Fixed #36112 -- Fall back to BaseDatabaseOperations.last_executed_query() in Oracle backend. #20312

Trac ticket number

Branch description

This PR fixes the issue described in ticket #36112, where DatabaseOperations.last_executed_query() in the Oracle backend may return None when a query fails. This causes SQL formatting to crash under --debug-sql.

Following the core team’s guidance on the ticket (Jacob Walls & Mariusz Felisiak), backend implementations should fall back to super().last_executed_query() rather than returning None.

This patch:

Adds the fallback for Oracle.
Matches the expected backend contract.
Has no behavioral impact on successful queries.
Only affects debug/inspection paths.
Requires no new tests (ticket metadata: Needs tests: no).

This completes the cleanup after #36380.

Added the requested fallback tests for last_executed_query().
All Checks have passed. This PR is ready for review.

This is not a regression test. TBH it is not a test at all.

VIZZARD-X · 2025-11-27T06:36:32Z

Thanks for the review.

I've updated the patch to include a proper regression test under
tests/backends/oracle/, guarded to avoid import errors on non-Oracle
environments.

The test now exercises the real Oracle backend implementation and verifies the
intended fallback to BaseDatabaseOperations.last_executed_query() when
cursor.statement is missing.

All CI checks have passed. This should be ready for another look.

Why do you need a new instance of DatabaseOperations? Also it should be enough to check that result of last_executed_query() is not None.

Suggested change

# Oracle backend import guard.

# Importing oracle.operations will fail on

# environments without the oracledb driver.

try:

from django.db.backends.oracle.operations import DatabaseOperations

except Exception:

DatabaseOperations = None

@skipUnless(connection.vendor == "oracle", "Oracle-specific tests")

class TestLastExecutedQueryFallback(TestCase):

def test_last_executed_query_fallback(self):

if DatabaseOperations is None:

self.skipTest("Oracle backend not available")

class FakeCursor:

# Simulates a cursor lacking the `statement` attribute

pass

cursor = FakeCursor()

sql = "SELECT 1"

params = []

ops = DatabaseOperations(None)

# Expected fallback from BaseDatabaseOperations

expected = BaseDatabaseOperations(None).last_executed_query(cursor, sql, params)

self.assertEqual(ops.last_executed_query(cursor, sql, params), expected)

@skipUnless(connection.vendor == "oracle", "Oracle specific tests")

class TestLastExecutedQueryFallback(TestCase):

def test_last_executed_query_fallback(self):

class FakeCursor:

# Simulates a cursor lacking the `statement` attribute

pass

cursor = FakeCursor()

sql = "SELECT 1"

params = []

self.assertIsNotNone(connection.ops.last_executed_query(cursor, sql, params))

We could also use a real cursor with an invalid SQL statement, e.g.

with connection.cursor() as cursor: sql = "INVALID SQL" params = [] cursor.execute(sql, params) self.assertEqual(connection.ops.last_executed_query(cursor, sql, params), sql)

django/db/backends/oracle/operations.py

        # https://python-oracledb.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api_manual/cursor.html#Cursor.statement
        # The DB API definition does not define this attribute.
-        statement = cursor.statement
+        statement = getattr(cursor, "statement", None)


As far as I'm aware it's unnecessary.

felixxm · 2025-11-27T07:55:49Z

The same behavior can be observe and should be fixed on PostgreSQL.

…executed_query().

VIZZARD-X · 2025-11-27T10:19:07Z

Done.
Per your feedback, I've updated the patch to:

Restore Oracle’s original statement = cursor.statement logic without unnecessary getattr().
Apply the same fallback behavior to the PostgreSQL backend.
Add backend-specific regression tests for both Oracle and PostgreSQL using the patterns you suggested.

Ensure that all backends now consistently fall back to BaseDatabaseOperations.last_executed_query() whenever the backend cannot provide an executed SQL string.

The changes are minimal and isolated to the fallback path only.
All CI checks were green previously, and this update keeps the patch aligned with the backend contract.

This should be ready for another review.
Thanks for your guidance.

assertIsNotNone is redundant

Suggested change

self.assertIsNotNone(result)

self.assertEqual(result, sql)

self.assertEqual(result, sql)

As far as I'm aware, this test should pass for all database backends, so we can move it to the
tests.backends.base.test_operations.DatabaseOperationTests class.

                    key, force_str(params[key], errors="replace")
                )
-        return statement
+        return statement or super().last_executed_query(cursor, sql, params)


I think we should use super().last_executed_query() only when statement is None

Suggested change

return statement or super().last_executed_query(cursor, sql, params)

return super().last_executed_query(cursor, sql, params) if statement is None else statement

I’m currently in my final university exam period, so I’ll be slower to update PRs for the next few days.
I will return to complete all pending changes right after exams conclude.
Thanks for your patience — I’ll follow up soon...
