Unexpected termination of program when using JDBC drivers in python with jaydebeapi

[skarface19]

I am trying to connect to a solid DB using JDBC drivers and the program just prints "point - 0" and quits. I cannot do anything because the frustrating thing is it doesn't even raise exception so how can I understand what is wrong? If someone can at least guide me how to raise an exception it would be appreciated. Somehow the program is crashing in the connection.

import jaydebeapi   # Path to the Solid JDBC driver JAR file jdbc_driver_jar = "C:\\Solid\\SolidDriver2.0.jar"   # JDBC URL for connecting to Solid jdbc_url = "jdbc:solid://xxxxcorpdb03.corporate.intra:1865/SOLDBC"   # JDBC driver class name jdbc_driver_class = "com.solid.jdbc.SolidDriver"   # Database username and password username = "xxxx" password = "xxx"   # Establishing the connection using JayDeBeApi print('point - 0') try:     connection = jaydebeapi.connect(     jdbc_driver_class,     jdbc_url,     [username, password],     jdbc_driver_jar) except Exception as e:     raise e finally:     print ('finally')     print('point - 1') cursor = connection.cursor() print('point - 2') cursor.execute("SELECT * FROM discount") results = cursor.fetchall() print(results)   cursor.close() connection.close()

There's no reason for all of this:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

try:     connection = jaydebeapi.connect(     jdbc_driver_class,     jdbc_url,     [username, password],     jdbc_driver_jar) except Exception as e:     raise e finally:     print ('finally')

Leave out the try/except/finally, and if jaydebeapi.connect raises an exception, you will see the error message and the trace.

There are ill behaved packages that raise a SystemException (sys.exit(), exit(), quit()) when they run into an problem. You can catch those like this:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

import sys import traceback   try:     # Replace sys.exit(1) with code you want to execute.     sys.exit(1) except SystemExit:     print(traceback.format_exc())

Error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "catchexittest.py", line 7, in <module>
    sys.exit(1)
SystemExit: 1

Why are you using jaydebeapi (a python interface to a java interface to an oracle database) instead of python-oracledb, a package designed by oracle to be used with Python, or other Python/oracle database packages?

The reason I put the try/except/finally is to try and get some exception. I am using jaydebeapi because I want to connect to an IBM Solid DB with java drivers. The other option is ODBC drivers. I managed to get the ODBC drivers to work but they require more client config. Thanks a lot for your help so far, I will try the traceback and let you know! :)
