My platform:

Ubuntu 10.04
Python 2.6.5
UnixODBC 2.2.11-21
pyodbc 2.1.8
SQLAlchemy 0.6.6

I can run simple tests scripts without a problem. However, I have experienced some kind of crash doing some unit tests on a Python web application.

The error appears with both the FreeTDS version that ships with my distro (0.82-1build6) as well as a CVS version I compiled myself.

Here is the error in context of some SQLAlchemy debugging output:

2011-04-07 10:48:42,514 INFO sqlalchemy.engine.base.Engine.0x...a350 SELECT auth_users.id AS auth_users_id, auth_users.createdts AS auth_users_createdts, auth_users.updatedts AS auth_users_updatedts, auth_users.username AS auth_users_username, auth_users.username_inactive AS auth_users_username_inactive, auth_users.authsrc_uid AS auth_users_authsrc_uid, auth_users.alternate_uid AS auth_users_alternate_uid, auth_users.name_first AS auth_users_name_first, auth_users.name_middle AS auth_users_name_middle, auth_users.name_last AS auth_users_name_last, auth_users.phone AS auth_users_phone, auth_users.email AS auth_users_email, auth_users.inactive_flag AS auth_users_inactive_flag, auth_users.inactive_date AS auth_users_inactive_date, auth_users.password_expires AS auth_users_password_expires, auth_users.wfh_flag AS auth_users_wfh_flag, auth_users.wfh_ca_key AS auth_users_wfh_ca_key, auth_users.wfh_ext_reason AS auth_users_wfh_ext_reason, auth_users.wfh_ext_url AS auth_users_wfh_ext_url, auth_users.wfh_ext_link_text AS auth_users_wfh_ext_link_text, auth_users.auth_source_id AS auth_users_auth_source_id

I then have to kill the process.

The TDS dumps are here:

http://rcs-comp.com/tmp/freetds-091CVS.log
http://rcs-comp.com/tmp/freetds-082.log

I haven't taken the time to try and narrow down the test case because I am hoping the dumps will be sufficient to track down the problem. However, if needed, I can try to do that, its just going to be difficult b/c its buried in test setup.
