reconnect keyword argument on ClearDB default conn

问题:

I uploaded a Django app to Heroku and than provision the cleardb add-on using these 3 commands from Heroku documentation:

heroku addons:create cleardb:ignite
heroku config | grep CLEARDB_DATABASE_URL
heroku config:set DATABASE_URL='mysql://adffdadf2341:[e-mail]/heroku_db?reconnect=true'

it seems to be O.K and the app is running (but without database). now I try to run:

$ heroku run python manage.py migrate

and this is the error I get:

TypeError: 'reconnect' is an invalid keyword argument for this function

Where does the problem comes from and how can I fix it?

回答1:

Remove ?reconnect=true from the end of DATABASE_URL

The parameters after the database are arguments to the MySQL server. In this case, it asks to reconnect if the connection is dropped. It looks like the MySQLdb package doesn't support that argument.
