SQLITE with python : Adding the database name in SELECT statement

I am using sqlite3 with python, and after connecting to the database and creating a table, sqlite3 shows an error when I try to execute a SELECT statment on the table with the name of the databse in it :
con = sqlite3.connect("my_databse")
cur = con.cursor()
cur.execute('''CREATE TABLE my_table ... ''')
cur.execute("SELECT * FROM my_database.my_table") # this works fine without the name of the database before the table name
but I get this error from sqlite3 :
no such table : my_database.my_table
Is there a way to do a SELECT statment with the name of the database in it ?

The short answer is no you can't do this with SQLite. This is because you already specify the database name with sqlite3.connect() and SQLite3 doesn't allow multiple databases in the same file.

Make sure of the database is in the same directory with the python script. In order to verify this you can use os library and os.listdir() method. After connecting the database and creating the cursor, you can query with the table name.
cur.execute('SELECT * FROM my_table')

Python SQLite - fuse_hidden not deleted

I am trying to setup a python script to get some data and store it into a SQLite database. However when I am running the script a .fuse_hidden file is created.
On windows no .fuse_hidden file is observed but on ubuntu it generates at each call. The .fuse_hidden file seems to contain some form of sql query with input and tables.
I can delete the files without error during runtime but they are not deleted automatically. I make sure to end my connection to the db when I am finished with the query.
lsof give no information.
I am out of ideas on what to try next to get the files removed automatically. Any suggestions?
Testing
In order to confirm that it is nothing wrong with the code I made a simple script
(Assume there is an empty error.db)
import sqlite3
conn = sqlite3.connect("error.db")
cur = conn.cursor()
create_query = """
CREATE TABLE Errors (
name TEXT
);"""
try:
cur.execute(create_query)
except:
pass
cur.execute("INSERT INTO Errors (name) VALUES(?)", ["Test2"])
conn.commit()
cur.close()
conn.close()

Accessing an encrypted SQLite3 database in Python (I have the Key)

I apologize if its redundant but I couldn't seem to find answer anywhere. I set up a password(encryption key) for my database using DB browser for SQLite3. It uses sqlcipher.
Now I cannot access it. I'm not able to provide password\key. Here's my code:
import sqlite3
from Data.Item import item
import sys
conn = sqlite3.connect('maindb.db')
c = conn.cursor()
c.execute("PRAGMA KEY = 'password'")
def items():
c.execute("SELECT * FROM Item")
data=c.fetchall()
details=items()
My platform is Windows.
I've tried pysqlcipher, It does not gets installed throws an error. How do I proceed from here? What should I do?
My goal is to make my database file unreadable for some obvious reasons.
I get the following error:
c.execute("SELECT * FROM Item")
sqlite3.DatabaseError: file is encrypted or is not a database

Data not saving SQLite3 python3.4

I am currently trying to create a sqlite database of peoples names and ip
While my code seems to work when I run it the data doesn't show up when I run SELECT * from ips; in terminal after running SQLite3 ips
Below is my code. Both it and the SELECT * from ips; are running in ~/Desktop/SQL
import sqlite3 as sql
import socket
import struct
def iptoint(ip):
return str(struct.unpack("i",socket.inet_aton(ip))[0])
database = sql.connect("ips")
createTable = True
if createTable:
database.execute('''CREATE TABLE main.ips
(FIRST_NAME TEXT PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL,
SECOND_NAME TEXT NOT NULL,
IP INT32 NOT NULL);''')
sampleIps = [("Edward","E","60.222.168.44")]
for first,second,ip in sampleIps:
string = "INSERT INTO ips VALUES ('%s','%s','%s');"%(first,second,iptoint(ip))
print(string)
#Printing the string gives me INSERT INTO ips VALUES ('Edward','E','749264444');
database.execute("INSERT INTO ips VALUES ('%s','%s','%s');"%(first,second,iptoint(ip)))
database.close()
My computer is running OSX 10.11.4, python 3.4 and SQLite 3.14.1
I have tried changing ips to main.ips and back

It doesn't look like you are committing to the database. You need to commit before closing the connection in order to actually save your changes to the database.
database.commit()

using python 2.7 to query sqlite3 database and getting "sqlite3 operational error no such table"

My simple test code is listed below. I created the table already and can query it using the SQLite Manager add-in on Firefox so I know the table and data exist. When I run the query in python (and using the python shell) I get the no such table error
def TroyTest(self, acctno):
conn = sqlite3.connect('TroyData.db')
curs = conn.cursor()
v1 = curs.execute('''
SELECT acctvalue
FROM balancedata
WHERE acctno = ? ''', acctno)
print v1
conn.close()

When you pass SQLite a non-existing path, it'll happily open a new database for you, instead of telling you that the file did not exist before. When you do that, it'll be empty and you'll instead get a "No such table" error.
You are using a relative path to the database, meaning it'll try to open the database in the current directory, and that is probably not where you think it is..
The remedy is to use an absolute path instead:
conn = sqlite3.connect('/full/path/to/TroyData.db')
You need to loop over the cursor to see results:
curs.execute('''
SELECT acctvalue
FROM balancedata
WHERE acctno = ? ''', acctno)
for row in curs:
print row[0]
or call fetchone():
print curs.fetchone() # prints whole row tuple

The problem is the SQL statment. you must specify the db name and after the table name...
'''SELECT * FROM db_name.table_name WHERE acctno = ? '''
