Unable to connect to ASE 16 with python 3.8 on RHEL8

[herve_bauchon]

Hi,

I've a ASE 16 installed on RHEL 8 with python3.8 and I'm unable to connect to the server with python.

If I do not specify the password with the default test.py, I have a Login Failed (normal behaviour) :

python test.py

Cannot raise error, context is NULL

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "test.py", line 55, in <module>

conn = sybpydb.connect(user='sa', password='')

sybpydb.ProgrammingError: ('Login failed.\n', 4002)

If I put the good password , it seems that the connection is done but I have the following error message :

python test.py

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "test_HBC.py", line 55, in <module>

conn = sybpydb.connect(dsn="user=sa;password=XXXXXXX")

sybpydb.ProgrammingError: ('ct_con_props(): user api layer: external error: An illegal value of 9234 given for parameter property.', 5)

MyASE version is Adaptive Server Enterprise/16.0 SP03 PL10/EBF 29808 SMP/P/x86_64/SLES 11.1/ase160sp03pl10x/3880/64-bit/FBO/Wed May 12 20:32:12 2021

I tried to use all sybpydb.py installed on my server, the latest I have is in $SYBASE /OCS-16_0/python/python34_64r/lib

My PYTHONPATH is (I also tried with other python3x_64r versions)

setenv PYTHONPATH ${SYBASE}/${SYBASE_OCS}/python/python37_64r/lib:${SYBASE}/${SYBASE_OCS}/lib

My PYthon version is :

Python 3.8.8 (default, Aug 11 2021, 06:52:42)

[GCC 8.5.0 20210514 (Red Hat 8.5.0-3)] on linux

Python 3.8 is not supported ? I should install python 3.7 instead ?thank you for your helpRegardsHervé

Hi,

Please note that Python 3.9 is now supported in ASE/SDK 16.0 SP04 PL02.

Hope this helps,
Ryan

Thank you for the confirmation.

however, we managed to make this connection work by removing the libraries used by our client application (Kondor) from the LD_LIBRARY_PATH used by our python program.

Currently Python 3.8 is not supported.

Current version of python we have built modules for:
~/ase1641$ cd OCS-16_0/python

~/ase1641/OCS-16_0/python$ ls

python26_64r python26ucs4_64r python31_64r python34_64r python37_64r

python26_64r = Python 2.6

python26ucs4_64r = Python 2.6

python31_64r = Python 3.1

python34_64r = Python 3.4

python37_64r = Python 3.7

We are currently trying to release a new python module for newer versions of python.

Hey, @ryan_hansen, can you please confirm that do other python version like 3.9 and above are supported or not?
