manage.py dbshell and mysql problem on Windows

[trung]

manage.py dbshell on windows is so strange. I am using mysql as my backend database.
After changing the client.py file in site-packages\django\db\backends\mysql it runs but I cannot do anything with it. It closes immediately when I type something.

client.py

from django.conf import settings
import os

def runshell():

args = []
db = settings.DATABASE_OPTIONS.get('db', settings.DATABASE_NAME)
user = settings.DATABASE_OPTIONS.get('user', settings.DATABASE_USER)
passwd = settings.DATABASE_OPTIONS.get('passwd', settings.DATABASE_PASSWORD)
host = settings.DATABASE_OPTIONS.get('host', settings.DATABASE_HOST)
port = settings.DATABASE_OPTIONS.get('port', settings.DATABASE_PORT)
defaults_file = settings.DATABASE_OPTIONS.get('read_default_file')
# Seems to be no good way to set sql_mode with CLI

if defaults_file:

args += % defaults_file

if user:

args += % user

if passwd:

args += % passwd

if host:

args += % host

if port:

args += % port

if db:

args += [db]

del args[0]

os.execvp('mysql', args)

After adding two space characters in arguments, it works !

if defaults_file:

args += % defaults_file

if user:

args += % user

if passwd:

args += % passwd

if host:

args += % host

if port:

args += % port

if db:

args += % db

del args[0]
#print args
os.execvp('mysql', args)
