Test runner fails with Django 1.2.1 and psycopg2 2.4.2

[Andrew Brookins]

Hey,

Yesterday I started seeing test runner failures with Django 1.2.1 and psycog2 2.4.2.

Here's the traceback (where [project_dir] is the path to my virtualenv):

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./manage.py", line 11, in <module>
    execute_manager(settings)
  File "[project_dir]/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 438, in execute_manager
    utility.execute()
  File "[project_dir]/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 379, in execute
    self.fetch_command(subcommand).run_from_argv(self.argv)
  File "[project_dir]/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/core/management/base.py", line 191, in run_from_argv
    self.execute(*args, **options.__dict__)
  File "[project_dir]/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/core/management/base.py", line 218, in execute
    output = self.handle(*args, **options)
  File "[project_dir]/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/core/management/commands/test.py", line 37, in handle
    failures = test_runner.run_tests(test_labels)
  File "[project_dir]/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/test/simple.py", line 313, in run_tests
    old_config = self.setup_databases()
  File "[project_dir]/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/test/simple.py", line 270, in setup_databases
    connection.creation.create_test_db(self.verbosity, autoclobber=not self.interactive)
  File "[project_dir]/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/db/backends/creation.py", line 346, in create_test_db
    test_database_name = self._create_test_db(verbosity, autoclobber)
  File "[project_dir]/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/db/backends/creation.py", line 381, in _create_test_db
    self.set_autocommit()
  File "[project_dir]/lib/python2.6/site-packages/django/db/backends/creation.py", line 448, in set_autocommit
    self.connection.connection.autocommit = True
psycopg2.ProgrammingError: autocommit cannot be used inside a transaction

Reverting to psycopg2 2.4.1 fixes the problem. Anyone seen this?

Best,
Andrew

Looks like there's already a ticket (my search-fu failed me):

do you get these errors with:

'OPTIONS': {
'autocommit': True,
}

?
