Descrizione

Describe the bug

When calling cursor.execute to select a json column from a table you receive a runtime error RuntimeError: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver 18 for SQL Server]The connection is no longer usable because the server response for a previously executed statement was incorrectly formatted.

If you are seeing an exception, include the full exceptions details (message and stack trace).

To reproduce

Include a complete code listing (or project/solution) that we can run to reproduce the issue.

Partial code listings, or multiple fragments of code, will slow down our response or cause us to push the issue back to you to provide code to reproduce the issue.

Run the following tsql in a database with the AdventureWorksLT sample data loaded.

select *
from (SELECT * 
  FROM [SalesLT].[Customer]
  for json AUTO) dt

  create table SalesLT.CustomerJson
    (
        CustomerID int primary key,
        CustomerJson JSON
    )

    insert into SalesLT.CustomerJson (CustomerID, CustomerJson)
    select 1, (SELECT * 
      FROM [SalesLT].[Customer]
      for json AUTO)
with connect(getenv("SQL_CONNECTION_STRING")) as conn: # type: ignore
    with conn.cursor() as cursor:
        cursor.execute("select * from SalesLT.CustomerJson")
        if cursor:
            row = cursor.fetchone()
            if row:
                print(row.CustomerJson)
Expected behavior

A string is returned that is in JSON or convertible to JSON.

Further technical details
