Question

I am getting this error when I run my program in Python.
Here’s the table of my database :

Field           Type            Collation       Null        Key     Default     
articleCode   varchar(25)    latin1_swedish_ci   NO         UNI                                                
dateReceived   datetime            NULL          NO         MUL     0000-00-00 00:00:00                  
s100RSD        datetime            NULL          YES                0000-00-00 00:00:00        
remarks        longtext      latin1_swedish_ci   YES                        

And to simplify the problem of my program, I will isolate the part of the program that makes an error, here:

import MySQLdb

def main():
    dateReceived = '2011-10-07 01:06:30'
    articleCode = 'name'
    s100rsd = '2011-10-07 01:06:30'
    remark_text = 'This is a remark'
    db = MySQLdb.connect('server', 'user', 'passwd', 'table_name', port)
    cur = db.cursor()
    db_query = cur.execute("INSERT INTO tblS100CurrentListing (articleCode, dateReceived, s100RSD, remarks) VALUES ('articleCode', 'dateReceived', 's100rsd', 'remark_text')")
    cur.close()
    db.close()

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

Here’s the error that I get : _mysql_exceptions.IntegrityError: (1062, “Duplicate entry ‘2147483647’ for key 1”)

Thanks for all your help!

Answer 1

You seem to be inserting constants into the database, not your actual values. Instead, try something similar to;

db_query = cur.execute("INSERT INTO tblS100CurrentListing " +
    "(articleCode, dateReceived, s100RSD, remarks) VALUES (%s, %s, %s, %s)", 
    (articleCode, dateReceived, s100rsd, remark_text))
