Hi,
Thanks for your email. Well I am kind of new to exceptions in Python,
but here is the code used below, as you can see it is somewhat basic.
Is there a way to display more information about the exception?
Best,
rod
try: #Exception handler for database queries
db = MySQLdb.connect(host=DBSERVERIP, user="user",
passwd="password", db="nuke")
except:
print "A database connection error has occurred"
return False
else:
#The rest of the program
