Description

With a freshly built docker container (built 2023-03-27) when trying to run on-call-user-sync to sync LDAP users the following error is encountered

AttributeError: 'Engine' object has no attribute 'execute'

Full error:

From research it turns out that this is due to a breaking change in SQLAlchemy v2.

I have managed to resolve this by pinning SQLAlchemy to less than 2.0.0 in setup.py

sqlalchemy<2.0.0

Thought it was worth brining to your attention so you can pin it in the repo, or updating the sync script to work with the newer version of SQLAlchemy

Research direction

Start with setup.py and src/oncall/user_sync/ldap_sync.py, following the reported engine.execute call in the LDAP sync path. Confirm the supported SQLAlchemy version or compatibility approach, then verify that on-call-user-sync completes without the reported AttributeError.
