I think there are two problems - but the most important is that the syntax

select ? from ... where ..
[download]

isn't valid SQL.

?-style placeholders are used to pass variables into WHERE clauses, not to pass literals into the SELECT statement. I suspect that this is why your query only works if you specify the 4.x protocol level, as that does NOT support placeholders.

I'll still take a look at the issue you opened on GitHub, but I suspect that this is really a client side SQL issue more than anything else.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
