Are 'mmz', 'pass1', and 'localhost' the actual values you want for

username, password, and hostname? If so, don't pass them through

config.get() at all - just use them directly. In fact, I'd be inclined

to just stuff them straight into the Database_list_command literal;

that way, it's clear how they're used, and the fact that you aren't

escaping them in any way isn't going to be a problem (tip: an

apostrophe in your password would currently break your script).



It's also worth noting that the ~/ notation is a shell feature. You

may or may not be able to use it in config.read().

Thanks Chris. you are right.
So I used them directly and removed configParser. The new error is:

Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "./bbk.py", line 11, in ?
     for database in os.popen(database_list_command).readlines():
NameError: name 'database_list_command' is not defined

any idea?

Check the spelling (remember that the name is case-sensitive).
