[Zope] MySQL, Zope 2.3.1, Python 2.0, Solairs problems

[John Warburton]

Hi,

I have a difficulty with using the ZMySQLDA, the MySQL python extension 
(latest version), MySQL's current version, Zope 2.3.1 with Python 2.0 on 
Solaris 8 for Intel x86.

Queries involving a SELECT to the DB all fail with "AttributeError: 
rollback" -- this happens whether or not the tables are capable of doing 
rollbacks -- and the database connection always reports "Transactions 
are disabled".

Worse, when I try the query "show tables" or "describe <dbname>", Python 
dumps core, having received a signal 9, SIGKILL.

Apart from this, the system seems very stable indeed. I don't understand 
what's going on.

Everything was compiled today, using gcc-2.95.3 and the Sun-supplied 
versions of the binary utilities. I've compiled this lot on Intel x86 / 
Linux without trouble, though haven't tested the MySQL connections on 
such a platform.

Could anyone give a pointer as to how to debug this please?

Thank you,
John Warburton
