Hi all, I helped one of my co-workers put together an XMLRPC Python script that allowed him to get database data from remote machines. This was done because the source of the data could be Oracle on a Sun/Solaris machine, and MySQL on our linux machines. Doing the script in Python allowed him to gather the date with a general purpose API and just send over some SQL queries.
Since then he's run into a problem. If he sends a query that gets a very large recordset from the database the script fails and it vaguely reports about a "broken pipe", which I'm guessing is a problem with the network connection. Has anyone else seen this use XMLRPC and Python and large amounts of data being returned via XMLRPC? And if so, is there a solution? Thanks, Doug -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
