str", param1, param2, ...»
place in the query string.
To summarize, you can only use parameters for values, not keys.
...
ah ok so how do i do it :/
Just don't pass username as parameter to Cursor.execute(), for instance:
cur.execute("CREATE USER %s WITH PASSWORD %s IN GROUP %s"
% (StaffUserName, NewPassword, StaffGroup))
Regards.
P.S. Please don't forget to CC mailing list next time. Also, -interface
ml is more appropriate for these kind of questions.
of course, i should have seen that to begin with, cheers.
