MySQLdb: Operand should contain 1 column(s)

I am trying to insert some data into a MySQL database, using Python and MySQLdb. When I execute the following function in my program, MySQL returns error "1241, 'Operand should contain 1 column(s)'"

User, password and database are correct, the table is existing and all rights are granted.

def write_to_mysql(pname, dat, like, reachs, talker, friendsfans):
''
    try:
        con = mdb.connect(user='user', passwd='password', host='localhost', db='database');
    except Exception. err:
        print(err)

    with con:

        cur = con.cursor()
        cur.execute("INSERT INTO fbinsights (page, datum, likes, reach, talking, fanfriends) VALUES( %s, %s, %s, %s, %s, %s)", (pname, dat, like, reachs, talker, friendsfans))

    connection.commit()

Where's the mistake?

回答1:

@schlamar answered it. Wrong types passed to MySQL.

回答2:

I had this error when I was generating a SELECT query with columns to select enclosed (by mistake) in parentheses: SELECT (id, name, age) FROM members;

Note that it does not raise this error if you have just one column listed in parentheses.
