I have a function with hard-coded parameters to do the connection, and now I'm getting an error that says, "Can't connect to MySQL server on ...". The strangest thing is that while I can't connect if I run the script from the command line, or from the shell under Wing IDE, I can connect if I run the script under the IDLE shell. > > I noticed that the command line shell prints > > Python 2.7.2 (default, Jun 12 2011, 14:24:46) [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32 > Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. > > at startup, but the IDLE shell prints > > Python 2.7.2 (default, Jun 12 2011, 14:24:46) [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32 > Type "copyright", "credits" or "license()" for more information. > > So, while the first lines are identical, the second lines are different. Is this a different interpreter then? Can anyone tell me what the difference is? I'm hoping that may help me figure out what's gone wrong. You can check the value of `sys.executable` in each to see whether they're the same, and if not, where the other one is from. Cheers, Chris -- http://rebertia.com
