Since it was a byte string sent to the database and a Unicode string coming back, the solution would be to .decode() the byte string. However, I doubt that's the issue; that's being done for you implicitly by the lower-level connections. Also, in Python 2: >>> u'testbh3' == 'testbh3' True So that's not your primary problem. You could try that, but I doubt it'll solve anything for you. Are you able to switch to Python 3, though? If you are, Unicode issues tend to be a lot easier to resolve there. ChrisA
