MySQLdb not INSERTING, _mysql does fine

Question

Okay, I log onto the MySQL command-line client as root. I then open or otherwise run a python app using the MySQLdb module as root. When I check the results using python (IDLE), everything looks fine. When I use the MySQL command-line client, no INSERT has occurred. If I change things around to _mysql instead of MySQLdb, everything works fine. I'd appreciate any clarification(s).

"Works" until IDLE/Virtual machine is reset:

import MySQLdb
db = MySQLdb.connect(user='root', passwd='*******',db='test')
cursor = db.cursor()
cursor.execute("""INSERT INTO test VALUES ('somevalue');""",)

Works:

import _mysql
db = _mysql.connect(user='root', passwd='*******',db='test')
db.query("INSERT INTO test VALUES ('somevalue');")

Answer 1

您可以使用db.commit()提交数据或在_mysql.connect(...)之后设置db.autocommit() _mysql.connect(...)以自动提交请求。

Answer 2

I think they use different autocommit settings. Use commit() after inserting data.
