sqlalchemy无法连接到ms sql服务器

Question

Trying to connect to SQL server using SQLAlchemy with pyodbc (freeTDS) as the driver; The connections succeeds if I use pyodbc directly:

>>> import pyodbc
>>> conn = pyodbc.connect('DSN=serverdsn;UID=user;PWD=password')
>>> crsr = conn.cursor()
>>> rows = crsr.execute("select @@VERSION").fetchall()
>>> print(rows)
[('Microsoft Azure SQL Data Warehouse - 10.0.9248.28 Sep 12 2017 01:08:55 Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation', )]
>>> crsr.close()
>>> conn.close()

But when I use SQLAlchemy, it fails with a mysterious error:

>>> from sqlalchemy import create_engine
>>> e = create_engine("mssql+pyodbc://user:password@serverdsn")
>>> with e.connect() as con:
...     rs = con.execute('select * from users')
...     for row in rs:
...         print(row)
... 

Here is the full stack trace:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/purecarscomputer/anaconda/envs/tensorflow/lib/python3.5/site-packages/sqlalchemy/pool.py", line 1122, in _do_get return self._pool.get(wait, self._timeout) File "/Users/purecarscomputer/anaconda/envs/tensorflow/lib/python3.5/site-packages/sqlalchemy/util/queue.py", line 145, in get raise Empty sqlalchemy.util.queue.Empty

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

I've tried install and uninstall sqlalchemy and searched around on google, but not find a solution. Does anyone have similar problems and have a clue about what is happening?

OS information:

Answer 1

Here's the connection string I used to solve a connection problem with similar symptoms:

import urllib
from sqlalchemy import create_engine

# utilize existing odbc connection to create engine
params = urllib.quote_plus("DRIVER={}; SERVER=server; Database=database; UID=user; PWD=pw")
engine = create_engine("mssql+pyodbc:///?odbc_connect=%s" % params)
