I'm running VS Code Python 3.12.8 in an Azure Function using Flash and venev. I installed SQLAlchemy to get my postgres SQL going, and I cannot get Alembic to do the first migration.

It errors and will not leave a trace, print or debug line. I only get a stack trace in terminal or out putted in a file log.

I can run this code just fine.. SO I know access, accounts and passwords are correct

from sqlalchemy import create_engine, text

DATABASE_URL = "postgresql://************************/postgres?sslmode=require"

engine = create_engine(DATABASE_URL, pool_pre_ping=True, echo=True)

try:
    with engine.connect() as connection:
        result = connection.execute(text("SELECT version();"))  # ✅ Use `text()`
        print("✅ Connected! PostgreSQL Version:", result.fetchone()[0])
except Exception as e:
    print("❌ SQLAlchemy Connection Failed:", e)

In case it matters, here is my code layout

alembic.ini

# A generic, single-database configuration.

[alembic]
script_location = alembic
sqlalchemy.url = postgresql://%(PGUSER)s:%(PGPASSWORD)s@%(PGHOST)s:%(PGPORT)s/%(PGDATABASE)s?sslmode=require
