[Bug 369589] [NEW] kinterbasdb is not running with Firebird 2.1 database

[Michele Renda]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: python-kinterbasdb

Description:	Ubuntu 9.04
Release:	9.04

python-kinterbasdb
3.2-3ubuntu1 -> http://it.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/universe Packages

When I try to connect to db to firebird server (firebird2.1-classic) i
have:

(from python console...)
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import kinterbasdb
>>> db = kinterbasdb.connect(database='/tmp/test.fbd', user='sysdba', password='****')
>>> cursor=db.cursor()
>>> cursor.execute('select * from utenti')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
kinterbasdb.OperationalError: (-901, 'begin transaction: \n  invalid parameter in transaction parameter block')


Solution:

I found this solution from the maintainer (or better, the person that
now is taking care of the main fork of this module):

http://deformperspective.com/blog/2008/11/14/firebird-error-invalid-parameter-in-transaction-parameter-block/
http://www.firebirdfaq.org/faq121/

They suggest to use to use the new version of the file __init__.py token from:
https://firebird.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/firebird/qa/trunk/kinterbasdb/__init__.py

Best regards
Michele Renda
