I'm pretty new to web development as a whole and am planning to make a website for people playing the game EVE Online to use but have encountered some difficulty trying to access the database dump that CCP Games has released. The database dump is available here<https://www.fuzzwork.co.uk/dump/>in a SQLite, MySQL and PostGres. I use Win7 with minimal rights so if I have to use MySQL or PostGres to fix this problem it has to be able to install and run without admin rights.
When accessing the database in the sqlite3 executable everything work perfectly, all that's needed to load the file is a .open sqlite-latest.sqlite and it just works. When opening the database file using the web2py DAL, it appears to load the file properly but doesn't know of any the tables that exist. This appears to be working as intended, but is a problem I can't figure out how to solve. When I try to manually define one of the tables I know exists (list of existing tables found here<http://wiki.eve-id.net/Category:CCP_DB_Tables>), I receive the error: sqlite3.OperationError: table invTypes already exists. The code I used to do this is as follows: from os.path import join, exists from httplib import HTTPException from gluon.sql import DAL, Field from gluon.validators import * import eveapi import datetime api = eveapi.EVEAPIConnection() db = DAL('sqlite://sqlite-latest.sqlite') #---------------------------------------------------------------------------- db.define_table('invTypes') I haven't figured out how to run a python file as part of an application, so I just make a test.py file inside the root web2py director and run it from command line ("py.exe test.py"). Does anyone know anything I could use to access this database?
