Here is the full error: (sorry)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/erik/Desktop/wa.py", line 178, in ?
curHandler.walkData()
File "/home/erik/Desktop/wa.py", line 91, in walkData
sql = """INSERT INTO ag ('cid', 'ag', 'test') VALUES(%i, %s, %d)""",
(cid.encode("utf-8"), ag, self.data[parent][child]['results']['test'])
AttributeError: 'long' object has no attribute 'encode'
sql = """INSERT INTO ag ('cid', 'ag', 'test') VALUES(%i, %s, %d)""",
(cid.encode("utf-8"), ag, self.data[parent][child]['results']['test'])
self.cursor.execute(sql)
Now, I changed all ofth e %i/%d to %s, and changed
self.cursor.execute(sql) to self.cursor.execute(*sql) and it seems to
be working now!
