问题:

I am able to create a connection to a local sqlite3 database ( Using Mac OS X 10.5 and Python 2.5.1 ) with this:

conn = sqlite3.connect('/db/MyDb')

How can I connect to this database if it is located on a server ( for example on a server running Ubuntu 8.04 with an IP address of 10.7.1.71 ) , and is not stored locally?

e.g. this does not seem to work:

conn = sqlite3.connect('10.7.1.71./db/MyDb')

回答1:

SQLite is embedded-only. You'll need to mount the remote filesystem before you can access it. And don't try to have more than one machine accessing the SQLite database at a time; SQLite is not built for that. Use something like PostgreSQL instead if you need that.

The sqlite FAQ has an answer relevant to your question. It points out that although multi-machine network access is theoretically possible (using a remote filesystem) it likely won't be reliable unless the filesystem properly supports locks.

If you're accessing it from only one machine and process at a time, however, it should work acceptably, as that page notes (and dependent on the remote filesystem you're using).
